Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry 40

This volume in the acclaimed series Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry starts with a dedication to the late Professor Brian Conway who for 50 years helped to guide this series to its current prominence. The book then covers a broad range of topics in Electrochemistry. In an authoritative manner, written by internationally renowned specialists, the remainder of the volume is devoted to the following topics: PEM fuel cells; the use of graphs in electrochemical reaction newtworks; nanomaterials in Lithium-ion batteries; direct methanolf fuel cells (two chapters); fuel cell catalyst layers. The book is for electrochemists, electrochemical engineers, fuel cell workers and energy generation workers.

MODERN ASPECTS OF ELECTROCHEMISTRY

No. 40

Edited by Ralph E. White

University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC

Topics in Number 40 include:

• Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cell bipolar plates, discussion of the difficulties associated with confronting bipolar plate development

• The use of graphs in electrochemical reaction networks with focus on analysis of variance (ANOVA) observation methods

• Nano-materials in lithium ion battery electrode design, presentation of a plasma-assisted method to create a carbon replica of an alumina template membrane

• Direct methanol fuel cells, extensive discussion and review of various types of fuel cells and advances made in the performance of DMFC's since their inception

• Direct simulation of polymer electrolyte fuel cell catalyst layers, presentation of a systematic development of the direct numerical simulation

  From reviews of previous volumes:

  "This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science Deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers."

-Chemistry and Industry
