Best answer:

Answer by mariskalenkampf Strudel v.Wurst!
Actually, most of them.

1) In the power and process industries, electrical engineers work closely with chemical engineers.
2) All types of batteries.
3) Electronic components are all made from chemical compunds.
4) Corrosion is electrochemical in nature.
5) Process control

Which most? I would say (1). Steam power plants require constant steam quality monitoring and chemicals to meet quality standards.

But (5) is perhaps, where chemical and electrical engineers work the closest. A control loop is a blend of electrical, mechanical and process chemical steps.
