Electrode and Corrosion Physics

by Anthony T Paxton ...

The cost to the world's economy due to corrosion was said to be two and a half trillion dollars or 3.4% of global GDP in 2013. Electrochemistry as a discipline is of even greater relevance ten years on, in view of the world's desperate attempts to prevent catastrophic climate change by moving from fossil fuel to 'e-mobility' among other measures. This means that whereas electrochemistry in all its ... Read more
