About the Research
Research Theme
Exploring the mechanisms of chemical reactions in soft materials
Keyword
Research Outline
Before joining ICReDD, I focused on the fracture mechanisms of soft and tough double network (DN) materials mainly from the perspective of polymer physics and fracture mechanics. Now one of my research interests is to understand the mechanisms of special chemical reactions in gel materials combining computational and experimental results.
