Abstract
Metallized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes and metallized polyhedral oligomeric silicates are used as cure promoters, catalysts, and alloying agents for the reinforcement of polymer microstructures, including polymer coils, domains, chains, and segments, at the molecular level. Because of their tailorable compatibility with polymers, polyhedral oligomeric metallosesquioxanes (POMS) can be readily and selectively incorporated into polymers by common mixing processes.
