The Fundamentals of Electrochemistry


Free Download Yuliy D. Gamburg, "The Fundamentals of Electrochemistry"
English | ISBN: 1527501647 | 2023 | 366 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This novel, precise and concise text-book presents the foundations of electrochemistry, which is more a physical science than a chemical one. Familiarity with this topic is necessary to understand such areas as chemical power sources (Li-ion and other batteries), production of hydrogen, oxygen and other substances, application of metal coatings, manufacture of foils and nanomaterials, corrosion protection. All this is connected with the passage of electric current through solutions and with the electromotive forces. This book is a systematic presentation of all aspects of electrochemistry from theoretical foundations to practical use. It outlines the most important concepts and provides a derivation of the basic formulas. Electrochemical methods of research are described in detail. The book largely focuses on the electrochemistry of metals, which is especially convenient to explain the most important concepts. The addressees of this textbook are students of physical, technical and chemical specialities, researchers using electrochemical methods, employees in electrochemical industries, teachers wanting to improve their knowledge in these topics. It can be used by the readers without formal training; the mathematics and physics here demand the level corresponding to the first course of a technical university.

Comprehensive Treatise of Electrochemistry Volume 7 Kinetics and Mechanisms of Electrode Processes


Free Download Comprehensive Treatise of Electrochemistry: Volume 7 Kinetics and Mechanisms of Electrode Processes by Brian E. Conway, John O’M. Bockris, Ernest Yeager, Shahed U. M. Khan, Ralph E. White

Electrochemistry is one of the oldest defined areas in physical science, and there was a time, less than 50 years ago, when one saw "Institute of Elec- trochemistry and Physical Chemistry" in the chemistry buildings of European universities. But after early brilliant developments in electrode processes at the beginning of the twentieth century and in solution chemistry during the 1930s, electrochemistry fell into a period of decline which lasted for several decades. Electrochemical systems were too complex for the theoretical con- cepts of the quantum theory. They were too little understood at a phenomeno- logical level to allow the Ubiquity in application in so many fields to be comprehended.

Electrochemistry of Metalloporphyrins


Free Download Series on Chemistry, Energy and the Environment : Electrochemistry of Metalloporphyrins (644 Pages)
by Karl M. Kadish, W. Ryan Osterloh, Eric Van Caemelbecke and Roger Guilard

English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811267618 | 645 pages | True PDF | 42.42 MB
This book is part of a series of ongoing volumes in the Series on Chemistry, Energy and the Environment, edited by Karl Kadish and Roger Guilard. The current volume on Electrochemistry of Metalloporphyrins covers all aspects of porphyrin electrochemistry in nonaqueous media and should be of benefit and interest to beginning graduate students as well as experienced researchers in many fields of porphyrin chemistry where electrochemistry is known to play a key role in influencing properties of the compounds as well as mechanisms and biological functions. The first half of the book is aimed at non-experts in the field of electrochemistry who would like to begin studies on porphyrin electrochemistry or understand the literature on porphyrin electrochemistry and this is then followed by detailed examples of how changes in the central metal ion of a given metalloporphyrin will affect its redox properties. The scope of the work covers the period in the literature between the mid-1960s and mid-2022 and expands greatly upon several earlier reviews by the senior author which are no longer in print and were never accessible in electronic form. This is the only book of its kind in the field which covers the basic electrochemistry of metalloporphyrins as well as describes the published data as a function of the central metal ion, considering all elements in the periodic table.
