Powdered Nickel Specification Requirements

The program, AXIS, was specifically designed to analyse fibre diffraction patterns similar to that shown in Figure 1, although some of the methods described in this chapter may be extended to other types of pattern if required. The fibre patterns are recorded on flat film using pinhole collimated, nickel-filtered CuKor radiation, and finely powdered calcite is dusted onto the specimen to provide a calibration ring of spacing 0.3035 nm. 

For specialised applications where electrical conductivity is required, such as antistatic flooring or shielding of electromagnetic induction, specific carbon black pigment/filler is used. Copper and nickel metal powders have also been studied (112). A review is available of the electrical properties of polymers filled with different types of conducting particles (416).
