Scope of the Report

The global Aluminum-Nickel Catalyst market size is predicted to grow from US$ 515 million in 2025 to US$ 729 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2026 to 2032.

Aluminum-Nickel catalyst, commonly known as Raney nickel, is a high-surface-area solid catalyst made from a nickel-aluminum alloy. It is activated by treating the alloy with concentrated sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to leach out the aluminum, leaving behind a porous, active nickel skeleton used primarily for hydrogenating organic compounds, including in pharmaceutical and petroleum industries.

In 2025, global aluminum-nickel catalyst production reached 26,500 tons, with an average selling price of US$19,828 per ton. Total capacity was approximately 40,000 tons, and the industry's gross profit margin was approximately 15%–25%. Cost structure: direct materials accounted for approximately 90%, manufacturing costs for approximately 9%, and labor costs for approximately 1%. Industry chain: upstream consists of raw materials such as electrolytic nickel and aluminum, while downstream applications are mainly in the organic chemical industry.

Global key Aluminum-Nickel Catalyst players cover WR Grace & Co., BASF, Nikko Rica, Evonik, Johnson Matthey, etc.
