Abstract: Hybrid polymers with novel architectures based on POSS molecules, including tadpole-shaped, dumbbell-shaped, necklace-shaped and block hybrid polymers will be prepared using polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) molecules as monomer or initiator via living and controlled/living polymerization. The self-assembly behavior of these hybrid polymers containing POSS molecules in selective solution will be studied. The properties of these hybrid polymers containing POSS molecules will also be systemically studied, and their potential application fields will be explored. |
