Electrochemistry: Principles, Methods, And Applications (oxford Science Publications)
1993 / English / PDF
7.1 MB Download
This much-needed, comprehensive text offers an introduction to
electrochemistry. The book begins at an elementary level and
progresses through to the most recent advances in this
interdisciplinary subject. The first part introduces the
fundamental principles of thermodynamics, kinetics, and mass
transport associated with electrode reactions. The second part
considers experimental methods that are available to study
electrode and electrochemical processes, such as steady-state with
forced convection, linear sweep, step/pulse voltametric techniques
and impedance, modern surface analysis, and microscopic and
spectroscopic procedures that complement the electrochemical
information. The final part of the book discusses wide-ranging
applications, including sensors, industrial electrolysis and
batteries, corrosion studies, and the rapidly expanding field of
bioelectrochemistry. Easily accessible appendices provide the
necessary mathematics, principles of electrical circuits, and
basics of digital simulation. The breadth of coverage insures that
this volume will be valuable not only to students in chemistry,
biochemistry, industrial chemistry, chemical engineering, and
materials science, but to researchers needing proper introduction
to electrochemistry.
