Abstract

The coupled effect of a homemade nickel di-dodecyl sulfate precursor and a complexing base leads to β-Ni-(OH)2 "stack of pancakes" morphology. The mean diameter and thickness of the stacks are around 300 and 200 nm, respectively. Moreover, the amount of ammonia not only monitors crystalline structure but also the size and the shape of particles.
