UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:145194666 AB - The electrical double layer describes charge and potential distributions that form at the interface between electrolyte solutions and the surface of an object, and they play a fundamental role in chemical and electrochemical behaviour. Colloid science, electrochemistry, material science, and biology are a few examples where such interfaces play a crucial role. The focus of this book is on the application of modern liquid state theories to the properties of electric double layers, where it demonstrates the ability of statistical mechanical approaches, such as the classical density functional theory, to provide insights and details that will enable a better and more quantitative understanding of electric double layers. The book will be essential reading for advanced students and researchers in interfacial science and its numerous applications. ER -
