The structural regulation of H-bonding network in the chemically-bonded polyimide/silica nanocomposite with excellent mechanical stability and improved moisture resistance by Hao Wang, Ziqiao Wang, Naihang Kuang, Yujiu Yang, Chunhua Zhang

“…Polymer-based nanocomposites, being widely concerned for lightweight and high-strength functional materials, still exhibit irreversible failures to resist mechanical damage and water erosion. In this paper, a kind of hydroxyl-rich silica nanomaterial was prepared and used for fabricating the chemically-bonded polyimide (PI)/hydroxyl-rich silica (SiO2-OH) nanocomposite through the surface-initiated curing and the coupling reaction, which then regulate the H-bonding network within the PI matrix. …”
