Dr. Hao Qian graduated from Zhejiang University and is currently an Associate Professor at Qingdao University of Technology. He is a recipient of the Class B Fellowship of the Postdoctoral Innovative Talent Support Program funded by the Chinese government. He has served as principal investigator for several research projects, including a sub-project of the National Key R&D Program of China, the China Postdoctoral Science Foundation, the Natural Science Foundation of Zhejiang Province, and key laboratory open projects. His research focuses on the design, characterization, and performance enhancement of protective coatings for engineering structures based on functional requirements, including: (1) Porcelain enamel-coated rebars for corrosion protection in concrete structures; (2) High-temperature-resistant inorganic anti-corrosion coatings for steel structures in corrosive and thermal radiation-coupled environments; (3) High-performance inorganic conductive anti-corrosion coatings for petroleum pipelines. He actively contributes to the academic community as a member of the China Civil Engineering Society and serves as a youth editorial board member of the journal Shandong Science. He is also a core member of the China-Japan Science and Technology Cooperation Innovation Team at Zhejiang University. He serves as a reviewer for several SCI journals, including Ceramics International, Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, and Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance.
