Synopses & Reviews
This edition is fully revised to reflect the current state off the field.
* Significant additions include ultramicroelectrodes, modified electrodes, and scanning probe methods.
* Many chapters have been modified and improved, including electrode kinetics, voltammetric methods, and mechanisms of coupled chemical reactions.
Review
"...an excellent textbook...and a highly recommended addition to one's personal library."(Anti-Corrosion Methods and Materials, Vol.50, No.5, 2003)
Synopsis
Das f hrende Werk auf seinem Gebiet - jetzt durchg ngig auf den neuesten Stand gebracht Die theoretischen Grundlagen der Elektrochemie, erweitert um die aktuellsten Erkenntnisse in der Theorie des Elektronentransfers, werden hier ebenso besprochen wie alle wichtigen Anwendungen, darunter modernste Verfahren (Ultramikroelektroden, modifizierte Elektroden, LCEC, Impedanzspektrometrie, neue Varianten der Pulsvoltammetrie und andere). In erster Linie als Lehrbuch gedacht, l t sich das Werk aber auch hervorragend zum Selbststudium und zur Auffrischung des Wissensstandes verwenden. Lediglich elementare Grundkenntnisse der physikalischen Chemie werden vorausgesetzt.
