Summary
Metal acetyl acetonates of aluminum, zirconium and zinc have been successfully incorporated into poly (tetramethylene oxide) modified TEOS based materials using sol-gel chemistry. Incorporation of these metal acetyl acetonates required modification of the reaction scheme developed earlier to incorporate titanium(IV) isopropoxide. Gelation rates and the physical properties of the subsequent gelled materials varied as a function of the metal acetyl acetonate used.
