Nickel (Ni), is a chemical element and ferromagnetic metal of Group 10 (VIIIb) of the periodic table. It is silvery white, tough, and hard, it is extreemly resistant to oxidation and corrosion.

It is a familiar because of its use in coins but is important as a pure metal and in alloys, in particular in the manufacture of stailess steel for which over half of the worlds nickel is used. It is also used for nickel and copper alloys, aswell as alloy steels, and in nickel plating of iron and brass, and in coating chemistry equipment with a shny metallic finish.

Nickel coated stainless was invented in the early 1900's and was used as a cladding material in a number of high profile buildings in the 20's and 30's, such as, quite early, the Savoy hotel in London, then the Chrysler and Empire State Building in New York City in the 30's. The introduction of curtain walling as a modular construction method in the 50's continued to grow the demand for the use of nickel in stainless steels structural elements up to the Louvre pyramid in Paris, which continues right up to today.

For every ton of steel produced in 2018 an average of 1.85 tons of carbon dioxide were emitted, this equated to about 8 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. Steel and stainless steel however can and are recycled, depending on end use, an average of around 85% of steel is recycled, whilst over 99% of steel from scrap cars is recycled.

As a compound, nickel also has a number of chemical uses; as a catalyst for hydrogenation, cathodes for rechargeable batteries, pigments aswell as being essential nutrient for some microorganisms and plants.
