Silicon-based organic and inorganic polymers
… the Si-O bond spans from the three-dimensional inorganic networks of silica (SiO₂), to linear high molecular weight polysiloxanes which display properties of both organic and inorganic materials. Part 1 of this dissertation describes the synthesis of three-dimensional inorganic SiO₂ networks and …

Analysis and reproduction of geopolymer concrete
Geopolymers are inorganic polymers based on aluminosilicates that are produced from synthesizing pozzolanic compounds or aluminosilicate source materials with highly alkaline solutions. Geopolymer concrete is a stronger, more durable and more environmentally friendly alternative to ordinary …

Material Design and Durability Characterization of “Non-Brittle” Geopolymer
Geopolymers are inorganic polymers that have resulted in wide scientific interest and broad development of applications. They possess intriguing characteristics that bridge polymer science and ceramics. Many inexpensive earth-abundant minerals and industrial wastes can form geopolymers; this …

Development and application of novel tracers for environmental applications.
Novel glass tracers, organic and inorganic polymers based on narrow band atomic fluorescence, have been developed for deployment as environmental tracers. The use of discrete fluorescent species in an environmentally stable host has been investigated to replace existing toxic, broad band molecular …

Exploring the Chemistry of Cyclopentadienyl-Cobalt-Cyclobutadiene (CpCoCb) Complexes and Synthesis of Side-Chain CpCoCb Polymers
Synthetic metallopolymers have acquired ample attention recently due to their potential applications as precursors to functional soft materials. Organometallic polymers combine the best of both organic and inorganic polymers. Polyferrocenes comprise the major portion of organometallic polymers. …
