HP4900 is a specialized adsorbent engineered with a porous polymer matrix containing nanoscale functional sites. It selectively forms stable complexes with various silicon species (e.g., SiO₃²⁻, SiO₄⁴⁻) in nickel sulfate solutions, achieving ultra-high-purity nickel feedstock for high-performance ternary cathode materials in lithium batteries.
Leveraging nanoporous architecture and optimized hydrodynamic diffusion properties, HP4900 delivers rapid adsorption kinetics, minimal nickel salt carryover (<5% loss), and sub-1 mg/L silicon residuals. Its robust structure ensures long-term stability in harsh industrial environments.
Ultra-High Selectivity
Preferential adsorption of silicon over coexisting anions (e.g., SO₄²⁻, Cl⁻) with >10⁴ selectivity coefficient.
Nanostructured Efficiency
Nanopores (2–10 nm) enable 3× faster mass transfer compared to conventional adsorbents.
Mechanical Durability
Maintains >95% bed integrity after 500+ cycles at 50°C.
Broad Compatibility
Operates effectively in pH 3–14 and 5–50°C, suitable for concentrated nickel sulfate systems.
Lithium Battery Cathode Purification:
Reduces silicon content from 20 mg/L to<1 mg/L in nickel sulfate solutions, enhancing cathode material energy density by ≥15%
Industrial Wastewater Treatment:
Achieves<0.5 mg/L silicon discharge compliance for electronics manufacturing.
HP4900 is optimized for:
1. Lithium Battery Manufacturing
Deep purification of nickel sulfate solutions in ternary cathode precursor production.
2. Water Treatment
Ultra-low-silicon drinking water production (<0.1 mg/L).
Metallurgical Processing
Silicon removal from nickel/cobalt hydrometallurgical streams.
