Abstract

The roles of NH3 · H2O and NH4HCO3 in the preparation of Ni particles from NiCl2 · 6H2O aqueous solution by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis were investigated. The results showed that both ammonia and ammonium bicarbonate had a remarkable influence on the solution chemistry and the resulting particles, and could significantly modify the reaction pathway. After the addition of these additives to the precursor solution, intermediate NiO was formed initially, followed by reduction to metallic Ni in the presence of a reductive gas. H2 is a powerful reducing agent; however, metallic Ni could also be obtained in the absence of H2 in the carrier gas. In the latter case, it was shown that NH3 was primarily responsible for Ni formation. A description of the mechanisms and processes of Ni formation during spray pyrolysis is proposed.
