The hydrolytic condensation of a
precursor synthesized by the reaction of equimolar amounts of
(3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane and phenylglycidylether led to a distribution of
polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) containing 8 11 Si atoms,
functionalized with amine groups. About 57 % of the NH functionalities were
active for reaction with epoxy groups. The multifunctional amine-POSS was used
to modify an epoxy network obtained by the homopolymerization of
diglycidylether of bisphenol A initiated by benzyldimethylamine. The main
effect of POSS modification was an increase in both the glassy and rubbery
modulus explained, respectively, by the increase in cohesive energy and crosslink
densities.
