Research Interest

Focusing on metastable material design, preparation methods (quenching, strong deformation treatment, microgravity preparation), and the key technical problems on application technology, such as the metastable phases obtained, low stability. Breakthrough technology: development new types of zirconium, palladium, and osmium alloy materials with both strength and high ductility, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high stability. Engineering application area: aerospace components, coastal with extreme corrosion environment, space orbit local environment detection.
