Abstract: |
The reduction of divalent nickel with hydrazine hydrate from alkaline ammonia solutions at elevated temperatures was studied. A procedure to synthesize finely divided nickel powders was proposed. The morphology of the objects obtained under various synthesis conditions was investigated by scanning electron microscopy; it was shown that both needle-like and spherical particles can form. The specific surface area of the synthesized metallic nickel powders was determined by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption to be within the range 5–20 m2/g, depending on the synthesis conditions (the concentration of the initial salt in the solution, the pH, and the temperature). X-ray powder diffraction analysis showed that all the powders are mixtures of two phases: nickel (to 99%) and nickel hydroxide. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrated that a particle of the powders consists of a nickel(0) core coated with several atomic layers of nickel hydroxide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
