Results of an X-ray phase analysis of the products of the low-temperature spray pyrolysis of femtoliter droplets of aqueous nickel-chloride solutions are presented. It is shown that the composition of the nanoparticles accumulated on the electrode-substrate in an aerosol reactor depends on the pressure in it and the initial supersaturation of the solution. It was established that marked chemical transformations of the indicated droplets begin at a pressure lower than 80 Torr. The influence of the evaporation of droplets from a solution and the nucleation in the supersaturated solution formed on the kinetics of the chemical transformations of these droplets, giving rise to the substances obtained in the experiments, is discussed.
