General description

Nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate is a water-soluble inorganic compound. It is a cost-effective compound that finds applications in electroplating, nickel-plating, and as an NH3 absorbent in gas masks.

Application

Nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate can be used as:      
  • A precursor for nickel oxide (NiO) films, which are used as hole transport layers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).     
  • An additive to the electron transport layer (ETL) in perovskite solar cells to improve their performance, particularly the open-circuit voltage.
  • An effective dopant for synthesizing conductive polymer composites for potential applications in flexible electronics, and sensors.     
  • A precursor in the synthesis of nickel nanothorn particles via hydrothermal method.
