The interfaces of neat water and aqueous solutions play a prominent role in many
technological processes and in the environment. Examples of aqueous interfaces are …

Water/solid interfaces are relevant to a broad range of physicochemical phenomena and
technological processes such as corrosion, lubrication, heterogeneous catalysis and …

Capillary condensation of water is ubiquitous in nature and technology. It routinely occurs in
granular and porous media, can strongly alter such properties as adhesion, lubrication …

Bulk water exists in many forms, including liquid, vapour and numerous crystalline and
amorphous phases of ice, with hexagonal ice being responsible for the fascinating variety of …

Nature takes advantage of the pervasive presence of water to control many enzymatic
reactions by utilizing the unique properties of water, which in turn help regulating reaction …

A small amount of water can enhance the catalytic combustion activity of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) on transition metal oxides (TMOs), but its intrinsic mechanism is still …

The structural dynamics of the solid–liquid interfaces (SLEIs) determines the chemistry in all
electrochemical processes. Here, by combining multiple operando synchrotron …

This book enlightens readers on the basic surface properties and distance-dependent
intersurface forces one must understand to obtain even simple data from an atomic force …

Water adsorption at metal surfaces is governed by a subtle balance between water–water
hydrogen bonding and water–metal interactions, which together determine the stability of …

We use microkinetic modeling to demonstrate that deviations from ideal Tafel kinetics, which
assume a linear relationship between overpotential and log-current, are an inherent …
