Nickel Flake Product Sheet
NOVAMET® Nickel Flakes are bright, attractive particles ideally suited for applications such as decorative pigments in high performance paints and powder coatings. Nickel Flakes are available in leafing (L) and water (W) grade versions. Nickel’s pewter-like appearance and rich luster are unique among metallic pigments. Leafing pigments tend to concentrate near the surface of a paint film creating a metallic appearance. Water grade pigments are non-leafing in solvent systems and randomly disperse throughout the paint film.
This product is available as standard nickel flakes, a nickel flake paste, or as an HCA-1 conductive flake.
Conductive Nickel Flake Product Sheet
NOVAMET® HCA-1 Conductive Nickel Flake HCA-1 is a nickel flake that has an irregular, platelet shape with an aspect ratio approaching 20 to 1. The thickness of the flake is about 1 micron. HCA-1 is heat treated in a controlled atmosphere to remove surface oxidation for enhanced conductivity.
HCA-1 is an excellent choice for solvent and waterborne paint formulations using acrylic, urethane, epoxy and vinyl polymer systems. HCA-1 is widely used in EMI/RFI shielding coatings for electronic components. Other applications include conductive inks, adhesives and anti-static floor coatings.
