Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Electrochemical Power Sources: Batteries, Fuel Cells, and Supercapacitors" is an excellent introductory text to electrochemical energy devices which covers material considerations, historical developments of the technology and future prospects, spanning fundamental mechanisms to engineering challenges at a high level perspective. The supercapacitor section in particular goes into much more detail of the materials. This text would be most useful for students studying an introduction to electrochemistry course."
