An Introduction to Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions is a comprehensive coverage of solution equilibria and properties of aqueous ionic solutions. Acid/base equilibria, ion pairing, complex formation, solubilities, reversible emf’s and experimental condu…

The chemist has a vast range of high-tech catalysts to use when working in fine chemical synthesis but the catalysts are generally hard to use and require both time, skill and experience to handle properly. The Catalysts for Fine Chemical Synthesis s…

All volumes cover reviews on highly topical areas of electrochemical research and cover areas of both fundamental and practical importance. The result is a compelling set of reviews which serves equally well as an excellent and up-to-date source of i…

This is the second volume of the new series which continues the highly successful 'Advances in Electrochemistry and Electrochemical Engineering'. The series covers advanced topics in the area of fundamental and applied electrochemistry and engineerin…

Like its predecessors, volume three of this meanwhile well-established series covers selected topics from electrochemical science and its applications. The authors have been carefully selected among the leaders in the respective fields. Their authori…

This series, formerly edited by Heinz Gerischer and Charls V. Tobias, now edited by Richard C. Alkire and Dieter M. Kolb, has been warmly welcomed by scientists world-wide which is reflected in the reviews of the previous volumes: «This is an essenti…

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2007 awarded to Gerhard Ertl for his groundbreaking studies in surface chemistry highlighted the importance of heterogeneous catalysis not only for modern chemical industry but also for environmental protection. Heterogen…

This Guideline presents the framework of process safety knowledge and expertise versus the desired competency level in a «super-matrix» format, vertically and diagonally. The matrix references for potential remedies/required training may be tailored …

This book discusses voltage-gated ion channels and their importance in drug discovery and development. The book includes reviews of the channel genome, the physiological bases of targeting ion channels in disease, the unique technologies developed fo…

This extensively updated and revised version builds on the success of the first edition featuring new discoveries in powder technology, spraying techniques, new coatings applications and testing techniques for coatings – Many new spray techniques are…
