Organic-inorganic polymer hybrids containing butyl stannoxane dodecamer cages (Sn_POSS) as nano-building blocks were prepared and investigated. Sn_POSS was employed as a linear, crosslinking or non-bonding molecularly blended unit. For this purpose, it was synthesized with two acrylamido, primary- or secondary amino, or with two additional non- functional groups, which were attached via ionic-bonded sulfonate substituents. The nano- building block was then incorporated in matrices such as PS, PAOS, PETA, PEMA, PHEMA and PPO-based epoxies (the latter with different mesh sizes). Sn_POSS reinforces the studied matrixes by filler-filler interactions (self-assembly to nano-domains). Specific interactions of the ionic bonds of Sn_POSS with suitable pendant groups of the matrixes also can generate reinforcement and suppress filler aggregation. Moreover, the Sn_POSS can undergo several types of chemical reactions like heat-induced oligomerization, dissociation of the ionic substituents, acidolysis of the Sn-butyl bonds, as well as radical reactions of the latter. The influence of ionically bonded cages on the hybrids' morphology, as well as their ability of dissociation and short-distance migration in the polymer network at elevated temperature, was evaluated by TEM, IR and NMR analyses. The mechanical...
