Today, the application of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles is increasing in the field of technology that is in great demand, thereby increasing the demand for industrial production. The use of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles can be applied in various technologies, including aqueous batteries. Therefore, an effective method for industrial production is needed. This paper aims to discuss and compare a more efficient method in the synthesis of NiFe2O4. The research method used is a literature review of 62 papers. There are several NiFe2O4 synthesis methods, namely Coprecipitation, Citrate Precursor Technique, Mechanical Alloying, Hydrothermal, Sonochemistry, Reverse Micelle, Sol-Gel, and Pulsed Wire Discharge. The results show that the effective synthesis method of NiFe2O4 is Hydrothermal. This is because the hydrothermal method is economically feasible, environmentally friendly, and has no requirement of high temperatures in the calcination process to produce the final product. The nanoparticle size is around 29.39 nm. This paper is expected to assist in selecting the synthesis method of NiFe2O4.

Spinel metal oxides are extensively studied for supercapacitors (SCs) in alkaline electrolytes, where charge storage capacity is limited by surface site availability due to surface reconstruction forming metal hydroxides/oxyhydroxides. The use of an acidic medium, which can boost the charge storage capacity of spinel oxides offering an additional channel of intercalation‐deintercalation of protons, is underexplored. Moreover, the impact of chemical compositions and the cationic distributions is crucial on the electrocatalysis performance of spinel oxides, however, such a correlation is first time reported for charge storage properties of spinel ferrite NiFe2O4 nanoparticles (NFO NPs). Besides, a low‐cost and scalable synthesis of NFO NPs involving the thermal decomposition of Ni‐Fe glycolate, followed by controlled air‐calcination is reported. Thus crafted NFO NPs‐based device shows impressive specific capacitance (2112 F g−1 at 10 A g−1) in half‐cell configuration. A flexible all‐solid‐state asymmetric device (full‐cell) configuration depicts impressive energy density (20.7 Wh kg−1), power density (4000 W kg−1), gravimetric capacitance (140 F g−1 at 2 A g−1), and retention of its performance (≈75% after 10,000 charging/discharging cycles). The results depict a new insight toward the tuning of electronic and charge storage properties in NFO, which otherwise are predominately attributed to only the crystallite size and morphological effects.

Developing efficient and low‐cost electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is crucial for sustainable hydrogen production through water splitting. In this study, CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles as electrocatalysts were prepared via an inexpensive method involving the use of bicontinuous microemulsions as nanoreactors. The crystalline structure, morphology, and elemental composition of the electrocatalysts were characterized by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, TEM, and EDS. The electronic structure and textural properties were examined by using XPS and the nitrogen adsorption‐desorption method. The OER measurements were carried out in a standard three‐electrode system. CoFe2O4 demonstrated relatively higher OER catalytic activity than NiFe2O4 in 1M KOH solution, with a smaller overpotential of 410 mV to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm‐2 and a smaller Tafe slope of 80 mV dec‐1. In contrast, NiFe2O4 offered a higher overpotential of 450 mV to reach the same current density. The superior performance of CoFe2O4 is ascribed to higher ECSA, better conductivity, and lower charge transfer resistance. However, both electrocatalysts showed stability up to more than three hours of continuous performance.
