Synopsis

Prof. Jerzy Sobkowski starts off this 31st volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry with a far-ranging discussion of experimental results from the past 10 years of interfacial studies. It forms a good background for the two succeeding chapters. The second chapter is by S. U. M. Khan on quantum mechanical treatment of electrode processes. Dr. Khan’s experience in this area is a good basis for this chapter, the contents of which will surprise some, but which as been well refereed. Molecular dynamic simulation is now a much-used technique in physical electrochemistry and in the third chapter Ilan Benjamin has written an account that brings together information from many recent publications, sometimes confirming earlier modeling approaches and sometimes breaking new territory. In Chapter 4, Akiko Aramata’s experience in researching single crystals is put to good advantage in her authoritative article on under- tential deposition. Finally, in Chapter 5, the applied side of electrochemistry is served by Bech-Neilsen et al. in the review of recent techniques for automated measurement of corrosion. J. O’M.

Product Description

Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry: No.31 Presents experimental results from the interfacial studies, quantum mechanical treatment of electrode processes, an in-depth look at underpotential deposition on single crystal metals and the practical matter of automated corrosion measurement. Full description

Synopsis

This is the latest volume of the series praised by JACS for its "high standards," and by Chemistry and Industry for rendering a "valuable service." Experts from academic and industrial laboratories worldwide present: experimental results from the last decade of interfacial studies; a surprising quantum mechanical treatment of electrode processes; recent work in molecular dynamic simulations, which confirms some earlier modelistic approaches and also breaks new ground; an in-depth look at underpotential deposition on single crystal metals; and, the practical matter of automated corrosion measurement.
