METHOD FOR PRODUCING SEED CRYSTALS USED FOR PRODUCING HYDROGEN-REDUCED NICKEL POWDER

摘要

Provided are a method for producing nickel seed crystals that maintains and improves the quality of nickel powder at a low cost while suppressing production cost and environmental load in the production of nickel powder, by optimizing the amount of hydrazine added when producing fine nickel powder as seed crystals using hydrazine; and a method for producing nickel powder using the nickel seed crystals. The method for producing seed crystals used for producing hydrogen-reduced nickel powder, including adding, to an acid solution containing nickel ions that is maintained at a temperature of 50 to 60° C., hydrazine of 1 to 1.25 mol per 1 mol of a nickel component contained in the acid solution to produce the seed crystals.
