About this material
The anode tab has to weld to copper foil on one end and to a nickel-plated terminal on the other. Pure nickel does both: it forms a low-resistance weld to copper without the brittle intermetallics that plague aluminium-copper joints, and it resists the reducing environment at anode potential.
Annealed temper matters more than thickness. A hard-temper strip cracks at the weld nugget after a few hundred flex cycles; the annealed grades specified here survive folding and vibration, which is why elongation is on the certificate.
Documentation, controls and care
Quality controls
- Certificate of analysis per batch
- Moisture by Karl Fischer, reported per lot
- Trace metal screening
- Retained samples held for 12 months
Handling & storage
- Store in a dry environment below 30 °C, away from direct sunlight.
- Equilibrate to room temperature before opening to avoid condensation on the material.
- Dry at 60–80 °C under vacuum before use where the process requires it.
