Achievements

DrSun has focused on the research of thermodynamic calculation forNb-Si based ultrahigh temperature alloys and TiAl alloys. Thethermodynamic descriptions of several quaternary systems have beenobtained and validated for the alloying design, microstructuralcharacterization and property prediction. Dr Sun has also beenworking in processing erosion-resistant and corrosion-resistantcoatings of Ti alloys. She has presided over seven projects,including the National Natural Science Foundation and ShaanXiProvincial Natural Science Foundation et al.
