Inzelt G., Lewenstam A., Scholz F. (eds.) Handbook of Reference Electrodes

Berlin, Heidelberg: Springer-Verlag, 2013. — 351 p. — ISBN: 978-3-642-36188-3 (eBook)In the first section this handbook provides the fundamentals of thermodynamics and kinetics of reference electrodes, and then liquid junction potentials and salt bridges are discussed, as they are involved in almost all reference systems.
The following chapters present the various reference electrodes and systems as they are presently used.
A final chapter is devoted to the Kelvin probe and discusses this instrument as a reference electrode for contact potential measurements.Electrode Potentials.
Reference Redox Systems in Nonaqueous Systems and the Relation of Electrode Potentials in Nonaqueous and Mixed Solvents to Standard Potentials in Water.
Liquid Junction Potentials.
Salt Bridges and Diaphragms.
Reference Electrodes for Aqueous Solutions.
Reference Electrodes for Use in Nonaqueous Solutions.
Reference Electrodes for Ionic Liquids and Molten Salts.
Reference Electrodes in Oxidic Glass Melts.
Reference Electrodes for Solid-Electrolyte Devices.
Direct Solid Contact in Reference Electrodes.
Micro-reference Electrodes.
Conducting Polymer-Based Reference Electrodes.
