This new volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry reviews different methods for the production of metal powders including mechanical, chemical and electrochemical powders. Electrochemically produced metal powders are of high purity and they are extremely active during sintering. These powders find a wide-range of applications in automotive, aerospace, energy device and electronics industries.
Topics in Number 54 include:
- General theory of disperse metal electrodeposition
- Electrodeposition of pure metal powders e.g., Cu, Ag, Pb, Co, Fe and Ni
- Formation of porous Cu electrodes by constant and periodically changing regimes of electrolysis
- Morphology, phase and chemical composition of electrodeposited Co-Ni, Fe-Ni and Mo-Ni-O powders
- Electrodeposition of dispersed nanoparticles
- Electroless deposition of metal powders from aqueous solutions
From reviews of previous volumes:
"This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science... [and]... deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers." -Chemistry and Industry
"Extremely well-referenced and very readable.... Maintains the overall high standards of the series." -Journal of the American Chemical Society
"Continues the valuable service thathas been rendered by the Modern Aspects series." -Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry
