Electrochemistry Encyclopedia

(http://knowledge.electrochem.org/encycl/)

This site contains popular-science style articles describing many aspects of electrochemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, electrochemical engineering, and electrochemical technology, written by international experts in the field. It is crosslinked with the ELECTROCHEMISTRY DICTIONARY for definitions. New articles are added at irregular intervals, and all articles are periodically updated as recent developments occur in the field. (http://knowledge.electrochem.org/encycl/)

Visit also ELECTROCHEMICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY INFORMATION RESOURCE (ESTIR) a listing of electrochemistry related websites, books, proceedings, reviews, graduate schools, societies, journals, meetings, etc, etc. Many thousands of information items.


Go to the Table of Contents below or search the whole Encyclopedia. You can find an article of interest also in the Author Index or in the Subject Index.

Two kinds of links are provided in the articles. Ones that are shown in "italics" refer to other articles in the Encyclopedia. Others refer to the "Electrochemistry Dictionary" for terms that may be unfamiliar for the reader.

Most figures in the articles are backed up by a larger figure. Click anywhere in the figure if your browser does not display it satisfactorily.

Search

Go to: TopTable of Contents

Supply a search term. This can be a single word or a string (maximum four) of words. The search is case insensitive. Leading and trailing characters of the search term can be omitted. For example: you can search for "battery" or "batteries". To find both, you can search for "batter" (or even "atter"). You can search for "fuel cells" or "fuel cell", the latter will find both.

This type of search may give many unvanted results. For example, if you are looking for the metal "iron," you will also find "environment." You can carry out an "exact" search to avoid this.


Leading and trailing characters of the search term can be omitted.
Exact search, leading and trailing characters of the search term cannot be omitted.
