Hydrothermal preparation of nickel hydroxide coated iron oxide particles
A novel hydrothermal coating process has been developed to deposit nickel compound over octahedral α-Fe 2O 3 particles of narrow size distribution (0.2–0.3 μm) by treating aqueous dispersions of the preformed cores at elevated temperatures in Ni(NO 3) 2/CH 3COONa solutions. A study of the process pa...
