Nanoparticles containing hybrid materials became of interest for many areas in the last
decade. The reason for this is the fact that, in addition to the molecular inorganic-organic …

Structural characterisations using the SAXS technique in a number of nanoheterogeneous
materials and liquid solutions are reviewed. The studied systems are protein …

This work discusses the recombination mechanisms and the chemical nature of the emitting
centers subjacent to the white-light emission of sol− gel derived amine-functionalized …

Nanoparticles have been fabricated by using chemical synthesis routes under specific
conditions. During a precipitation process from liquid phases, surface controlling agents …

A series of castor oil based polyurethane/siloxane cross-linked films were prepared using
castor oil, isophorone diisocyanate, and 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane by the sol–gel …

New organic–inorganic hybrids were prepared by a sol–gel method from the biopolymer
chitosan and a silane coupling agent, 3-isocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane (ICPTES), in which …

The use of steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy to probe the internal
microenvironment of sol− gel-derived organic− inorganic nanocomposites formed from …

Sol–gel derived hybrids that contain OCH2CH2 (polyethylene glycol, PEG) repeat units
grafted onto a siliceous backbone by urea,–NHC (= O) NH–, or urethane,–NHC (= O) O …

Urea and urethane cross-linked hybrids, classed as di-ureasils and di-urethanesils, were
prepared through sol− gel derived carboxylic acid solvolysis. The resulting nanohybrids …

The trade-off between high dielectric permittivity and low Young's modulus is always a
challenge for fabricating high-performance polyurethane acylate (PUA) based dielectric …
