Preparation and characterization of acrylic polymer titania hybrid.A study of organic-inorganic interactions in hybrid materials by micro-hardness Vickers

摘要

Metal-oxide ceramer films have been developed using an acrylic polymer bearing a low amount of methacylic acid units (ca.4%mol) as the orgaic phase with titanium tetrabutoxide as the inorgaic solg-el precursor.The characterisation of free films was realized by various experimental methods.The formation of COOTi bonds prevents large scale phase separation between the organic component and the mineral network.
