Abstract

A new technique which permits the successful preparation of ORMOSILS (Organically Modified Silicates) with rubbery elasticity has been developed. Common alkoxides were reacted with polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS) and the microstructures were carefully controlled. Large monoliths of the porous rubbery ORMOSILS have been prepared. Gelation process was studied by 29Si liquid NMR spectroscopy. A structural model for rubber elasticity of ORMOSILS was proposed.
