Electroanalytical Stripping Methods (Hardcover): K. Brainina Electroanalytical Stripping Methods (Hardcover)
K. Brainina
R4,918 Discovery Miles 49 180 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Incorporating the latest theoretical and experimental developments in the field over the past decade, Brainina and Neyman's Electroanalytical Stripping Methods focuses on the theory associated with the most progressive stripping electroanalytical methods (SEAMs) and their application to environmental monitoring and industry. Wherever appropriate, it highlights the main advantages of these methods, including their extremely low detection limit, the low cost of the instruments used, the possibility of speciation analysis, and their use in the investigation of solids as well as solutions. The combined work of two eminent researchers from the former Soviet Union, the book closes the previous information gap that existed between West and East and now makes accessible the most recent developments from Russia, including a different approach to initial electro-crystallization stages, the interconnection between voltammograms of binary metal systems and work functions, and the use of these phenomena in applied stripping voltammetry. Electroanalytical Stripping Methods also provides a critical assessment of current achievements in the field of electrode materials, and in the design of electrodes and electrochemical cells used in stripping methods. Here, the authors provide unique insight into the advantages of graphite electrodes - largely used in the East - over glassy carbon electrodes generally favored by the West. The book presents a number of other modern ideas, including the theory behind and the application of a new internal standard in stripping voltammetry...the catalysis of metals electrodeposition on the foreign substrate with adatoms...and the electrochemical transformation of solidsand adsorbates and their use in phase analysis and the investigation of the defect structure of solids. Electroanalytical Stripping Methods will prove to be an invaluable tool for professionals involved in environmental monitoring, helping them to develop and use trace analysis in evaluating drinking water, food, waste, and other solids and solutions and to apply stripping voltammetry to the analyses of chemicals. Researchers in the food, clinical, and pharmaceutical industries will similarly use the book to develop and apply SEAMs for trace analysis. Practitioners in the microelectronics industry will find useful information on solids that will help them improve the quality of catalyzers, films, special ceramics, and semiconductors. Finally, medical technicians will tap this resource for the insight it can provide in the electroanalysis of blood, urine, and other body fluids.

Gabin Yoon
R5,043 Discovery Miles 50 430 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This thesis describes in-depth theoretical efforts to understand the reaction mechanism of graphite and lithium metal as anodes for next-generation rechargeable batteries. The first part deals with Na intercalation chemistry in graphite, whose understanding is crucial for utilizing graphite as an anode for Na-ion batteries. The author demonstrates that Na ion intercalation in graphite is thermodynamically unstable because of the unfavorable Na-graphene interaction. To address this issue, the inclusion of screening moieties, such as solvents, is suggested and proven to enable reversible Na-solvent cointercalation in graphite. Furthermore, the author provides the correlation between the intercalation behavior and the properties of solvents, suggesting a general strategy to tailor the electrochemical intercalation chemistry. The second part addresses the Li dendrite growth issue, which is preventing practical application of Li metal anodes. A continuum mechanics study considering various experimental conditions reveals the origins of irregular growth of Li metal. The findings provide crucial clues for developing effective counter strategies to control the Li metal growth, which will advance the application of high-energy-density Li metal anodes.

Electrochemistry - Volume 1 (Hardcover): G.J. Hills Electrochemistry - Volume 1 (Hardcover)
G.J. Hills
R10,492 Discovery Miles 104 920 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major areas of chemical research. Written by experts in their specialist fields the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, supplying regular critical in-depth accounts of progress in particular areas of chemistry. For over 80 years the Royal Society of Chemistry and its predecessor, the Chemical Society, have been publishing reports charting developments in chemistry, which originally took the form of Annual Reports. However, by 1967 the whole spectrum of chemistry could no longer be contained within one volume and the series Specialist Periodical Reports was born. The Annual Reports themselves still existed but were divided into two, and subsequently three, volumes covering Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. For more general coverage of the highlights in chemistry they remain a 'must'. Since that time the SPR series has altered according to the fluctuating degree of activity in various fields of chemistry. Some titles have remained unchanged, while others have altered their emphasis along with their titles; some have been combined under a new name whereas others have had to be discontinued.

The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience. Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.

Mathematical Problems from Combustion Theory (Hardcover, 1989 ed.): Jerrold Bebernes, David Eberly Mathematical Problems from Combustion Theory (Hardcover, 1989 ed.)
Jerrold Bebernes, David Eberly
R1,629 Discovery Miles 16 290 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This monograph evolved over the past five years. It had its origin as a set of lecture notes prepared for the Ninth Summer School of Mathematical Physics held at Ravello, Italy, in 1984 and was further refined in seminars and lectures given primarily at the University of Colorado. The material presented is the product of a single mathematical question raised by Dave Kassoy over ten years ago. This question and its partial resolution led to a successful, exciting, almost unique interdisciplinary col laborative scientific effort. The mathematical models described are often times deceptively simple in appearance. But they exhibit a mathematical richness and beauty that belies that simplicity and affirms their physical significance. The mathe matical tools required to resolve the various problems raised are diverse, and no systematic attempt is made to give the necessary mathematical background. The unifying theme of the monograph is the set of models themselves. This monograph would never have come to fruition without the enthu siasm and drive of Dave Eberly-a former student, now collaborator and coauthor-and without several significant breakthroughs in our understand ing of the phenomena of blowup or thermal runaway which certain models discussed possess. A collaborator and former student who has made significant contribu tions throughout is Alberto Bressan. There are many other collaborators William Troy, Watson Fulks, Andrew Lacey, Klaus Schmitt-and former students-Paul Talaga and Richard Ely-who must be acknowledged and thanked."

R1,655 Discovery Miles 16 550 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

New Edition: Understanding Voltammetry (3rd Edition)The power of electrochemical measurements in respect of thermodynamics, kinetics and analysis is widely recognized but the subject can be unpredictable to the novice even if they have a strong physical and chemical background, especially if they wish to pursue the study of quantitative measurements further. Accordingly, some significant experiments are perhaps wisely never attempted while the literature is sadly replete with flawed attempts at rigorous voltammetry.This textbook considers how to go about designing, explaining and interpreting experiments centered around various forms of voltammetry (cyclic, microelectrode, hydrodynamic, etc.). The reader is assumed to have attained a knowledge equivalent to Master's level of physical chemistry but no exposure to electrochemistry in general, or voltammetry in particular. While the book is designed to "stand alone", references to important research papers are given to provide an introductory entry into the literature.In comparison to the first edition, two new chapters - transport via migration and nanoelectrochemistry - are added. Minor changes and updates are also made throughout the textbook to facilitate enhanced understanding and greater clarity of exposition.

Po Hong
R4,394 Discovery Miles 43 940 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book focuses on water content estimation and control of the PEM fuel cell stack and the individual cell in vehicle. Firstly, the mathematical connection between polarization curve and equivalent circuit model proves importance of MEA and its feasibility to study water content. Optimizing structure of MEA realizes the internal water content recirculation of a fuel cell and improves its performance under middle or lower current density. The influence of water content on performance of MEA is quantified, and variation of equivalent circuit model is an excellent indicator of water content. Secondly, the comprehensive online AC impedance measurement method is put forward, including current excitation method, weak voltage and current signal processing method, and method for analyzing measurement error, and experiment validates measurement accuracy. The high-frequency impedance and statistical characteristic are proposed as indicator of water content. Finally, the dynamic model of the air supply system of a fuel cell engine is established and the closed-loop control of the air supply system and the water content estimation are decoupled. The experiment on a fuel cell system validates the proposed method for searching optimized operating conditions and the water management strategy.
