Frank, The Ni metal is not dissolved is it?
I also understand the smaller the Ni particle, the lower the melting temperature due to melting point depression. * * *Melting-point depression* is a term referring to the phenomenon of reduction of the melting point <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_point> of a material with reduction of its size. This phenomenon is very prominent in nanoscale materials <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanotechnology>which melt at temperatures hundreds of degrees lower than bulk materials.
