His research interests are theoretical and computational chemistry, including molecular reaction kinetics, microdroplet chemistry, and catalytic chemistry. At present, the research group mainly carries out two aspects of work: 1) Microdroplet reaction kinetics and theoretical research, including gas phase, microsolvent phase, gas-liquid interface chemical reaction kinetics simulation, exploring organic reaction, free radical reaction, atmospheric reaction mechanism, etc. 2) Functional material design, including MOF/COF separation and catalytic material calculation, lithium sulfur battery cathode material design, and metal cluster activation of small molecules

In terms of reaction kinetics simulation, the dynamic mechanism of classical organic reactions was studied by using quantum chemistry calculation and kinetic simulation methods, the influence of microsolvation on the kinetics of ion-molecule reactions was revealed, and the acceleration mechanism of microdroplet chemistry and the phenomenon of inducing novel chemical reactions were discussed. In the aspect of functional material design, the theoretical design of cathode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries and the construction of new MOF/COF separation and catalytic materials were carried out by using first-principles calculation method, and their properties were explored.
