Description
Nickel Nitrate Hexahydrate (CAS No. 13478-00-7) is a high-purity inorganic compound with the molecular formula H12N2NiO12. This emerald-green crystalline solid is highly soluble in water and ethanol, making it a versatile reagent for laboratory and industrial applications. It is widely used in electroplating, catalysis, and as a precursor for nickel-based nanomaterials. Our product is available in ACS, Trace Metals, and ultra-high purity (99.9985% Ni) grades to meet stringent research and manufacturing requirements. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistency, low heavy metal content, and compliance with global standards (ISO, REACH). Proper handling is essential due to its classification as a carcinogen and environmental hazard.
