Abstract

A sol-gel process has been successfully utilized to produce hybrid materials incorporating polymeric/oligomeric components of polydimethyl siloxane(PDMS) with silicon glasses. All the samples made were transparent and flexible. Dynamic mechanical studies indicate that a portion of the siloxane species is phase-separated while the remainder is well dispersed. The effect of acid content were proven to be significant on the dispersion of the siloxane components and on the structure and properties of final products.
