Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry, Number 38 [Hardcover]

B. E. Conway (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 1, 2004 | ISBN-10: 0306487039 | ISBN-13: 978-0306487033 | Edition: 1

Topics in Number 38 include: - Solid State Electrochemistry encompassing modern equilibria concepts, thermodymanics and kinetics of charge carriers in solids - Electron transfer processes, with special sections devoted to hydration of the proton and its heterogeneous transfer - Electrosorption at electrodes and its relevance to electrocatalysis and electrodeposition of metals -The behavior of Pt and other alloy electrocatalyst crystallites used as the electrode materials for phosphoric acid electrolyte fuel-cells - Applications of reflexology and electron microscopy to the materials science aspect of metal electrodes - Electroplating of metal matrix composites by codeposition of suspended particles, a process that has improved physical and electrochemical properties.

Editorial Reviews

Review

From reviews of previous volumes: "This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science … Deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers" Chemistry and Industry "Continues the valuable service that has been rendered by the Modern Aspects series." Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry "Will definitely be of much use to researchers in the field of electrochemistry … The editors of this well-produced volume deserve all appreciation for maintaining the excellent standard of the series." Bulletin of Electrochemistry "Extremely well-referenced and very readable … Maintains the overall high standards of the series." Journal of the American Chemical Society From the reviews: "This is a solid volume with several excellent chapters and is recommended for libraries and other general electrochemistry collections." (Johna Leddy, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 127(35), 2005)
