Porous nickel foam is a product composed of pure nickel. It possesses a high level of porosity, providing a significantly large surface area. This characteristic makes it suitable for applications that require a high surface-to-volume ratio. Nickel foam is widely used as an electrode in photoelectrochemical systems, a substrate for photocatalysis, and for the construction of fuel cell electrodes (such as platinum-coated electrodes).

In these applications, a large surface area is crucial as it enhances surface reactions and improves system efficiency. Additionally, nickel foam finds application as a current collector in supercapacitors. Its porous structure and high strength also make it suitable for applications involving vibration and noise absorption.
