English | 2013 | ISBN: 9814407992 | 147 Pages | PDF (True) | 5 MB
This book is a brief introductory text of the fundamental electrochemistry that is essential for important biomedical areas including electrophysiology, biosensors and even gene technology. The book targets readers who generally lack a substantial background knowledge in physical chemistry or the basic concepts in electricity for understanding most of the electrochemical textbooks, monographs or research articles. The contents are expressed in a concise and concept-by-concept manner with basic material such as math or optional applications appended in the appendices. Hopefully, it will be a quick and efficient solution for those who are eager to understand, handle and even develop an electrochemical method or tool by themselves.Co-publish with National Taiwan University.

Construction and Functionalization of Heterocycles by Electrochemistry


Free Download Construction and Functionalization of Heterocycles by Electrochemistry
English | 2024 | ISBN: 303174263X | 291 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 41 MB
This book highlights a selection of recent electrochemical approaches to synthesize heterocyclic compounds. Electrochemistry has recently re-emerged as a prevalent technique to promote synthetic organic reactions. This renewed interest arises from its sustainability as well as its ability to engage compounds in unique ways that complement conventional chemical reagents. In the context of heterocyclic synthesis, electrochemistry enables the annulation of simple precursors and the direct functionalization and elaboration of heterocycles, which are the focus of this volume. The primary target audience includes synthetic chemists at all levels of industry and academia.

Encyclopedia of Applied Electrochemistry


Free Download Encyclopedia of Applied Electrochemistry by Gerhard Kreysa, Ken-ichiro Ota, Robert F. Savinell
English | PDF (True) | 2014 | 2198 Pages | ISBN : 1441969950 | 75.2 MB
While electrochemistry deals with the interrelation of electrical and chemical phenomena, applied electrochemistry is the interface between fundamental science and practical applications. It is vitally important for our industrial society of today and even more so for its future. A successful response to global challenges such as securing energy supply, developing energy-efficient and sustainable processes and materials, environmentally friendly technologies, or monitoring physiological processes for health care requires electrochemical research and engineering. The Encyclopedia of Applied Electrochemistry provides an authoritative compilation of entries dealing with all applied aspects of electrochemistry, including basic theoretical concepts, and instrumentation. As a unique, one-stop resource for sound and digested knowledge in this field, the Encyclopedia of Applied Electrochemistry comprises the first applications-oriented interdisciplinary work on the critical technologies underlying key advances such as energy efficiency (e.g. batteries for electric cars, etc.), green and sustainable chemical industries, new materials (corrosion resistant and low-friction), and biomedical sensors.

Modern Electrochemistry 2A Fundamentals of Electrodics


Free Download John O’M. Bockris, Amulya K.N. Reddy, Maria E. Gamboa-Aldeco, "Modern Electrochemistry 2A: Fundamentals of Electrodics"
English | 2001 | pages: 811 | ISBN: 0306461668, 0306461676 | PDF | 64,5 mb
This book had its nucleus in some lectures given by one of us (J. O’M. B. ) in a course on electrochemistry to students of energy conversion at the University of Pennsyl- nia. It was there that he met a number of people trained in chemistry, physics, biology, metallurgy, and materials science, all of whom wanted to know something about electrochemistry. The concept of writing a book about electrochemistry which could be understood by people with very varied backgrounds was thereby engendered. The lectures were recorded and written up by Dr. Klaus Muller as a 293-page manuscript. At a later stage, A. K. N. R. joined the effort; it was decided to make a fresh start and to write a much more comprehensive text. Of methods for direct energy conversion, the electrochemical one is the most advanced and seems the most likely to become of considerable practical importance. Thus, conversion to electrochemically powered transportation systems appears to be an important step by means of which the difficulties of air pollution and the effects of an increasing concentration in the atmosphere of carbon dioxide may be met. Cor- sion is recognized as having an electrochemical basis. The synthesis of nylon now contains an important electrochemical stage. Some central biological mechanisms have been shown to take place by means of electrochemical reactions. A number of American organizations have recently recommended greatly increased activity in training and research in electrochemistry at universities in the United States.

Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry (2024)


Free Download John O’M. Bockris, Ralph E. White, Brian E. Conway, "Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry"
English | 2002 | pages: 356 | ISBN: 0306456508 | PDF | 19,4 mb
Prof. Jerzy Sobkowski starts off this 31st volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry with a far-ranging discussion of experimental results from the past 10 years of interfacial studies. It forms a good background for the two succeeding chapters. The second chapter is by S. U. M. Khan on quantum mechanical treatment of electrode processes. Dr. Khan’s experience in this area is a good basis for this chapter, the contents of which will surprise some, but which as been well refereed. Molecular dynamic simulation is now a much-used technique in physical electrochemistry and in the third chapter Ilan Benjamin has written an account that brings together information from many recent publications, sometimes confirming earlier modeling approaches and sometimes breaking new territory. In Chapter 4, Akiko Aramata’s experience in researching single crystals is put to good advantage in her authoritative article on under- tential deposition. Finally, in Chapter 5, the applied side of electrochemistry is served by Bech-Neilsen et al. in the review of recent techniques for automated measurement of corrosion. J. O’M.
