The only comprehensive collection of easy-to-perform electrochemical experiments for both high school lessons and university lab courses. It illustrates the broad area of electrochemistry with respect to thematic aspects and apparatus used in the experiments. In addition, it highlights the interdisciplinary connections to related fields.
Following a brief overview, the book goes on to deal with electrochemistry at equilibrium and with flowing current, while further chapters cover analytical electrochemistry, non-traditional methods, electrochemical energy storage and conversion as well as technical electrochemistry.
Throughout, the author clearly describes every detail of the experiments and gives helpful guidance for the production of rare working materials.
Complementing textbooks on electrochemistry, this is a must for lecturers as well as for students in chemistry.

Rudolf Holze studied chemistry at the University of Bonn, Germany. He received his PhD for his work on components for electrochemical energy conversion and storage systems. Afterwards he went to E. B. Yeager at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, USA and focussed on investigating the structure and dynamics of the electrochemical double layer using spectroscopical methods. In 1987 he moved to the University of Oldenburg, Germany where he became assistant professor in physical chemistry in 1989. Currently Rudolf Holze is full professor at the Chemnitz University of Technology, Germany where his research is focused on structure and dynamics of electrified interfaces with emphasis on the development of experimental methods and the application of the obtained know-how on problems of technological importance. He is author of numerous publications and several books.
