Electrochemistry of metals and alloys

The training edition of the electrochemistry of metals and alloys is intended for two-level training in the preparation of bachelors and masters in the direction of "Materials and Technology of Materials", as well as for students studying in the specialty "physicochemistry of processes and materials". It is favorably different from the existing educational literature on electrochemistry of metals and alloys by a detailed presentation of the foundations of physical chemistry of the surface of metals and alloys in diverse electrochemical processes associated with obtaining and processing metal materials. The book considers the foundations of the theoretical electrochemistry in relation to metals and alloys: electrochemical thermodynamics of metals and alloys, the kinetics of cathode processes of metal and gases, thermodynamics and the kinetics of the anode processes of dissolving alloys, the electrochemical passivity of metals and alloys. Used modern achievements of the physicochemistry of the surface of metals and alloys. The book is of interest to students, graduate students, as well as engineers and researchers working in the field of electrochemistry
