Offering a thorough explanation of electrode kinetics, this textbook emphasizes physical phenomena - rather than mathematical formalism - and elucidates the underlying principles of the different experimental techniques. Assuming an elementary knowledge of thermodynamics and chemical kinetics and minimal mathematical skills, coverage explores the arguments of two primary schools of thought: electrode kinetics and interfacial electrochemistry viewed as a branch of physical chemistry and from the perspective of analytical chemistry.

This book titled "Recent Trend in Electrochemical Science and Technology" contains a selection of chapters focused on advanced methods used in the research area of electrochemical science and technologies; descriptions of electrochemical systems; processing of novel materials and mechanisms relevant for their operation. This book provides an overview on some of the recent development in electrochemical science and technology. Particular emphasis is given both to the theoretical and the experimental aspect of modern electrochemistry. Since it was impossible to cover the rich diversity of electrochemical techniques and applications in a single issue, the focus is on the recent trends and achievements related to electrochemical science and technology.

Electrochemical Kinetics: Theoretical Aspects focuses on the processes, methodologies, reactions, and transformations in electrochemical kinetics. The book first offers information on electrochemical thermodynamics and the theory of overvoltage. Topics include equilibrium potentials, concepts and definitions, electrical double layer and electrocapillarity, and charge-transfer, diffusion, and reaction overvoltage. Crystallization overvoltage, total overvoltage, and resistance polarization are also discussed. The text then examines the methods of determining electrochemical reaction mechanisms, including examination of the overall electrode reaction and determination of the type of overvoltage and reaction kinetics. A list of frequently used symbols is also provided. The book is a valuable reference for readers interested in the study of electrochemical kinetics.

Electrochemistry plays a key role in a broad range of research and applied areas including the exploration of new inorganic and organic compounds, biochemical and biological systems, corrosion, energy applications involving fuel cells and solar cells, and nanoscale investigations. The Handbook of Electrochemistry serves as a source of electrochemical information, providing details of experimental considerations, representative calculations, and illustrations of the possibilities available in electrochemical experimentation. The book is divided into five parts: Fundamentals, Laboratory Practical, Techniques, Applications, and Data. The first section covers the fundamentals of electrochemistry which are essential for everyone working in the field, presenting an overview of electrochemical conventions, terminology, fundamental equations, and electrochemical cells, experiments, literature, textbooks, and specialized books. Part 2 focuses on the different laboratory aspects of electrochemistry which is followed by a review of the various electrochemical techniques ranging from classical experiments to scanning electrochemical microscopy, electrogenerated chemiluminesence and spectroelectrochemistry. Applications of electrochemistry include electrode kinetic determinations, unique aspects of metal deposition, and electrochemistry in small places and at novel interfaces and these are detailed in Part 4. The remaining three chapters provide useful electrochemical data and information involving electrode potentials, diffusion coefficients, and methods used in measuring liquid junction potentials. * serves as a source of electrochemical information * includes useful electrochemical data and information involving electrode potentials, diffusion coefficients, and methods used in measuring liquid junction potentials * reviews electrochemical techniques (incl. scanning electrochemical microscopy, electrogenerated chemiluminesence and spectroelectrochemistry)

Volumes 26 and 27 are both concerned with reactions occurring at electrodes arising through the passage of current. They provide an introduction to the study of electrode kinetics. The basic ideas and experimental methodology are presented in Volume 26, whilst Volume 27 deals with reactions at particular types of electrodes. Chapter 1 of the present volume deals with redox reactions at metal electrodes, Chapter 2 with semiconducting electrodes and Chapter 3 with reactions at metal oxide electrodes. Both theoretical aspects and experimental results are covered.

The mechanism of an elementary act is undoubtedly one of the most fundamental problems of chemical and, in particular, electro chemical kinetics. Although this problem has fascinated scientists for quite a long time, it was only in the late fifties and early sixties that it began to be actively investigated for charge transfer reactions. Owing to the development of new methods in the analysis of this problem, significant advancements were made in theoretical as well as experimental studies. These investigations showed that the physical mechanism of charge transfer in all processes including heterogeneous electrochemical and homogeneous chemical and bio chemical processes is basically the same. Hence, the results ob tained in the field of electrochemical kinetics are relevant to the understanding of homogeneous chemical reactions as well. This book endeavors to summarize the results of investigations carried out during the last two decades. It is based on the author's monograph "Electrode Reactions: The Mechanism of an Elementary Act" (Nauka, 1979). As compared to the first version, the book has been considerably revised and enlarged not only to include a large body of data published between 1978 and 1982, but also to analyze in detail the links between electrochemical and homogeneous, in particular enzymatic, kinetics. As a result, a new chapter has been added to the book. The change in the title reflects the fact that the material contained in the book is not restricted to an investigation of purely electrochemical problems.
