Jordan Brito’s research with collaborators at University of Maryland was recently accepted to ACS Applied Bio Materials and selected as an ACS Editors’ Choice!
The paper was selected for this honor because of its potential for broad public interest. As part of the ACS Editors’ Choice program, it will be freely accessible for six months.
The article, titled “Cationic Fluoropolyphosphazenes: Synthesis and Assembly with Heparin as a Pathway to Hemocompatible Nanocoatings”, is now available to read online.
PhD student Kartik Kumar Rajagopalan was invited by ACS to be a General Session presider in a hybrid session at the upcoming ACS Spring Meeting. The session will take place both virtually and in San Diego, CA on Wednesday, March 23, 2022.
Qing, Zhen, and Kartik’s research was recently accepted to Macromolecules!
The article, titled “Thermodynamics and Stereochemistry of Diels–Alder Polymer Networks: Role of Crosslinker Flexibility and Crosslinking Density“, is now available to read online.
Our group had an eventful trip to SERMACS 2021 in Birmingham, AL. Prof. Sukhishvili and PhD students Aliaksei Aliakseyeu, Diana Al Husseini, and Jordan Brito gave talks about the group’s research.

Kartik, Parvin, and Xiuzhu wrote a perspective that was recently published in Journal of Materials Chemistry A!
The article, titled “Polymers in Molten Inorganic Salt Hydrates Phase Change Materials: Solubility and Gelation“, provides a unique perspective on the role of molten inorganic salt hydrates as polymer solvents. It also highlights the application of polymer gels formed in these materials as shape stabilizing matrices for thermal energy storage. It is now available to read online.
Jordan Brito, Hanna Hlushko, Ashleigh Abbott, Aliaksei Aliakseyeu, and Raman Hlushko wrote a review article that was recently published in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces!
The article, titled “Integrating Antioxidant Functionality into Polymer Materials: Fundamentals, Strategies, and Applications“, aims to follow a materials engineer’s approach to designing effective antioxidant polymer materials with specific discussion of applications in biomedical engineering and food packaging. It is now available to read online.
Dr. Raman Hlushko’s research was recently accepted to Macromolecules!
