His Ceramic research incorporates elements of Sintering and Solid oxide fuel cell. In his research on the topic of Waste management, Sewage treatment, Industrial waste, Plating, Spinel and Galvanization is strongly related with Raw material. His work in Rheology, Compressive strength and Absorption of water are all subfields of Composite material research.

His most cited work include:

  • Effect of nano-silica on rheology and fresh properties of cement pastes and mortars (384 citations)
  • Characterisation and use of biomass fly ash in cement-based materials. (249 citations)
  • Effect of nano-SiO2 and nano-TiO2 addition on the rheological behavior and the hardened properties of cement mortars (151 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

João A. Labrincha mainly focuses on Composite material, Ceramic, Chemical engineering, Mineralogy and Mortar. Ceramic is a subfield of Metallurgy that he studies. His Chemical engineering study combines topics in areas such as Photocatalysis, Red mud, Inorganic chemistry and Oxide.

His studies deal with areas such as Microstructure, Grain boundary and Strontium titanate as well as Mineralogy. His study in Mortar is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Compressive strength, Waste management, Lime and Pulp and paper industry. His work carried out in the field of Waste management brings together such families of science as Portland cement, Cementitious, Cement and Raw material.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Composite material (23.38%)
  • Ceramic (20.56%)
  • Chemical engineering (20.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Chemical engineering (20.56%)
  • Geopolymer (8.45%)
  • Fly ash (9.30%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Chemical engineering, Geopolymer, Fly ash, Photocatalysis and Pulp and paper industry. His Chemical engineering research includes elements of Red mud, Microstructure and Adsorption. He is investigating Geopolymer as part of his Composite material and Compressive strength and Geopolymer study.

His Fly ash research incorporates themes from Kraft process and Mortar. His work focuses on many connections between Mortar and other disciplines, such as Flexural strength, that overlap with his field of interest in Shrinkage. In Waste management, João A. Labrincha works on issues like Raw material, which are connected to Metallurgy.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Novel porous fly-ash containing geopolymer monoliths for lead adsorption from wastewaters. (97 citations)
  • Porous biomass fly ash-based geopolymers with tailored thermal conductivity (90 citations)
  • Biomass fly ash geopolymer monoliths for effective methylene blue removal from wastewaters (77 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Composite material

Geopolymer, Porosity, Chemical engineering, Fly ash and Waste management are his primary areas of study. His Geopolymer study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Composite material. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Thermal conductivity, Curing, Adsorption, Aluminium powder and Microstructure.

João A. Labrincha has included themes like Leaching, Inorganic polymer and Zinc in his Chemical engineering study. His work on Metakaolin is typically connected to Biomass as part of general Fly ash study, connecting several disciplines of science. While the research belongs to areas of Waste management, João A. Labrincha spends his time largely on the problem of Raw material, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Curing time, Pulp and Lime.
