Abstract Nanoporous nickel hydroxide film has been successfully electrodeposited on titanium substrate from nickel nitrate dissolved in the aqueous domains of the hexagonal lyotropic liquid crystalline phase of Brij 56. Low-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies show that the film has a regular nanostructure consisting of a hexagonal array of cylindrical pores with a repeat center-to-center spacing of about 7 nm. Preliminary electrochemical studies are carried out using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronopotentiometry technology. A maximum specific capacitance of 578 F g −1 could be achieved for the nanoporous Ni(OH) 2 film electrode, suggesting its potential application in electrochemical capacitors.
