Abstract: With polyethylene glycol as dispersant, Nickel hydroxide was prepared by precipitation method (powder S1)and supersonic precipitation method(powder S2) . The samples were characterized (through) using XRD, TEM and Particle size analyer. The result showed that the sample is β-Ni(OH)2 and the micro-shape is needle-like. The complex electrodes were prepared by mixing different wt. % samples with commercial micro-size spherical nickel. Galvanostatic charge/discharge test indicated that discharge capacity of compledx electrode C (mixed 6 wt.% nanosized Ni(OH)2 with spherical nickel) reached 267.5mAh/g, which is 16 % higher than that (230.7 mAh / g) of spherical Ni(OH)2. The charge voltage is lower than that of the spherical Ni(OH)2 electrode. On the contrary, the discharge capacity of electrode F was only 250.3mAh/g. The performance of powers S1 and S2 was compared and the principle of supersonic was discussed.
