Pungor Ernő (szerk.): Coulometric analysis. Conference held at Mátrafüred, 17-19 October, 1978 (Budapest, 1979)

COULOMETRIC ANALYSIS Edited by E. PUNGOR and I. BÚZÁS The papers presented at the Scientific Ses­sion on Coulometry held at Mótrafüred (Hungary) in October 1978 are collected here. In the eight plenary lectures the develop­ment of coulometric analysis, its applica­tion possibilities as well as the new tech­niques worked out recently in the field of coulometry and their use in chemical analysis were dealt with. The discussion papers were mainly devoted to the practical application of coulometry. This electroanalytical method can be used effectively in clinical diagnostics, pharma­ceutical analysis, and industrial analysis. Several papers have shown the importance of controlled potential coulometry in theory and practice. A novel trend is the applica­tion of coulometric titration techniques in non-aqueous solvents for the determina­tion of weak acids and bases. The papers provide an up-to-date picture of the new coulometric versions of some acid-base, redox and precipitation titrations and of the possibilities of the simple and accurate deter­mination of various inorganic and organic materials. Finally, the reader of the book can get an idea of the developments in coulometric instrumentation. The book is useful for chemists doing scien­tific research or working in industrial laboratories.
