Nickel(II) chloride (or simply nickel chloride) is the chemical compound NiCl2, which is green in colour. Nickel(II) chloride in its various forms is the most important source of nickel in chemical synthesis. This highly soluble blue-green salt is a common source of Ni2+ ions for electroplating.

Electroplating: Nickel chloride is commonly used in electroplating processes to coat the surface of a variety of objects with nickel, including metal products and electronic components. Electroplated nickel is corrosion-resistant, durable and attractive in appearance. Nickel chloride is accepted as an electrodeless nickel plating agent, an external cathodic corrosion protection for zinc alloys.

Catalysis: It is used as a catalyst in chemical reactions, especially in processes such as the production of organic compounds, such as the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and petrochemicals.

Chemical reactions: Nickel chloride is used as a reagent in a wide range of chemical reactions and laboratory experiments. It can be used as a source of nickel ions in solution for reactions using nickel catalysts or as a precursor for other nickel compounds.

Battery production: Nickel chloride is used as an electrolyte in rechargeable nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. NiMH batteries are commonly used in consumer electronics and electric vehicles.

Ceramic and glass dyeing: In the manufacture of ceramics and glass, nickel chloride can be used as a colouring agent to create a variety of colours including green and black.

Wood preservation: In wood treatment, nickel chloride can be used to protect wood from rotting and insect infestation, thereby extending the life of wood products.

Photography: Historically, nickel chloride has been used to create black and white photographic prints. It was used to sensitise photographic emulsions.

Dyeing and textiles: Nickel chloride can be used as a binder in textile dyeing processes to help fix dyes onto fabrics.

In experiments, NiCl2-6H2O can be used to form a variety of nickel coordination complexes, as the aqueous ligands are rapidly displaced by ammonia, amines, thioethers, thiolates and organophosphorus compounds. In some derivatives, chloride remains in the coordination sphere and chloride is displaced by highly alkaline ligands. Nickel complex compounds of various colours are obtained.
