“…For the design of nanostructures with novel functionalities, the prediction of structure/property relationships from a multidisciplinary approach is essential [ 30 ]. The management and control of the structure/property relationship would give the basis not only of the advantageous properties but also of the limiting factors of these materials in biomedical applications.…”

Hybrid nanomaterials based on inorganic nanoparticles and polymers are highly interesting structures since they combine synergistically the advantageous physical-chemical properties of both inorganic and polymeric components, providing superior functionality to the final material. These unique properties motivate the intensive study of these materials from a multidisciplinary view with the aim of finding novel applications in technological and biomedical fields. Choosing a specific synthetic methodology that allows for control over the surface composition and its architecture, enables not only the examination of the structure/property relationships, but, more importantly, the design of more efficient nanodevices for therapy and diagnosis in nanomedicine. The current review categorizes hybrid nanomaterials into three types of architectures: core-brush, hybrid nanogels, and core-shell. We focus on the analysis of the synthetic approaches that lead to the formation of each type of architecture. Furthermore, most recent advances in therapy and diagnosis applications and some inherent challenges of these materials are herein reviewed.

Hybrid inorganic–organic nanomaterials have received increasing interest due to the possibility of implementing different functions and characteristics within a single material. Their functionalities are a consequence of the synergy of the properties of distinct building blocks and are related to their varied natures and spatial locations. In this work, we present the development of superhydrophobic properties on polypropylene (PP) surfaces using hybrid nanomateriales from TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) and dendronized polymers. The dendron acryl Behera's amine was successfully grafted on the TiO2 NP surfaces by Surface‐Initiated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (SI‐ATRP) and a core‐brush material was obtained. Finally, PP substrates were coated with NP hybrids to produce superhydrophobic surfaces with water contact angles of over 158 degrees. Controlling the organic silane concentration on the TiO2 NPs allowed the dendronized process to be driven and thereby permitted the selection of specific wettability properties on PP substrate surfaces with high water adhesion or self‐cleaning conditions. This dendronized effect with consequent steric congestion of the polymeric brushes on the NPs changed their behaviors from Wenzel to the Cassie Baxter state. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.
