Fundamentals of Electrochemistry by Vladimir S. Bagotsky provides an extensive foundation in theoretical and applied electrochemistry. This textbook is suitable both for students who are new to the field and for professionals who focus on advanced electrochemical issues. The content is clearly structured, with a clear emphasis on essential concepts and modern applications.
Description
This reference work covers fundamental themes in theoretical and applied electrochemistry, with the first part written for, among others, undergraduate students. More complex topics for advanced programs follow thereafter. The second, updated edition gives special attention to experimental techniques and includes an extensive chapter on physical methods for electrode surface research. New chapters address current trends such as nano- and micro-electrochemistry, solid-state electrochemistry, and electrocatalysis. In addition, it discusses fuel cells, batteries, and electric double-layer capacitors, aligning with global interest in energy technologies.
