The aim of this book is to unravel the mechanistic pathways of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on different surface areas. This book describes the basic electrochemistry concepts which are necessary to understand the electrode reaction mechanism along with different electrochemical techniques. Electrochemical reactions to the exterior of the electrode are very significant. Some of the reactions are in the reduction category and some of the reactions are oxidation in nature. The oxygen reduction reaction is a very important reaction associated with various domains such as energy conversion,...

From last two decades, the use of various carbonaceous materials attract immense attention in the field of material science and organic synthesis. The diverse use of carbon allotrope and its functionalized materials is also noteworthy. In this book, we discuss about the physical and chemical properties of some carbon rich materials. The use of graphene and G-based materials is discussed by the authors. Supercapacitors are also made from graphene based materials and which is discussed in this book. The catalytic applications of graphene oxide in various multicomponent reactions is clearly...
