We developed a molecular filler based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) containing halogenated aromatic substituents to increase the refractive indices (RIs) of polystyrene (PS). PS hybrid films with a series of POSS derivatives were prepared through the solution method, and RI measurements were performed. Accordingly, it was revealed that these halogenated POSS fillers can increase the RI of the films. In particular, the degree of increase was larger than those estimated by theoretical prediction, suggesting that the accumulation of polymer chains around the POSS filler plays a key role in the increasing effect. In addition, it was shown that critical losses of thermal and mechanical properties were barely observed by adding POSS fillers. Preparation without the conventional sol‒gel method for the single-molecule-type filler with high-RI polymer hybrids based on chain assembly can be demonstrated.

用于通过多面体低聚倍半硅氧烷链组装提高聚苯乙烯杂化物折射率的分子填料

我们开发了一种基于多面体低聚倍半硅氧烷 (POSS) 的分子填料，其中含有卤代芳烃取代基，以增加聚苯乙烯 (PS) 的折射率 (RI)。通过溶液法制备了具有一系列 POSS 衍生物的 PS 杂化薄膜，并进行了 RI 测量。因此，揭示了这些卤化POSS填料可以增加薄膜的RI。特别是增加的程度比理论预测的要大，表明聚合物链在POSS填料周围的积累在增加效果中起着关键作用。此外，还表明通过添加 POSS 填料几乎没有观察到热性能和机械性能的临界损失。可以证明在没有传统溶胶-凝胶方法的情况下制备具有基于链组装的高 RI 聚合物杂化物的单分子型填料。卤化多面体低聚倍半硅氧烷 (POSS) 填料可以增加薄膜的折射率 (RI)。特别是，增加的程度大于理论预测估计的程度，表明聚合物链在 POSS 填料周围的积累在增加效果中起着关键作用。此外，几乎没有观察到热和机械性能的临界损失。可以证明在没有常规溶胶-凝胶方法的情况下制备具有基于链组装的高 RI 聚合物杂化物的单分子型填料。卤化多面体低聚倍半硅氧烷 (POSS) 填料可以增加薄膜的折射率 (RI)。特别是，增加的程度大于理论预测估计的程度，表明聚合物链在 POSS 填料周围的积累在增加效果中起着关键作用。此外，几乎没有观察到热和机械性能的临界损失。可以证明在没有常规溶胶-凝胶方法的情况下制备具有基于链组装的高 RI 聚合物杂化物的单分子型填料。卤化多面体低聚倍半硅氧烷 (POSS) 填料可以增加薄膜的折射率 (RI)。特别是，增加的程度大于理论预测估计的程度，表明聚合物链在 POSS 填料周围的积累在增加效果中起着关键作用。此外，几乎没有观察到热和机械性能的临界损失。可以证明在没有常规溶胶-凝胶方法的情况下制备具有基于链组装的高 RI 聚合物杂化物的单分子型填料。表明聚合物链在 POSS 填料周围的积累在增加效果中起着关键作用。此外，几乎没有观察到热和机械性能的临界损失。可以证明在没有常规溶胶-凝胶方法的情况下制备具有基于链组装的高 RI 聚合物杂化物的单分子型填料。表明聚合物链在 POSS 填料周围的积累在增加效果中起着关键作用。此外，几乎没有观察到热和机械性能的临界损失。可以证明在没有常规溶胶-凝胶方法的情况下制备具有基于链组装的高 RI 聚合物杂化物的单分子型填料。
