In 1987 Dr. Bormashenko studied the mechanisms of destruction of ultra-thin island films by highly charged high-energy particles. In 2004 he investigated the vibrational spectrum of PVDF. In 2005-2006 he studied the breath-figures self-assembly and processes of patterning in rapidly evaporated polymer solutions. In 2006-2014 developed superhydrophobic and superoleophobic surfaces.
