Qihui Wang obtained his PhD degree from Chongqing University and currently works there as a Lecturer. He is dedicated to seeking eco-friendly and high-efficiency corrosion control methods. He mainly focuses on the extraction of corrosion inhibitors from biomass such as plants, animals, and algae. Additionally, he employs theoretical calculations to explain their anti-corrosion mechanisms for metals in acidic media. His work is on route to be an important contribution to the development of eco-friendly corrosion inhibition technologies that are beneficial to both industry and the environment through further research and experiments.
