• Uses: Storage batteries. Nickel oxide (NiO) is produced from nickel minerals to form nickel oxide when heated to 400°C, which is then reduced at a temperature of 600°C, resulting in the formation of nickel oxide. It is used as electrodes in fuel cells. Nickel oxide is used in the ceramic industry for making frit, ferrites, and coloring porcelain. The oxide in sinter form is used in the production of nickel-steel alloys. It supplies oxygen to the melt for removal of carbon as carbon dioxide. Some other important uses of nickel oxide include preparation of many nickel salts, specialty chemicals, and nickel catalysts. It also is used as an electrode in fuel cells. ▼▲ Industry Application Role/benefit Chemical manufacture Manufacture of nickel salts and other nickle compounds Source of nickel Manufacture of metallic nickel Manufacture of nickel steel alloys Ceramic pigments Coloring of ceramics and glass NiO-based black ceramic pigments Electrical cell Nickel-iron battery Active material of negative electrode Ni-Cd rechargeable batteries Ni-MH battery Active material of positive electrode Tandem solar cell Photocathodes material Electronic Electrochromic devices Anodic electrochromic material Others Hydrogenation reaction Catalyst
