“…At the end of the 1960s, research in biomaterials was initiated by the late Larry Hench and his co-workers, focusing on bioglasses based on oxide components. This tremendous breakthrough has led to commercial applications of the Na 2 O-CaO-P 2 O 5 -SiO 2 system for bone repair, enamel-healing toothpaste, dental restoration, drug delivery, and so forth [ 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Then, the interests of scientists evolved toward polymeric materials, ceramics, and composites [ 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ].…”

Rapid developments in materials engineering are accompanied by the equally rapid development of new technologies, which are now increasingly used in various branches of our life. The current research trend concerns the development of methods for obtaining new materials engineering systems and searching for relationships between the structure and physicochemical properties. A recent increase in the demand for well-defined and thermally stable systems has highlighted the importance of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) and double-decker silsesquioxane (DDSQ) architectures. This short review focuses on these two groups of silsesquioxane-based materials and their selected applications. This fascinating field of hybrid species has attracted considerable attention due to their daily applications with unique capabilities and their great potential, among others, in biomaterials as components of hydrogel networks, components in biofabrication techniques, and promising building blocks of DDSQ-based biohybrids. Moreover, they constitute attractive systems applied in materials engineering, including flame retardant nanocomposites and components of the heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta-type catalytic system.

“…27. 467 There are several factors namely glass composition, processing temperature, surfactant and gelling agent concentration, and the water usage in the surfactant that can affect the pore structure. 468,469 However, the most efficacious way of controlling the modal interconnect diameter is by changing the surfactant concentration while keeping all the other variables constant.…”
