Electroanalytical Methods

This fully revised volume offers a hands-on approach to current electroanalytical experimentation and applications, in addition to new coverage of quartz-crystal microbalances. An electrochemical theoretical background is established, with a focus on data evaluation.

Researchers and professionals will find a hands-on guide to successful experiments and applications of modern electroanalytical techniques here. The new edition has been completely revised and extended by a chapter on quartz-crystal microbalances. The book is written for chemists, biochemists, environmental and materials scientists, and physicists. A basic knowledge of chemistry and physics is sufficient for understanding the described methods. Electroanalytical techniques are particularly useful for qualitative and quantitative analysis of chemical, biochemical, and physical systems. Experienced experts provide the necessary theoretical background of electrochemistry and thoroughly describe frequently used measuring techniques. Special attention is given to experimental details and data evaluation.

Focussed on a thorough, hands-on description of relevant electroanalytical methods, this new edition is completely revised and now also covers quartz-crystal microbalances Broad range of applications in chemical analysis, environmental monitoring, solid-state physics, material and life sciences Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
