Homogeneously dispersed organic–inorganic hybrid nanocomposites can be obtained by
increasing the interfacial interactions between both components via the formation of …

Polytetramethylene oxide based polyurethane oligomers with multiple triethoxysilane
groups have been successfully incorporated into a TEOS based silicate network. It is …

Titanium has been successfully incorporated into polydimethylsiloxane and poly
(tetramethylene oxide) modified TEOS based materials using sol-gel chemistry …

In this work, we have used FT‐IR spectroscopy to study the hydrolysis and polymerization
reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and polydimethyl‐siloxane (PDMS) in the …

Applicability of the sol-gel method to fabricate polymer-silica composites has been briefly
reviewed. The sol-gel method has been applied for synthesis of nanosilica in mineral and …
