Abstract
Abstract Nonlocal electrostatic (NE) theory is a convenient tool for taking into account the collective properties of the system in the phenomena associated with electric interactions in condensed media. Application of NE to electrochemical systems allows one to describe the structure of the metal and the solvent in contact. Basic concepts of NE with emphasis on the metal-solvent interface are discussed; various consequences in the theory of the double layer and adsorption are reviewed.
