Solid State Electrochemistry
This textbook discusses the
electrochemistry of solids with particular emphasis on the properties of solid
materials in electrochemical systems. It deals with basic aspects of solid-state
reactions, assembly and geometry of solid oxide fuel cells, polymer electrolyte
membrane fuel cells, and batteries, with emphasis on the reactivity and kinetic
properties of solid materials such as sintering, creep, and demixing. Its
advanced applications involve the understanding of electrolysis cells,
solid-state processes as components of energy conversion, and storage
technologies in relation to the efficiency and potential impact. To this end,
the researcher or student with material should work with individuals
demonstrating a propensity for materials but may not have expressed specific
interests regarding their electrochemical characteristics or the opportunity of
putting such properties toward potential work in energy systems. Accordingly,
the book considers the perspectives of both theory and practical application.
