The sol–gel process was used to prepare amorphous di-amide cross-linked alkyl/siloxane hybrid materials (di-amidosils) incorporating europium triflate (Eu(CF3SO3)3). Samples with 200 ≤ n ≤ 8 (where n is the molar ratio of carbonyl oxygen atoms per Eu3+ ion) were studied. The conformations of the alkyl chains of the host matrix in the doped di-amidosils (essentially gauche) are not affected by the presence of th...
Novel amide cross-linked alkylene/siloxane hybrid materials (di-amidosils) synthesized by the sol-gel process have been investigated. Two samples identified by the notation d-A(x) with x = 4 and 8 (where x is the number of methylene groups of the alkylene chain) have been produced as transparent, amorphous, rigid monoliths, thermally stable up to about 381 and 400 ºC, respectively. In the d-A(8) hybrid the sili...
