“…Or by ring opening polymerization by multi metal catalyst. 36 These materials are distinguished by their enhanced mechanical strength, thermal stability, and the possibility of manufacturing at less cost for those reasons, they have several important applications in many different fields, as protective layers on organic polymers, membranes, 37 anticorrosion coatings, chemical filters, plastics for space applications, in the optical field as optical waveguides, 38,39 optical limiting, 40,41 optical amplification, 42 and they are the bases for new types of contact lens. 43 During the last decade, (epoxy/clay) nanocomposites were obtained by in situ polymerization reaction of GPTMS with triethoxysilanepropylamine formylethyltrimethyl-ammonium iodide (APS).…”
