Handbook of Nanoelectrochemistry, 2 Vols.

This edited book is devoted to different electrochemical aspects of nano materials. This comprehensive reference text is basically divided in 3 parts: electrochemical synthesis routes for nanosized materials, electrochemical properties of nano materials and electrochemical characterization methods for nanostructures. The Handbook is a reference work to chemists and materials scientists interested in the nano aspects of electrochemistry. The chapters are written by a number of international experts in the field and the content will assist members of both electrochemical and materials communities to keep abreast of developments in the field.

Describes the effects of nano-dimensions on the electrochemical properties of materials Covers aqueous and non-aqueous nano materials synthesis routes Helps readers to visualize experiments in nano electrochemistry through case studies Enriches readers' understanding of electrochemical aspects of nano materials
