In 2025, global high porosity nickel foam production reached approximately 0.058 million tons, with an average global market price of around US$ 22,000 per ton.
The gross profit margin of major companies in the industry is between 30% – 50%.
In 2025, the global production capacity of high porosity nickel foam was approximately 0.077 million tons.
High porosity nickel foam is a three-dimensional porous metal material characterized by high surface area, interconnected pore structure, and excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. It is widely used as a functional substrate in electrochemical systems, offering efficient charge transfer, structural support, and corrosion resistance under demanding operating conditions.
The industrial chain includes upstream nickel raw materials, alloying elements, foaming agents, and surface treatment chemicals. The midstream focuses on foam forming, pore structure control, sintering or electroplating processes, and precision cutting. Downstream applications mainly include lithium-ion and nickel-based batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors, catalytic carriers, filtration systems, and advanced thermal management components.
The high porosity nickel foam market is experiencing rapid growth driven by the expansion of energy storage, fuel cell technologies, and advanced electrochemical applications. Its unique porous structure enables efficient electron transport, electrolyte penetration, and high reaction surface area, making it a critical material for next-generation batteries and hydrogen energy systems. Demand is further supported by electrification, renewable energy integration, and development of high-performance thermal management solutions. Continuous improvements in pore uniformity, mechanical strength, and material purity enhance reliability and application scope. As global investment in clean energy and advanced materials accelerates, high porosity nickel foam is expected to remain a fast-growing segment with strong long-term potential.
