• Description: Nickel (II) nitrate hexahydrate is the hexahydrate form of the nickel (II) nitrate. Nickel nitrate (chemical formula: Ni(NO3)2) is manufactured by the reaction of nickel oxide with nitric acid. The nickel (II) nitrate hexahydrate can be used as a precursor during the manufacturing of other nickel salts and supported nickel catalysts. For example, it is the precursor for the manufacturing of nickel sulfide-reduced graphene oxide (RGO) composite powders. It can also be used for the manufacturing of nickel and nickel oxide nanocrystals impregnated O-MWCNTs which is useful in semiconductor industries. Moreover, it can also be used in electroplating and as a mordent in textile dyeing. Finally, it can be used to improve the cycling stability and rate capability o Li2MnO2. Nickel (II) nitrate hexahydrate appears as green crystals and substantially soluble in water. It is stable, a strong oxidiser, and incompatible with reducing agents. It has wide industrial applications in nickel plating as catalysts and is indirectly associated with other industries of nickel alloy manufacturers, nickel miners, smelters and refiners, nickel platers, and exposure to alloys, for example, in coinage.
• Uses: Nickel plating, manufacturing of ceramic colorsNickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate is used as a precursor in the manufacturing of other nickel salts and supported nickel catalysts. It finds use as a catalyst in organic synthesis. Further it is used in electroplating and as a mordent in textile dyeing. It is a precursor for preparing nickel sulfide-reduced graphene oxide (RGO) composite powders with high initial capacities and good cycling performance. It can be employed in the preparation of nickel and nickel oxide nanocrystals impregnated O-MWCNTs (oxygen-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes) with potential applications in semiconductor industries. It finds use in improving cycling stability ad rate capability of Li2MnO3. Nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate may be used as a precursor for the synthesis of [Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 powders, Ni(II) oxide aerogels and crystalline nickel complexes, [Ni(C6H7N3O)2(NO3)2] and [Ni(C6H7N3O)3](NO3)2·H2O.
