The content of this book is devoted to the synthesis of advanced nano-materials and layers by application of electrochemical methods. Examples for their applications in fuel cells, batteries, photovoltaics, magnetic materials, environmentally friendly anticorrosion coatings and surface pretreatments, especially anodization are provided. Cu-metallization of non-conductive substrates is proposed, as well. In addition, electrochemical coating of copper surfaces by Ni-Co, Ni-P, Co-P and Ni-Co-P alloys with catalytic and magnetic properties is described in detail. The application of such layers is proposed PEMFC bipolar plates, after additional coating by polytetrafluoroethylene. The topic of the surface phosphatation is further extended by brief study of the properties of cesium dihydrogen phosphate for potential application in the fuel cell technology. Meanwhile, the Zn and Al anodization, as metal surface treatment approach is also proposed. Among the electrochemical analytical methods, special attention is turned to Electrochemical Noise analysis, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, and to classical potentiodynamic scanning techniques.

Dr Stephan Kozhukharov has acquired his PhD degree in 2010, with a specialty in the field of: technology of silicates, binding materials and high temperature-fusible non-metallic materials, at University of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy (UCTM) in Sofia, (Bulgaria). His doctoral thesis was entitled: "Investigation and evaluation of nano-composite hybrid coatings for corrosion protection". He has acquired his MS degree in Chemical Engineering in 2004 from the Faculty of Metallurgy and Material Sciences at UCTM, with a specialty in Silicate materials, on Elaboration and characterization of red ceramic pigments with perovskite structure, presented also in UJI (Universitat Jaume I) in Castellon (Spain). "His BSc. thesis entitled: "Sterilization of drink water by immobilized photosensitizers" was presented in 2002 in UCTM – Sofia.". He is the author of 8 book chapters and more than 70 publications (h-index 13 and 660 citations), related to the advanced corrosion protection systems, ceramic materials recycling, spray pyrolysis synthesis and ceramic sensor elements elaboration. He has been an active participant in 4 international research projects and 10 research projects, with the financial support of the National Scientific Research Fund of Bulgaria.
