Introduction to Analytical Voltammetry: From the Fundamentals to the State-Of-The-Art

By Craig E. Banks, Elena Bernalte BSc MSc PhD, Robert Crapnell

Introduction to Analytical Voltammetry: From the Fundamentals to the State-of-the-Art provides a comprehensive overview and introduction to both the fundamental background and applied, advanced topics in voltammetry applied to use in analytical chemistry. The book begins with the basics including equilibrium electrochemistry, Nernst Equation, electrode kinetics, and cyclic voltammetry, covering the interaction at the electrode interface, as well as how to interpret this data effectively. It proceeds to detail the different aspects of electroanalytical methodology including various voltammetric (stripping, pulse etc.) and amperometric techniques with detailed treatments of electrochemical sensors used for the sensing in diverse fields. Subsequent chapters then introduce the state-of-the-art in electroanalytical voltammetry with emphasis on 2D material electrochemistry, forensic electrochemistry, sonoelectroanalysis, wearable technology, gas sensors, environmental science, biosensors, circular economy electrochemistry and additive manufacturing electrochemistry. Also featured is a timely chapter looking at the potential for AI and machine learning techniques for analytical voltammetry. The book is written primarily for advanced undergraduate or graduate students and their tutors in chemistry who need to understand how voltammetric techniques are utilized for the study of electrochemical systems and the development of analytical methods. They may be doing research in fields of electrochemistry applications, analytical chemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, and sensors. It may also be of interest to those in the adjacent fields of physics, materials science, environmental or pharmaceutical sciences where the techniques can be applied.
