Researching metals, glass, ceramics and ecomaterials, mainly in the fields of phase transformation, strength and fracture. Put forward the phase transformation theory of indentation crack, model and fracture criterion of brittle materials. The fracture criterion has been internationally used as a criterion in the field of brittle materials.

1． Reusing solid waster

2． Researching multi-hole materials

3． Deoxidizing of the iron scale and the application of the iron alloy powder in the automobile parts

4． Nano film on material

5． Surface treating on glass6． Phase separation and the crystallization of the glass-ceramics in the electric fields

First presented the phase transformation theory and strengthen-toughening method for glass and ceramics subjected to electric field. Discovered the phenomenon and mechanism of non-oxide stabilizing tetragonal zirconia. Invented techniques for fabricating superior decorative ceramics and glass-ceramics by using various waste materials. Actively developing ecomaterials for polluted water disposing and exhaust gas cleaning. These techniques have brought about great economic and social performance. Now leading a research group of more than 30 persons, pursues many profound studies in fundamental theories and application of advanced materials.
