Electrochemistry is a fundamental discipline that plays a crucial role in a wide array of research and applied fields,spanning from the discovery of new compounds to the investigation of biochemical and biological systems,corrosion monitoring and prevention,environmental remediation,energy applications,and nanoscale technologies. The second edition of the Handbook of Electrochemistry,a comprehensive resource in this field,has been thoroughly revised to provide a practical guide for practitioners.

In Part 1,the book introduces the fundamental principles of electrochemistry,covering topics such as electrochemical cells,redox reactions,electron transfer,and electrocatalysis. Part 2 delves into various laboratory aspects of electrochemistry,including experimental setup,data analysis,and safety considerations. Key electrochemical techniques,such as classical experiments,scanning electrochemical microscopy,electrogenerated chemiluminescence,and spectroelectrochemistry,are discussed in Part 3. Representative calculations and applications related to these techniques are also provided.

Part 4 highlights some important applications of electrochemistry in various fields,such as materials science,biomedicine,and environmental science. New chapters have been added to address the current emphasis on electrochemistry for understanding phenomena at the nanoscale,the single entity scale,and the single atom scale. Finally,Part 5 offers a valuable selection of electrochemical data,including new tables of kinetic values.

The Handbook of Electrochemistry,2nd edition,is edited by an expert in the field,making it a comprehensive resource for researchers,students,and professionals working in electrochemistry or related fields. With its extensive coverage,up-to-date information,and practical insights,this book is essential for anyone seeking to advance their knowledge and expertise in this dynamic and interdisciplinary area.
