Problems solved by technology

Materials naturally undergo degradation and damage through normal use and fatigue stresses, eventually failing in the presence of macrocracks due to the propagation and coalescence of microcracks, often not evident in currently available inspection techniques

[0122] Example 1: PTHF synthesis

[0123] PTHF was synthesized from tetrahydrofuran (THF) in a 1-step procedure, catalyzed by a Lewis acid, boron trifluoride etherate (BF 3 ·OEt 2 ) and glycidyl methyl ether (GME) as initiators.

[0124] In a typical procedure, GME (1 mol) was dissolved in anhydrous THF (35 mol) in a round bottom flask at room temperature with continuous stirring. The solution remained completely clear and transparent, and after 15-30 minutes, BF was added 3 ·OEt 2 (0.25mol, catalytic amount). The reaction occurred very quickly as a sudden temperature increase and occasional color change (from clear to yellow) were observed, followed by a rapid increase in viscosity due to rapid polymerization of THF.

[0125] Due to the difference in ring strain of THF (5.63 kcal / mol) and ethylene oxide (27.28 kcal / mol), it is assumed that the epoxy ring is first activated by a Lewis acid to the corresponding intermediate 1 (Step I, Scheme 1). This is then subjected t...

[0130] Example 2: From SiO 2 Synthesis of / PTHF Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Materials

[0131] Samples were prepared with GPTMS as the sole silica source and TEOS as the additional silica source. SiO 2 The synthesis of / PTHF hybrids was achieved by a 2-step procedure involving the following:

[0132] - Coupling with GPTMS to form GPTMS-PTHF gels - THF polymerization initiated by the epoxy ring of GPTMS, by combining with BF 3 ·OEt 2 interaction activation.

[0133] - Hybrid synthesis by hydrolysis and condensation (sol-gel route) - addition of TEOS (optional), deionized water and 1M HCl.

[0134] The formation of the GPTMS-PTHF gel is due to THF polymerization, the rate of which is affected by the THF:GPTMS ratio. A wide range of THF:GPTMS concentrations allows the creation of hybrid materials. Preferably, there is an excess of THF relative to the polymerized volume. When higher THF / GPTMS ratios are used, THF consumption in the polymerization reaction slows down so that...

Abstract

The present invention relates to inorganic-organic hybrid materials comprising interpenetrating organic and inorganic components, wherein the organic components comprise polymer chains formed at least in part by ring-opening polymerization of cyclic monomers, and to methods for their production.

Description

[0001] The related work leading to the present invention was funded under REA Grant Agreement No. 289958 under the Talents Programme ("Marie Curie Actions") of the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7 / 2007-2013). technical field [0002] The present invention relates to inorganic-organic hybrid materials comprising interpenetrating (co-networked) organic and inorganic components and methods for their production. Background technique [0003] Few materials alone have all the physical, chemical and mechanical properties required for their applications. Therefore, combinations of pure materials (eg alloys, composites and blends) are often used to incorporate organic components (ie flexibility, toughness, degradability) and inorganic components (ie strength, stiffness, corrosion resistance, biological activity) of a single feature. However, there are well-known disadvantages associated with the use of conventional composite materials, mainly due to the presence of ...
