Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry №54. Electrochemical Production of Metal Powders

Djokic Stojan S. (ed.) — Springer. New York, 2012. — 403 p.The present volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry brings readers the newest developments and achievements in the production of metallic powders by electrochemical and electroless methods from aqueous solutions. Although the deposition of metallic powders from aqueous solutions was intensively studied for years, the last summarized results (Calusaru) on this topic were published in 1979.
Electrochemically and chemically produced metal powders from aqueous solutions are of high purity. These powders find applications in metallurgy, automotive, aerospace, energy device, electronics, and biomedical industries. Disperse deposits and electrochemically produced metal powders are also very suitable for use as catalytic surfaces in chemical industry.
This volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry reviews the electrochemical aspects of the latest developments in the deposition of metal powders. Distinguished international contributors
have written chapters devoted to this fine area which may impact significant technological advancement in the future. Following is a brief description of chapters in this volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry.General Theory of Disperse Metal Electrodeposits Formation
