| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was devoted to an establishment of a new scientific principle for generation of outstanding properties and functions by preparing organic materials with an organic-inorganic nanomatrix structure. The organic materials with the organic-inorganic nanomatrix structure were prepared by binding inorganic nanoparticles onto polymer microparticles in water followed by coagulation or film formation. The organic materials with the organic-inorganic nanomatrix structure was found to have not only entropic elasticity but also energetic elasticity by adjusting spacial distribution of organic microparticles and inorganic nanoparticles. The energetic elasticity was attributed to an increase in potential energy due to a restraint of the polymers in a narrow space between the inorganic nanoparticles, i.e., less than 10 nm, which was revealed by synchrotron radiation X-ray scattering technique, three-dimensional transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy.
