Alvin J. Salkind, From Biomedical to Battery by ECS published on 2015-06-23T13:22:13Z The majority of Alvin Salkind’s life has revolved around electrochemical technology. From being the first to build a battery into an x-ray port tracking structure with state of charge, to run-ins with Einstein’s assistant, to his resolution of the structure of AgO using neutron diffraction, to his time shared with Nobel Laureate Rudy Marcus—Dr. Salkind’s impact in electrochemistry has been vast and immense. He wrote the books on "Alkaline Storage Batteries" with S. Uno Falk and "Techniques of Electrochemistry" Vol 1-3 with Ernest Yeager. Genre Battery
