Fine nickel metal powder of uniform morphology, narrow size distribution, and high purity was prepared from high purity metal solution. Slurry reduction method for the synthesis of metal powder was applied with a special interest in their fine and spherical shape. The products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Well dispersed ultrafine nickel powder with the particle size range of 100~200 nm was produced from Ni-hydrazine precursor using hydrazine as a reductant for 90 min reaction in 4.5 M NaOH solution.

$\alpha,\omega-Vinyl$ poly (dimethyl-methylphenyl) siloxane prepolymer (VPMPS ) was prepared by the equilibrium polymerization of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane $(D_4)$, 1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-triphenylcyclotrisiloxane $(D_3^{Me,Ph)$, and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-1,3-divinyldisiloxane (MVS). And also, of $\alpha,\omega-hydrogen$ poly(dimethyl-methyl)siloxane prepolymer (HPDMS) as end blocker was prepared from octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane $(D_4)$, 1,3,5-trimethylcyclotrisiloxane $(D_3^:Me,H})$, and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (MS). Nickel ferrite nanoparticles having spinel magnetic material was prepared by the sol-gel method using PAA as a chelating agent. Poly(organosiloxane) rubber nanocomposite containing silica and nickel ferrite ultrafine powder modified with 1,3-divinyltetramethyldisilazane (VMS) was prepared by compounding VPMPS, HPDMS, and catalyst in high speed dissolver. The mechanical properties, heat dissipating away characteristics, and volume resistivities for POX-30 and POX-50 were measured.

A nickel mesh and an expanded nickel sheet were used as a current collector for supporting active materials of cathode in rechargeable batteries, while a porous nickel substrate was extensively studied because of its 3-dimensional structure which has high capabilities for active materials and current collection. Optimum coating conditions were studied by SEM and two step d. c. constant current electrolysis for the graphite coating and electro-plated nickel on an urethane substance which was highly porous and 3-dimensional structure. The density and the porosity of nickel support obtained by using two step current density and 80 ppi urethane substance were 0.38∼0.40 g /㎤ and 94∼96%, respectively. It was possible to fabricate a highly porous and good packable nickel substrate using two step current density and surfactants at sulfamic acid nickel plating bath.

Nanosized NiO powder was prepared by mixing an acid nickel salt and a base nickel salt and their reduction behavior was studied. Ni formate was employed as an acid salt and nickel hydroxide and basic nickel carbonate as base salts. One equivalent acid salt was mixed with 9 equivalent base salt. The mixture of the formate and the carbonate produced ~100 run spherical NiO powder by heat treatment at $750^{\circ}C$/2 h, but the mixture of the formate and the hydroxide gave rise to ~100 nm pseudo spherical NiO powder by heat treatment at $600^{\circ}C$/2 h and grew fast to give pseudo cubic crystals of 100~600 run by heat treatment at $750^{\circ}C$/2 h. Reduction by hydrogen gas proceeded much faster for the one with the hydroxide than that with the carbonate to give porous body with well grown necks. Their behavior was studied by analysis of TG/DSC, XRD, and SEM.

Short-length and long-length Ni tapes were fabricated by powder processing, cold rolling and recrystallizatioon heat treatment. In the case of the short-length Ni tape, both in-plane and out-of-plane texture were less than $10^{\circ}$. In the case of the long-length Ni tape, the degree of texture is lower than that of the short-length Ni tape. The relationship between the texture formation and the processing parameter is reported.

Nickel fine powders were prepared from nickel chloride aqueous solution containing ethanol as an organic solvent, and their oxidation behaviors were investigated. The reduction reaction by hydrazine from nickel chloride aqueous solution containing ethanol depend on reaction temperature. The reduction reaction time by hydrazine decreased with the increase of reaction temperature. By controlling reaction temperature, the products could be obtained spherical particles in the range of 0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$~1.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Also, As reaction temperature increased from $40^{\circ}C$ to $80^{\circ}C$, the particle size slightly increased and had a broad size distribution owing to the presence of the coarse particles. The mean particle size and specific surface area of nickel powders prepared at $60^{\circ}C$ were 0.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 31.8 $\m^2$/g, respectively. Weight loss of the powders at $300^{\circ}C$ was due to composition of $_Ni(OH)2$. In case of heat treatment at $200^{\circ}C$ in air, oxidation resistance of nickel powders was remarkable than that of as-synthesized.

We fabricated Ni-based alloy substrates for YBCO coated conductor using powder metallurgy. Tungsten and copper were selected as alloy elements due to their mutual solubility to the base element of nickel. The alloying elements were mixed with nickel using ball milling and dried in air. The powder mixtures were packed in a rubber mold, cold isostatic pressed 200 MPa and made into rods. The compacted rods were sintered at $1150^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours for densification. It was confirmed by neutron diffraction experiment that W and Cu atoms made complete solid solution with Ni. Lattice constant of nickel alloy increased by $0.004{\AA}$ for 1at. $\%$ W in Ni-W alloy, $0.0006{\AA}$ for 1 at. $\%$ Cu in Ni-W-Cu alloy.

Lithium silicate, a lithium-ion conducting ceramic, is coated on a layer-structured lithium nickel manganese oxide ($LiNi_{0.7}Mn_{0.3}O_2$). Residual lithium compounds ($Li_2CO_3$ and LiOH) on the surface of the cathode material and $SiO_2$ derived from tetraethylorthosilicate are used as lithium and silicon sources, respectively. Powder X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy analyses show that lithium silicate is coated uniformly on the cathode particles. Charge and discharge tests of the samples show that the coating can enhance the rate capability and cycle life performance. The improvements are attributed to the reduced interfacial resistance originating from suppression of solid-electrolyte interface (SEI) formation and dissolution of Ni and Mn due to the coating. An X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study of the cycled electrodes shows that nickel oxide and manganese oxide particles are formed on the surface of the electrode and that greater decomposition of the electrolyte occurs for the bare sample, which confirms the assumption that SEI formation and Ni and Mn dissolution can be reduced using the coating process.
