Electrochemistry and magnetochemistry

This book introduces the principles of electrochemistry with a special emphasis on materials science.

Based on the successful first edition, this book gives a general theoretical introduction to electrochemical power cells (excluding fuel cells) followed by a comprehensive treatment of the principle battery types - covering chemistry, fabrication characteristics and applications.

This book summarizes the salient features of both equilibrium and steady-state thermodynamic theory under a uniform postulatory viewpoint.

Electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, molecular spectroscopy, optics and radiation form the foundations of the field.

This book is an excellent companion to Chemical Thermodynamics: Principles and Applications.

In-Situ Spectroscopic Studies of Adsorption at the Electrode and Electrocatalysis is a new reference on in-situ spectroscopic techniques/applications, fundamentals of electrocatalysis at molecule level, and progresses within electrochemical surface science.

Industrial Applications of Batteries looks at both the applications and the batteries and covers the relevant scientific and technological features.

Physico-Chemical Analysis of Molten Electrolytes includes selected topics on the measurement and evaluation of physico-chemical properties of molten electrolytes.

Batteries for Portable Devices provides a comprehensive overview of all batteries used in portable electric and electronic, as well as medical devices.
