General description

Nickel(II) sulfate is an inorganic compound that exhibits high solubility in water. It is commonly used in electroplating, as a chemical intermediate in the preparation of other nickel salts, and as a source of nickel ions for various processes. Additionally, it has applications in the battery industry and as a catalyst in organic synthesis.
Properties of NiSO4:      
  • Highly soluble in water     
  • It can participate in redox reactions  
  • It can form complexes with various ligands

Application

Nickel(II) sulfate can be used as a precursor to synthesize:    
  • Nickel-based electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution.      
  • Ni-doped titanium dioxide nanoparticles for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants such as methyl orange.     
  • Spherical silica particles coated with Ni, which find application in the field of ceramic industry and in catalysis.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
