“…α-Ni(OH) 2 materials have been prepared with cationic substitutions of the lattice Ni with Al [16,[67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75], Mn [76,77], Fe [78,79], Co [14,69,74,75,[80][81][82], Cu [67,83], Zn [65,66,70,84,85], Y [86] and Yb [87]. In some of these examples, the bivalent Ni 2+ cation is replaced with a trivalent species (e.g.…”

This review article summarizes the last few decades of research on nickel hydroxide, an important material in physics and chemistry, that has many applications in engineering including, significantly, batteries. First, the structures of the two known polymorphs, denoted as α-Ni(OH) 2 and β-Ni(OH) 2 , are described. The various types of disorder, which are frequently present in nickel hydroxide materials, are discussed including hydration, stacking fault disorder, mechanical stresses and the incorporation of ionic impurities. Several related materials are discussed, including intercalated α-derivatives and basic nickel salts. Next, a number of methods to prepare, or synthesize, nickel hydroxides are summarized, including chemical precipitation, electrochemical precipitation, sol-gel synthesis, chemical ageing, hydrothermal and solvothermal synthesis, electrochemical oxidation, microwaveassisted synthesis, and sonochemical methods. Finally, the known physical properties of the nickel hydroxides are reviewed, including their magnetic, vibrational, optical, electrical and mechanical properties. The last section in this paper is intended to serve as a summary of both the potentially useful properties of these materials and the methods for the identification and characterization of 'unknown' nickel hydroxide-based samples.

“…Although the ionic radiuses of the two elements are different, it does not change the result. Second, Al is inefficient in the electrochemical redox reaction, so that the increase in the Al amount also can result in a discharge capacity fade [245]. Besides, it is quite difficult to achieve Al contained metal particles coprecipitation with high density and large size [246].…”

“…Besides, it is quite difficult to achieve Al contained metal particles coprecipitation with high density and large size [246]. For instance, Chen [245] has come up with a complexation-coprecipitation approach for the synthesis of spherical Ni-Al LDH samples. Even the highest tap-density is merely 1.1 g cm −3 , which is inferior to spherical β-Ni(OH)2 [243].…”

There has been increasing interest in developing micro/nanostructured aluminum-based materials for sustainable, dependable and high-efficiency electrochemical energy storage. This review chiefly discusses the aluminum-based electrode materials mainly including Al2O3, AlF3, AlPO4, Al(OH)3, as well as the composites (carbons, silicons, metals and transition metal oxides) for lithium-ion batteries, the development of aluminum-ion batteries, and nickel-metal hydride alkaline secondary batteries, which summarizes the methodologies, related charge-storage mechanisms, the relationship between nanostructures and electrochemical properties found in recent years, latest research achievements and their potential applications. In addition, we raise the relevant challenges in recently developed electrode materials and put forward new ideas for further development of micro/nanostructured aluminum-based materials in advanced battery systems.

“…Natural oxyhydroxides (goethite, akaganeite, lepidocrocite, diaspore, boehmite and other minerals) [1][2][3][4] and synthetic oxyhydroxides of 3d-transition metals (NiOOH, FeOOH, MnOOH, etc.) attract most of the attention because of their potential as materials for electrochemical energy storage, [5][6][7][8][9][10][11] sensors, 12 absorbents 13,14 and electrochromic devices. [15][16][17] However, in spite of active research in this field, there are only a few reports concerning the synthesis and the characterisation of solid oxyhydroxides of the 4 th group of the periodic table.…”

COVER ARTICLETwo new solid MO(OH) 2 (M = Zr, Hf ) oxyhydroxides have been synthesised by an ion-exchange reaction from Li 2 MO 3 (M = Zr, Hf ) precursors obtained by a citrate combustion technique. The crystal structure of the oxyhydroxides has been solved by direct methods and refined using Rietveld full profile fitting based on X-ray powder diffraction data. Both oxyhydroxides crystallize in a P2 1 /c monoclinic unit cell and have a structure resembling that of the related salts. Detailed characterisation of the fine-structure features and chemical bonding in precursors and oxyhydroxide powders has been performed using vibrational spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, pair distribution function analysis and quantum-chemical modelling.
