Publisher's Synopsis
In recent years electrochemistry has undergone a revival, particularly in its analytical applications. As a non- destructive method, with rapid response times and low detection levels, polarography is now in competition with other methods of analysis, such as spectrophotometry and AAS.;A wide range of voltammetric techniques are introduced providing sufficient information for an understanding of the basic theory. Practical aspects and the scope of each technique are explored using features they have in common, such as electrode and solution behaviour and electrical circuitry. Many examples of the electrochemical behaviour of individual compounds or classes of compounds are also included in the form of illustrations.
