Electrochemistry plays a fundamental role in an incredibly diverse range of research and applied areas, including new compound discovery, biochemical and biological system investigation, corrosion monitoring and prevention, environmental remediation, energy applications, and nanoscale technologies. The fully updated second edition of the
Handbook of Electrochemistry serves as a practical guide to this important field, providing details of experimental considerations, representative calculations, and applications.
After introducing the fundamentals of electrochemistry in Part 1, Part 2 goes on to outline different laboratory aspects of electrochemistry. Key electrochemical techniques ranging from classical experiments to scanning electrochemical microscopy, electrogenerated chemiluminesence and spectroelectrochemistry are discussed in Part 3, and some important applications are outlined in Part 4, with new chapters addressing the current emphasis on electrochemistry for understanding phenomena at the nanoscale, the single entity scale, and the single atom scale. Finally, Part 5 provides a useful selection of electrochemical data, including new tables of kinetic values.
Under the guidance of its expert editor, the Handbook of Electrochemistry, 2nd edition is a comprehensive resource for all those working directly or indirectly with electrochemical information, development and applications across both academia and industry.
