Nickel Oxide Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- nickel(II) Oxide
- Nickelous Oxide
- NiO
Nickel oxide supplier enquiries in Malaysia cover nickel(II) oxide, also called nickelous oxide or NiO. It is commonly supplied as a green to grey-green powder for nickel chemistry, ceramic colour, catalyst preparation and speciality materials work.
Technical, ceramic, pigment, catalyst and higher-purity grades are selected by particle size, nickel content basis and impurity limits. The required grade depends on whether the powder will be fired into a glaze, converted in a catalyst route or used directly in an electronic or battery material process.
Ceramic and glass makers use nickel oxide for controlled colour and fired effects, while chemical manufacturers use it as a feedstock for other nickel compounds. Catalyst, battery and laboratory buyers may require tighter controls on trace metals, moisture or particle distribution than a general technical enquiry.
Send the required grade, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation, route and timing are confirmed with the quotation, and supply is subject to applicable requirements.

Nickel Oxide grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical nickel(II) oxide | green to grey-green powder | — | General nickel chemistry, manufacture of other nickel compounds and industrial process work where NiO identity, particle size and nickel basis are specified. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Ceramic and pigment grade nickel oxide | fine green powder | — | Ceramic glaze, enamel and glass colour formulations where the fired shade, particle size and impurity limits are matched to the buyer's process. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Catalyst and materials grade nickel oxide | fine powder | — | Catalyst preparation and battery or electronic-material routes that require a defined nickel oxide precursor with controlled impurities. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Higher-purity nickel oxide | fine green powder | — | Laboratory, research and speciality materials work where tighter trace-metal or particle-size limits are written into the specification. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |

Common questions about nickel oxide
What identity does the nickel oxide page cover?
This page covers nickel(II) oxide, NiO, commonly called nickelous oxide. It is a green to grey-green powder used in nickel chemistry, ceramics, catalysts and materials work. State the oxide phase if your specification distinguishes NiO from nickel hydroxide or another nickel compound.
Which nickel oxide grade suits ceramic or glass colour?
Ceramic and pigment grades are selected for particle size, fired colour and impurity limits rather than by the word technical alone. Send the glaze or glass formulation, required shade and any limits on iron, copper or other trace metals so the quoted grade can be matched.
Is nickel oxide the same as nickel carbonate?
No. They are different products. Nickel carbonate is a carbonate precursor that decomposes to nickel oxide on heating, while NiO is the oxide already present in the charge. Request the identity named by the process instead of treating the two powders as interchangeable.
What specifications should be included in a nickel oxide enquiry?
Give the grade, nickel content or assay basis, particle-size distribution, moisture and trace-metal limits, plus the intended application, quantity and delivery location. Catalyst and electronic-material buyers should also state any support, firing or impurity requirement that controls performance.
How should nickel oxide powder be stored?
Keep it in closed containers in a dry store and minimise dust during transfer or blending. Follow the safety information issued with the quoted grade and use the handling controls required by the buyer's own workplace procedure.
How is nickel oxide priced for Malaysian industrial buyers?
The quotation depends on the requested grade, particle size, specification, quantity and delivery location. Send those details with the enquiry so the offer can be issued with its own validity period and confirmed commercial terms.
