Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry

Zuhair A. Munir mostly deals with Metallurgy, Combustion, Sintering, Intermetallic and Spark plasma sintering. His Combustion research integrates issues from Porosity, Inorganic chemistry, Phase, Titanium and Chemical engineering. His work on Relative density as part of general Sintering research is often related to Electric current, thus linking different fields of science.

His Intermetallic study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Joule heating and Electromigration. His Spark plasma sintering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Reactivity, Grain growth and Crystallite. The various areas that Zuhair A. Munir examines in his Composite material study include Mineralogy and Transition metal.

His most cited work include:

  • 1000 at 1000: The effect of electric field and pressure on the synthesis and consolidation of materials: a review of the spark plasma sintering method. (919 citations)
  • Self-propagating exothermic reactions: the synthesis of high-temperature materials by combustion (910 citations)
  • Electric Current Activation of Sintering: A Review of the Pulsed Electric Current Sintering Process (451 citations)

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

Zuhair A. Munir focuses on Metallurgy, Combustion, Composite material, Sintering and Analytical chemistry. His Chemical engineering research extends to the thematically linked field of Metallurgy. His study in Chemical engineering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inorganic chemistry, Ignition system, Aluminium, Crystallite and Titanium.

The concepts of his Combustion study are interwoven with issues in Wave propagation, Stoichiometry, Mineralogy and Particle size. His research in Sintering intersects with topics in Oxide and Thermite. The Analytical chemistry study which covers Phase that intersects with Solid solution and Diffusion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Metallurgy (35.85%)
  • Combustion (31.70%)
  • Composite material (24.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Spark plasma sintering (19.62%)
  • Sintering (23.77%)
  • Metallurgy (35.85%)

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

Zuhair A. Munir spends much of his time researching Spark plasma sintering, Sintering, Metallurgy, Analytical chemistry and Grain size. His Spark plasma sintering research is covered under the topics of Ceramic and Composite material. His Sintering research includes themes of Sol-gel, Chemical engineering, Material properties and Current.

His research combines Doping and Metallurgy. His research in Analytical chemistry intersects with topics in Transmittance and Crystallization. His Grain size research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cubic zirconia, Yttria-stabilized zirconia, Grain boundary and Nanocrystalline material.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Electric Current Activation of Sintering: A Review of the Pulsed Electric Current Sintering Process (451 citations)
  • Pressure effects and grain growth kinetics in the consolidation of nanostructured fully stabilized zirconia by pulsed electric current sintering (63 citations)
  • Effect of single-walled carbon nanotubes on thermal and electrical properties of silicon nitride processed using spark plasma sintering (48 citations)

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

  • Oxygen
  • Composite material
  • Organic chemistry

His primary areas of investigation include Sintering, Grain size, Metallurgy, Spark plasma sintering and Grain boundary. His studies deal with areas such as Scientific method, Material properties, Engineering physics and Current as well as Sintering. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Grain size, Cubic zirconia is strongly linked to Nanocrystalline material.

The Metallurgy study combines topics in areas such as Doping, Seebeck coefficient, Thermoelectric effect, Thermoelectric materials and Atmospheric temperature range. Spark plasma sintering is a subfield of Composite material that Zuhair A. Munir explores. His Grain boundary research incorporates themes from Chemical physics, Inorganic chemistry and Conductivity.
