However, the high platinum loading of  fuel cells - and thus their high cost - prevents their commercialization.  Non- or low- platinum electrocatalysts are needed to lower the fuel cell cost. Electrocatalysis in Fuel Cells: A Non and Low Platinum Approach is a comprehensive book summarizing recent advances of electrocatalysis in oxygen reduction and alcohol oxidation, with a particular focus on non- and low-Pt electrocatalysts.  All twenty four chapters were written by worldwide experts in their fields. The fundamentals and applications of novel electrocatalysts are discussed thoroughly in the book. The book is geared toward researchers in the field, postgraduate students and lecturers, and scientists and engineers at fuel cell and automotive companies.  It can even be a reference book for those who are interested in this area. 410 0$aLecture notes in energy ;$v9. 606 $aFuel cells 606 $aElectrocatalysis 606 $aElectrochemistry, Industrial 615 0$aFuel cells. 615 0$aElectrocatalysis. 615 0$aElectrochemistry, Industrial. 676 $a621.31 676 $a621.312429 702 $aShao$b Minhua 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437778903321 996 $aElectrocatalysis in Fuel Cells$91997664 997 $aUNINA
