Electrochemistry now plays an important role in a vast number of fundamental research and applied areas. These include, but are not limited to, the exploration of new inorganic and organic compounds, biochemical and biological systems, corrosion, energy applications involving fuel cells and solar cells, and nanoscale investigations. There are many excellent textbooks and monographs, which explain the fundamentals and theory of electrochemistry. This handbook is not a textbook, however, but rather a source of electrochemical information, details of experimental considerations, representative calculations, and illustrations of the possibilities available in electrochemical experimentation. It is most closely allied with the textbook Electrochemical Methods: Fundamentals and Applications by Allen J. Bard and Larry R. Faulkner, second edition. The Handbook of Electrochemistry is divided into five parts: Fundamentals (Chapter 1), Laboratory Practical (Chapters 2–10), Techniques (Chapters 11–14), Applications (Chapters 15–17), and Data (Chapters 18–20). Chapter 1 covers the fundamentals of electrochemistry that are essential for everyone working in this field and sets the stage for the following 19 chapters. Thus, Chapter 1 presents an overview of electrochemical conventions, terminology, fundamental equations, electrochemical cells, experiments, literature, textbooks, and specialized books. Laboratory aspects of electrochemistry are emphasized in the following nine chapters that include Practical Electrochemical Cells (Chapter 2), Solvents and Supporting Electrolytes (Chapter 3), Reference Electrodes (Chapter 4), Solid Electrode Materials: Pretreatment and Activation (Chapter 5), Ultramicroelectrodes (Chapter 6), Potentiometric
