This material was first synthesized in the middle 1960s by E.I. Du Pont de Nemours and Co., and was soon recognized as an outstanding ion conductor for laboratory as well as for industrial electrochemistry. The perfluorinated polymeric backbone is responsible for the good chemical and thermal stability of the polymer. Nation membrane swollen with an electrolyte solution shows high cation conductivity, whereas the transport of anions is almost entirely suppressed. This so-called permselectivity (cf. Section 6.2.1) is a characteristic advantage of Nation in comparison with classical ion-exchange polymers, in which the selective ion transport is usually not so pronounced.

In the following, selected examples taken from the more recent literature of pilot plant and production electroorganic syntheses will be presented. For a modern review the reader is also referred to recent monographs, such as Industrial Electrochemistry by Pletcher and Walsh, 2nd edn. [10] and modern reviews.

Physics in Brussels, his aim was to further the "progress of physics and physical chemistry." Jagdish Mehra has speculated that the emphasis on physical chemistry was cosmetic, rather than real, in order to honor Walther Nernst,52 but this seems unlikely. Like many industrialists, Solvay viewed the problems studied by physical chemists to have value for industrial production, especially with respect to the metallurgy of alloys and to industrial electrochemistry. 53 The Solvay Company contributed half a million francs for the building of the Institute of Electrotechology at Nancy, which opened in 1900 facing the Chemical Institute. 54...

Ostwald s classic book on electrochemistry has been translated into English.86 In addition to the theory itself, the reader is presented with a host of historical details relating to the 18th and 19th centuries as well as a discussion of Ostwald s empiricist views. Another work, arising from a conference held under the auspices of the American Chemical Society, analyses the major developments and technologies of. .. electrochemistry, electrosynthesis, electroanalytical chemistry, industrial electrochemistry, electrode systems, and pH measurement. 87...

Dimensionally stable anodes represent, from the commercial point of view, one of the more important inventions in the history of industrial electrochemistry. Even so, carbon electrodes were an entrenched and stable part of the mindset of the chlorine production community. deNora s sales technique was at first to offer use of the new electrodes at zero cost, only asking for half the dollar gains obtained by a company s use of the new electrodes. This technique created a market for the new electrodes, so that it could soon be replaced with a more normal sales technique.
