Nickel (II) sulfate, or simply nickel sulfate, is an inorganic compound with the formula NiSO4 * 6H2O. This highly soluble salt, blue-green in color, known as a common source of Ni2 + ions used in electroplating. Usually obtained as a by-product of copper refining, and also produced by dissolving metallic nickel or nickel oxides in sulfuric acid.
The complex nickel sulphate hexahydrate is used in the electrowinning of nickel as well as in most nickel plating baths. Nickel chloride hexahydrate NiCl2 * 6H2O is often used in combination with sulfate in electroplating baths.
Application:
- As an electrolyte for nickel plating and electrolytic refining,
- In the preparation of galvanic baths,
- In the chemical industry for the production of catalysts for hydrogenation of fats,
- Coloring mortar,
- Blackening of zinc and brass.
