“…So far, many synthesis methods have been developed for the preparation of NiO nanoparticles [19,20,22,22] . The chemical methods, including the precipitation of Ni 2+ ions with NaOH, NH4HCO3, CO(NH2)2 or NH3 from an aqueous solution are more promising routes because of inexpensive raw materials and simple processing [23,24,25,26] . However, in most of all these methods, calcinations at the minimum temperature of 250°C are needed to get the crystalline NiO.…”
