Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry, No. 37: The kinetics of electrochemical hydrogen entry into metals and alloys. The electrochemistry, corrosion, and hydrogen embrittlement of unalloyed titanium. This important chapter discusses pitting and galvanostatic corrosion followed by a review of hydrogen embrittlement emphasizing the formation of hydrides and their effect on titanium’s mechanical properties. Oxidative electrochemical processes of organics, introduces an impressive model that distinguishes active (strong) and non-active (weak) anodes. Comprehensive discussions of fuel cells and Carnot engines; Nernst law; analytical fuel cell modeling; reversible losses and Nernst loss; and irreversible losses, multistage oxidation, and equipartition of driving forces. Includes new developments and applications of fuel cells in trigeneration systems; coal/biomass fuel cell systems; indirect carbon fuel cells; and direct carbon fuel cells. Exploration of the catalytic effect of trace anions in outer-sphere heterogeneous charge-transfer reactions. Results of the experimental and theoretical investigations on bridging electrolyte-water systems as to thermodynamic and transport properties of aqueous and organic systems. Revised version of chapter four in Number 35.
Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry, No. 36: The study of electrochemical nuclear magnetic resonance (EC-NMR); in situ both sides of the electrochemical interface via the simultaneous use of 13C and 193Pt NMR Recent impressive advances in the use of rigorous ab initio quantum chemical calculations in electrochemistry. Fundamentals of ab initio calculations, including density functional theory (DFT) methods, help to understand several key aspects of fuel cell electrocatalysis at the molecular level. The development of the most important macroscopic and statistical thermodynamic models that describe adsorption phenomena on electrodes Electrochemical promotion and recent advances of novel monolithic designs for practical utilization. New methods for CT analysis and an explanation for the existing discrepancy in Li diffusivity values obtained by the diffusion control CT analysis and other methods.
