Накратко на български
Хибридни материали от органични и неорганични полимери се синтезират, за да се създадат наноструктури като сфери, плочи и пръчици. Тези процеси помагат за разбирането на самоорганизацията на материята в наноразмер и разработването на нови химични съединения.

Final Activity Report Summary - AM (Hybrid Organometallic-Inorganic Materials: Self-Assembly and Nanoscience Applications)
Research support has been provided to M. A. Presa Soto and Ian Manners to work at the macromolecular / nanoscience interface at the University of Bristol. During these two years new hybrid Organometallic-Inorganic block copolymers (polyferrocenylsilane-b-polyphosphazene, PFS-b-PP) has been synthesized. The self-assembly of these new materials has been studied in solution and the solid state (thin films) yielding a range of different nanostructures (spheres, plates and rod-like structures). Unique block comicelles have been prepared by a living supramolecular polymerization approach obtaining new 'oval-shape' nanostructures. During this time, some additional related and/or complementary projects have been developed such us direct functionalization of polyferrocenylsilanes, which can be used to diversify the block copolymers, access to new boron-nitrogen containing polymers (of potential interest as additional inorganic blocks), and new ambient temperature routes to polyphosphazenes.

Цел на проекта
Based on the work so far an exciting new area would involve PFS-b-PP (PP = polyphosphazene) block copolymers. These materials would possess a highly tuneable inorganic PP coblock, which is superficially reminiscent of PDMS. However, the PP block is inherently much more tuneable allowing hydrophobic /hydrophilic or crystalline / amorphous or high Tg / low Tg substituents to be attached at will due to the substitutive mode of synthesis form chlorinated PPs. This tunability, which far exceeds the that with polysil oxane blocks, will allow us to gain deep insight into the factors that facilitate self-assembly of block copolymers in solution and will also allow us to access stabilized nanomaterials for example by introducing cross-linking groups. The iron present in the PFS blocks will also help characterization as no staining agents are needed to visualize the PFS blocks using transmission electron microscopy.
