Ni-NiO is an important composite; its synthesis and properties have been of increased interest with regards to prominent applications in many fields. This article provides for the first time a comprehensive review of the cutting-edge research activities that focus on rational synthesis, characterization techniques, novel properties and applications of the Ni-NiO composite. While the formation mechanism of this composite is still vague, much attention has been given to the reported formation mechanisms using different precursors in one-pot synthesis, and thus, a formation mechanism and green synthesis route have been proposed. All the applications of the Ni-NiO composite in different fields including magnetic materials, ion-lithium battery, supercapacitors and catalytic activities are also emphasized. It was proved from the available literature that metallic Ni was obtained into the skelton of NiO by the reduction process during the calcination through the production of adventitious H2 via the gasification-like process. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd date: 2019 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85070839757&doi=10.1016%2fj.rser.2019.109326&partnerID=40&md5=af3710ea621b5f06ed50032969df6547 id_number: 10.1016/j.rser.2019.109326 full_text_status: none publication: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews volume: 114 refereed: TRUE issn: 13640321 citation: Alnarabiji, M.S. and Tantawi, O. and Ramli, A. and Mohd Zabidi, N.A. and Ghanem, O.B. and Abdullah, B.
