The spherical nickel hydroxide was synthesized by chemical precipitation method under the same physical and chemical conditions but different aging times. The morphologies of the spherical nickel hydroxide were characterized by SEM. It was found that with the increase of the aging time, the morphology of the spherical nickel hydroxide changed from irregular crystals to regular spherical crystals. XRD patterns showed that when the aging time was 3 h, the growth of (001)crystal plane reached a steady state, and it did not transform with the increase of the aging time. However, (100)crystal plane and (101)crystal plane continued to grow with the increase of the aging time, and the relative crystallinity reached a maximum value. The shapes of the diffraction peaks were sharp and high when the aging time was 12 h, which indicated that the structural regularity strengthened. The influence of crystal growth direction selectivity on the morphology and electrochemical activity were discussed in the crystallization process of spherical nickel hydroxide.
