| Chemical Properties | Back Directory | [Description]
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. | [Appearance]

| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [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.
| [Preparation]
Nickel nitrate hexahydrate may be prepared by several methods based on the reaction of dilute nitric acid on nickel powder, nickel oxide or nickel carbonate. The reaction is exothermic and requires controlled cooling during production. The hexahydrate can be dehydrated to anhydrous salt by treatment with fuming nitric acid.

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. | [General Description]
Nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate (Ni(NO3)2.6H2O) is a hydrated nickel(II) salt. Its thermal degradation has been investigated by thermogravimetric methods under quasi-isothermal conditions. | [reaction suitability]
reagent type: catalyst
core: nickel | [Purification Methods]
Crystallise it from water (3.3g/mL) by partial evaporation in a desiccator. Store it in a desiccator as it is deliquescent. |
