Abstract:

Polyphosphazenes are a broad, novel class of inorganic-organic macromolecules. The physical properties of polyphosphazenes can be understood in terms of a highly flexible backbone, with various physical or chemical characteristics tailored by the incorporation of specific side groups. As part of our program to synthesize new materials with hybrid macromolecular properties, the synthesis and characterization of several IPNs containing phosphazene polymers is described.
