End Uses
Nickel's greatest use by far is in stainless and heat-resisting steels for consumer and industrial applications such as kitchen sinks, cutlery, pots and pans, and appliances.
Nickel can be found in more than 300,000 products for consumer, industrial, military, transport, aerospace, marine and architectural applications. Its corrosion resistance and high strength over a wide range of temperatures make nickel a natural choice for today's technologically advanced world.
Some of the most exciting applications are in the areas of rechargeable batteries for hybrid and electric vehicles, and in nickel-based alloys for new high-efficiency gas turbines used for generating energy.
