Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crystal growth device technology, specifically a high-efficiency crystal growth device. Background Technology

[0002] Nickel sulfate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NiSO4. It is mainly used in electroplating, nickel batteries, catalysts, and the production of other nickel salts. It is also used as a mordant in printing and dyeing, and as a metal colorant. Battery-grade nickel sulfate is an important raw material for lithium battery cathode materials. Its production process requires crystallization and purification through a crystal growth device. Traditional crystal growth devices mostly involve direct reaction inside the tank, which is very inconvenient for subsequent handling and lacks temperature control and crystal formation detection, resulting in low crystal growth efficiency. Therefore, we propose a high-efficiency crystal growth device. Utility Model Content
