“…[368,369] It also revealed a good photostability under the laser irradiation. However, even if the hybrid composites materials based on Polysilsesquioxane bricks appeared to improve noticeably the nonlinear optical responses and stabilities, the processability in films or monoliths and their optical characterizations have not been reported so far.…”

“…Carbon nanotubes, well known for their optical limiting response due to nonlinear scattering of in situ formed microbubbles, [366,367] were also associated to POSS units (covalent or ionic bonding) in order to improve their solubility and optical properties (Figure 31). [368,369] The prepared nanocomposites with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and POSS showed much better stability in suspension and a better processability. These hybrids exhibited efficient optical limiting performances for Figure 30.…”

Research on hybrid inorganic‐organic materials has experienced an explosive growth since the 1980s, with the expansion of soft inorganic chemistry based processes. Indeed, mild synthetic conditions, low processing temperatures provided by “chimie douce” and the versatility of the colloidal state allow for the mixing of the organic and inorganic components at the nanometer scale in virtually any ratio to produce the so called hybrid materials. Today a high degree of control over both composition and nanostructure of these hybrids can be achieved allowing tunable structure‐property relationships. This, in turn, makes it possible to tailor and fine‐tune many properties (mechanical, optical, electronic, thermal, chemical…) in very broad ranges, and to design specific multifunctional systems for applications. In particular, the field of “Hybrid‐Optics” has been very productive not only scientifically but also in terms of applications. Indeed, numerous optical devices based on hybrids are already in, or very close, to the market. This review describes most of the recent advances performed in this field. Emphasis will be given to luminescent, photochromic, NLO and plasmonic properties. As an outlook we show that the controlled coupling between plasmonics and luminescence is opening a land of opportunities in the field of “Hybrid‐Optics”.

Organically modified cubic polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) have attracted increasing attention in the design of novel functional hybrid materials for applications such as porous materials, liquid crystals, semiconductors, high-temperature lubricants, fuel cells, and lithium batteries. The nanosized POSS moiety can be conveniently modified on the periphery with a variety of functional groups to lead to hybrid materials with desired functions. In addition, suitable mono-functionalized POSS derivatives can be incorporated into polymers as side chains via various synthetic strategies to offer a wide class of functional polymeric materials with tunable physical properties for targeted applications. In this Focus Review, we aim to summarize the recent developments on the chemistry and applications of POSS-based molecules and polymers. Moreover, the properties as well as assembly behavior of the POSS-based functional hybrid materials will be reviewed, and the relationship of the performance of the hybrid materials with the intrinsic nature of the POSS unit will be addressed.

“…Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS), a class of unique organic/inorganic components with a definite nanostructure, has become a new focus in material chemistry fields [17][18][19]. Having eight organic groups surrounding a cage-like core connected by Si-O-Si bonds, POSS is highly compatible in polymer matrix in comparison with other inorganic components, such as CNTs and ZnO NWs [20,21].…”

POSS-bound ZnO nanowires as interphase for enhancing interfacial strength and hydrothermal aging resistance of PBO fiber/epoxy resin composites

A new hierarchical reinforcement was fabricated by growing ZnO nanowires (NWs) onto poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers using a mild hydrothermal method, which served as a platform for the polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) grafting, using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) as a bridging agent. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed to characterize the surface morphologies of PBO fibers and the de-bonding surface morphologies of their composites. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed the chemical bonding nature between ZnO NWs and APTMS, as well as between APTMS and POSS. The reinforcement offered a 83.4% enhancement in the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) without degrading the base fiber.
