Front Cover
Springer Science & Business Media, Apr 8, 2008 - Science - 282 pages

This book is a systematic survey of the knowledge accumulated in this field in the last thirty years. It includes material on the thermodynamic aspects of the polymers, the theory of the mechanism of charge transport processes, and the chemical and physical properties of these compounds. Also covered are the techniques of characterization, the electrochemical methods of synthesis, and the application of these systems. Inzelt’s book is a must-read for electrochemists and others.

Page vii - ... that the elements consisted at first of certain small and primary coalitions of the minute particles of matter into corpuscles very numerous, and very like each other, it will not be absurd to conceive, that such primary clusters may be of far more sorts than three or five ; and consequently, that we need not suppose, that in each of the compound bodies we are treating of, there should be found just three sorts of such primitive coalitions, as we are speaking of.
