Abstract

The crystal structure and morphology of inorganic−organic hybrid POSS nanoparticles, consisting of an inorganic core of silicon and oxygen and outer organic attachments of alkyl groups, has been studied using X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. These molecules self-assemble to form a hexagonally packed structure. Alkyl attachments are accommodated within the interstices of the hexagonal lattice. The results have implications for our understanding of the disorder in polymer−POSS nanocomposite materials such as those formed by copolymerization.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
