About hpulcas GmbH

hpulcas is an acronym for High Purity Ultra Low Carbon and Sulfur.

hpulcas GmbH has developed and implemented a new process to fabricate high purity nickel. The new grade of hpulcas nickel with a purity of 99.98 % meets and surpasses the requirements for Ni 270. The key to the process is the use of high purity cathode plates instead of nickel powder or melt metallurgy. The cathode plates are hot rolled to a uniform 6 mm, levelled, brushed, cut to rectangular format and joined by welding. The strip thus manufactured is then rolled down to the required thickness by cold rolling and interim annealing. The high degree of purity results in special and reproducible properties, which are used in demanding applications ranging from temperature sensors and controls, welding and brazing products, battery and supercapacitor components, diffusion barriers in roll bonded clad metals, contacts and thermobimetals. The products include sheets, strips, foil, coil and wire. A wide range of dimension and mechanical and surface properties can be provided.
