Basics of Battery Electrochemistry

11 Jul 2016, 13:30
1h 45m

Speaker

Prof. Petr Novak (Paul Scherrer Institut)

Description

The very first module of the course will introduce the definitions and expressions relevant to the technical electrochemistry. Then, the basics of battery electro-chemistry will be discussed including both the thermo-dynamics (electrode potential, cell voltage) and the kinetics (ohmic, charge transfer, and concentration overpotentials). Finally, the application of this basic knowledge to porous electrodes will be shown.
