## Abstract

A method for producing nickel oxide nanoparticles and nickel oxide nanoparticles produced by using the same.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for producing nickel oxide nanoparticles, the method comprising:
preparing a Ni(OH)2 powder and a KOH powder;
forming a mixed powder by mixing the Ni(OH)2 powder with the KOH powder; and
heat-treating the mixed powder at a temperature of 90° C. to 200° C.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein a molar ratio of the Ni(OH)2 powder to the KOH powder in the mixed powder is 1:1.6 to 1:3.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein a specific surface area of the Ni(OH)2 powder is 0.01 m2/g to 200 m2/g and a specific surface area of the KOH powder is 0.01 m2/g to 200 m2/g.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the heat-treating of the mixed powder is carried out under an atmosphere of normal humidity and normal pressure.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the nickel oxide nanoparticles have an average particle diameter of 5 nm to 50 nm.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the nickel oxide nanoparticles have a specific surface area of 100 m2/g or more.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein a content of hydroxide in the nickel oxide nanoparticles is less than 0.1 wt %.
