摘要
High purity nickel powder (99.5% Ni) was prepared by direct hydrogen reduction of commercial NiO in an acidic slurry in an autoclave with a yield of approximately 100% at 250 degrees C, initial pH 5.4 and 300 psi partial hydrogen pressure. It was found that the initial pH of the solution and the addition of NiSO4 play critical roles in the NiO/Ni powder conversion process. They provide an adequate acidic media and a source of SO42- counter ions for dissolving NiO into Ni2+ ions, while the subsequent reduction of Ni2+ ions to metallic nickel proceeds.
