Abstract

The present state of our understanding of the influence of an imposed magnetic field on electrochemical processes is reviewed. In particular, the effects of combined electric/magnetic fields on electrolyte properties, mass transport, electrode kinetics and the quality of electroplated metals is emphasized.
