Jackowska K. Applied Electrochemistry 2020

Textbook in PDF format

This book introduces the main aspects of modern applied electrochemistry. Starting with the basics of electrochemical kinetics, the authors address the chemistry and types of corrosion, principles of electro- and biocatalysis, electrodeposition and its applications in industrial processes. The book later discusses the electrochemistry and photoelectrochemistry of semiconductors and their applications in solar energy conversion and photocatalysis.
Creates a snapshot of the most important problems in applied electrochemistry and guides how to solve them.
Gives an overview of the processes running during corrosion, electrodeposition and electrocatalysis.
