My research includes investigation on cellulose nanocrystals (CNC)-cement composites. early-age properties of high performance concrete, chemical shrinkage and autogenous shrinkage, drying shrinkage and cracking, microstructures, and calcium aluminate cement. In early 2018, I joined FAFU, to continue my research in application of nano materials in cementitious materials, durability of concrete in bridge and pavement, green and innovative building materials, and alternative cement.
