Electrochemistry in a Divided World

Abstract

The development of electrochemical science in Lithuania through the historical turning points of the country in the twentieth century is discussed. The creative pedagogical work of initiator V. Čepinskis and his efforts to establish infrastructure for the research have formed the background for the development of worldwide recognized scientific school of J. Matulis, R. Višomirskis, and P. A. Vaškelis. The achievements in the fundamental research of metal electrochemistry during the 50-year duration of the Soviet period generated several dozens of metals and dielectric surface treatment technologies, which were successfully introduced into the industry. The qualitative changes took place in the field of research objects and scientific production during the last decade of the century, the period of restored independence of the country. The latter figures plainly illustrate the fact that working in the open international scientific community is much more productive and more favorable for creation of research output of higher quality.
