Abstract
A process is described for making porous nickel bodies of various shapes. The process is advantageous because it permits casting, molding or extruding into various shapes before sintering. Such porous nickel bodies are useful as plaques in various kinds of batteries as well as filters, sieves and inert bodies for holding catalysts. Porous nickel bodies might also be useful for promoting heterogeneous gaseous reactions (with or without catalysis) particularly for gaseous exchange reactions.
