SmartNi Nickel Tablets
Nickel tablets, which have replaced traditional liquid nickel solutions, stand out with their ease of use, measurability and purity rates. These nickel products in tablet form provide a homogeneous distribution by dissolving in electrolytic plating baths. This increases the plating quality and optimizes the process time.
Why Nickel?
- Advantages of Nickel when working with reactive steels;
- Prevents high coating thicknesses.
- Prevents growth of Fe-Zn alloy layer.
- Prevents dark grey coatings.
- Prevents peeling of coating.
- Increases the coating homogenity.
- Zinc saving from 5% to 15% in weight.
- Increases coating ductility.
- Smoother and brighter surface finish.
- Increases the fluidity of the Zn bath.
- Aesthetical coating appearance.
Why SmartNi Nickel Tablets?
- Up to %30 reduction in nickel usage compared to Zinc-Nickel alloy ingots and powder Nickel applications.
- Zinc Nikel Alloy Ingot, 1.7 kg Ni addition per ton zinc.
- Nickel Powder 1.8 kg Ni addition per ton zinc.
- Nickel Tablet, 1.2 kg Ni addition per ton zinc.
- The implementation is very simple and fast.
- No special expertise or tools required.
- Nickel floats on the surface of the zinc bath more than other methods, therefore does not settle down to zinc ash and dross.
- Nickel automatically dissolves in zinc bath.
- No dependency on purchasing of HG / SHG Zinc.

Why ANI METAL SmartNi?
- Others: Nickel + Wax
- ANI Metal SmartNi: Nickel + Wax + X (X is our “know-how”).
- ANI Metal SmartNi provides a heat shield during burn-off, thus preventing consumption due to oxidation.
- Increases the solubility in zinc.
- Prevents precipitation, therefore helps reduce dross formation
Smart Technology: SmartNi
ANI Metal has introduced the SmartNi Nickel Tablets brand to the market by combining its years of experience with technology. These smart nickel tablets offer the opportunity to manage bath parameters in a more controlled manner thanks to their stable dissolution profile. Especially in galvanizing facilities with high production tempo, production processes progress uninterruptedly and efficiently with SmartNi.
SmartNi not only provides pure nickel contribution; it also minimizes the formation of unwanted impurities in the bath. This means longer bath life and less maintenance. In addition, the formulation obtained thanks to SmartNi’s special production process provides stable coating even at high current densities.
Sandelin Effect and Surface Quality
One of the most common problems encountered in galvanized coatings, sandelin effect, causes excessive zinc diffusion, especially on steel surfaces with low silicon content, creating a thick and brittle coating. This situation leads to an undesirable appearance in terms of aesthetics as well as a decrease in mechanical strength.
SmartNi in the form of nickel tablets offers an effective solution to this problem. Thanks to the controlled solubility of smart tablets, the nickel level in the galvanized bath is kept in balance and the sandelin effect is significantly suppressed. Thus, ideal coating results are obtained both in terms of aesthetics and mechanics.
A Brand That Makes a Difference in the Sector: ANI Metal
