Von der hinteren Coverseite

This textbook covers the field of physical electrochemistry by introducing the reader to its central topics, including the mechanism of electrode kinetics, el;ectrocapillarity, electrosorption, electrocatalysis, as well as the most important electrochemical methods, such as cyclic voltammetry, the rotating-disc electrode, electrochemical-impedance spectroscopy, microelectrodes and underpotential deposition of metals.

The book is an must-have for anyone wanting to learn more about the methods and their applications in related fields, such as corrosion, materials science, electroplating, nanotechnology and bioelectrochemistry.
