Nickel 200 is commercially pure nickel. Pure nickel has outstanding purity what leads material to extreme malleable and ductile properties and increase life period significantly. Nickel 200 has good mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance to alkalis i.e. Sodium hydroxide. It also has good electrical, thermal and magneto-strictive properties.
