General description

Nickel(II) Acetate, Anhydrous is a water-soluble crystalline compound with solubility in methanol. We provide it for research purposes with a purity of ≥ 99.9%, anhydrous, and battery grade. It features low sulfate and chloride content and lower levels of metal traces. Our Nickel(II) Acetate, Anhydrous, ≥99.9% trace metals basis serves as a suitable precursor for the synthesis of Cathode active materials through the sol-gel synthesis method.

Application

Nickel(II) Acetate, anhydrous, finds extensive use in research and development (R&D), particularly in the field of chemistry for the synthesis of nanomaterials, composites, electrodes, and catalysts across various applications. Specifically, Nickel(II) Acetate, anhydrous, battery grade is the perfect choice for battery applications in synthesizing cathodes using various synthesis routes.


For example: Nickel(II) acetate, anhydrous, is employed in the synthesis of spinel Lithium Nickel Manganese Oxide (LNMO) using a precipitation method, in the presence of Manganese(II) Acetate and Manganese Oxalate in a microemulsion system. The resulting porous nanorods of spinel-type LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4, composed of assembled nanoparticles, have been investigated as cathode materials for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, demonstrating excellent performance in high-rate capability and long cycle life. In one of the studies, it shows that Nickel(II) Acetate, anhydrous, in conjunction with tetrabutyl titanate, has been utilized as a precursor in the presence of ethylene glycol to synthesize porous NiTiO3 nanorods using an ethylene glycol-mediated route, followed by calcination at 600 °C at room temperature. These porous nanorods have demonstrated excellent performance in the visible light photocatalytic degradation of nitrobenzene, making them a promising material for visible light photocatalysis applications. Furthermore, Nickel(II) Acetate, anhydrous, has been studied for its application as a precursor in the synthesis of N-doped sponge nickel, comprising interconnected Ni micro/nanofibers, prepared through a hydrothermal method using nickel acetate followed by annealing in NH3. This unique catalyst exhibits a 3D porous structure and high electronic conductivity, making it suitable for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in applications such as water splitting and rechargeable metal-air batteries.. Nickel(II) acetate anhydrous Interestingly, Nickel(II) Acetate, anhydrous, has found application in polymer solar cells utilizing poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and indene-C60 bisadduct (ICBA), where it is employed as the hole collection layer. After thermal annealing, nickel acetate demonstrates high transparency, suitable energy levels, and a high hole mobility, establishing its potential as an alternative to conventional PEDOT:PSS for the hole collection layer in these solar cells.
