Description

The global Spherical Nickel Hydroxide market size is expected to reach $ 426 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 4.6% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

Spherical Nickel Hydroxide is a nickel hydroxide material with a spherical particle structure. Due to its unique morphology, spherical nickel hydroxide has superior electrochemical performance, thermal stability and mechanical strength. Spherical nickel hydroxide is a common positive electrode material for nickel-metal hydride and zinc-nickel batteries. It is mainly used in various mobile power supplies and power supplies. Various nickel-metal hydride and zinc-nickel batteries made of spherical nickel have the characteristics of small size, strong discharge capacity and environmental friendliness. At the same time, because spherical nickel hydroxide has good fluidity and a large specific surface area, it can improve the charge and discharge efficiency and cycle stability of the battery.

Spherical nickel hydroxide is an important electrode material, which is widely used in nickel-metal hydride batteries due to its good conductivity, high theoretical specific capacity and superior electrochemical performance. Compared with traditional flake or amorphous nickel hydroxide, spherical nickel hydroxide has a larger specific surface area and better particle distribution, which can improve the charge and discharge efficiency and cycle stability of the battery.

Globally, the production of spherical nickel hydroxide is mainly concentrated in China and Japan. Among them, China is the largest producer. Nickel-metal hydride battery is the core application of spherical nickel hydroxide. At present, the production of nickel-hydrogen batteries is mainly concentrated in China and Japan, among which China mainly produces small nickel-hydrogen batteries, while Japan mainly produces large nickel-hydrogen batteries. Therefore, China and Japan are also the main consumers of spherical nickel hydroxide.

Nickel-hydrogen batteries are similar to nickel-cadmium batteries in terms of electrochemical properties, but have the characteristics of high energy density, large capacity, no memory effect, clean and environmentally friendly; compared with lithium batteries, nickel-hydrogen batteries have the characteristics of high safety and wide applicable temperature range. Since its development, nickel-hydrogen batteries have been widely used in civilian retail, personal care, energy storage, hybrid vehicles and other fields; with the rise of the Internet of Vehicles, nickel-hydrogen batteries have broad development prospects as the mainstream solution for vehicle-mounted T-Box power supplies. The healthy development of the nickel-hydrogen battery industry will provide strong support for the spherical nickel hydroxide industry.
