For example, electrodeposition may be used for coating a substrate,corrosion may be a process design constraint, or electroanalytical chemistry may be used todetect a contaminant. On the other hand, the role of electrochemistry is often subtle, yetimportant. For example, cell membrane potentials are dictated by electrolytic processes,electrochromic smart window technology depends on ion conducting materials, charge transferreactions impact the efficacy of soil dewatering with electroosmosis, and more.
