BIS CERTIFICATION FOR NICKEL POWDER IS 7506:1987

As per the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), manufacturers aiming to distribute nickel powder in India must obtain ISI Mark certification. Certification is compulsory because nickel powder falls under the purview of IS 7506:1987, where individual nickel particles, meticulously extracted from elemental nickel metal, contribute to its composition. Nickel powder is produced through diverse techniques such as chemical reduction, atomization, and electrolysis, resulting in particles of varying sizes, spanning from small nanoparticles to large micrometer-sized particles. The powder's characteristics and shape can be customized to cater to a broad spectrum of applications, with its form being dictated by the manufacturing process, either spherical or irregular.

Products categorized as Nickel Powder must adhere strictly to the Indian Standard IS 7506:1987 and must display the Standard Mark issued under license from the Bureau of Indian Standards as per Scheme-1. Manufacturers in the nickel powder industry place significant emphasis on this standard, as products that conform to IS 7506:1987 are guaranteed to meet precise quality criteria. Esteemed manufacturers ensure performance, consistency, and purity in nickel powder manufactured in accordance with this standard, rendering it suitable for various production processes.
