Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgen)-functionalized organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticles (OINPs) are an emerging category of multifunctional nanomaterials with vast potential applications. The spatial arrangement and positioning of AIEgens and inorganic compounds in AIEgen-functionalized OINPs determine the structures, properties, and functionalities of the self-assembled nanomaterials. In this work, a facile and general emulsion self-assembly tactic for synthesizing well-defined AIEgen-functionalized OINPs is proposed by coassembling alkane chain-functionalized inorganic nanoparticles with hydrophobic organic AIEgens. As a proof of concept, the self-assembly and structural evolution of plasmonic-fluorescent hybrid nanoparticles (PFNPs) from concentric circle to core shell and then to Janus structures is demonstrated by using alkane chain-modified AuNPs and AIEgens as building blocks. The spatial position of AuNPs in the signal nanocomposite is controlled by varying the alkane ligand length and density on the AuNP surface. The mechanism behind the formation of various PFNP nanostructures is also elucidated through experiments and theoretical simulation. The obtained PFNPs with diverse structures exhibit spatially tunable optical and photothermal properties for advanced applications in multicolor and multimode immunolabeling and photothermal sterilization. This work presents an innovative synthetic approach of constructing AIEgen-functionalized OINPs with diverse structures, compositions, and functionalities, thereby championing the progressive development of these OINPs.

Abstract
CONTEXT The controlled slow evaporation process conducted at room temperature has produced a novel hybrid material denoted as (2-hydroxyethyl) trimethylammonium dihydrogen phosphate [2-HDETDHP] (C5H14NO+, H2PO4-), synthesized through the solution growth method. X-ray crystallography analysis reveals a triclinic structure with a filling rate of P and a Z value of 2. This hybrid material displays noteworthy absorption characteristics in the middle and far ultraviolet regions. UV-visible spectroscopy further establishes its transparency in the visible and near-visible ultraviolet domains. FT-IR spectroscopy examines various vibration modes, elucidating their relationships with the functional groups within the structure. Two- and three-dimensional fingerprint maps, coupled with three-dimensional crystal structures through Hirshfeld Surface Analysis, unveil the dominance of O•••H and H•••H interactions in the structure, comprising 49.40% and 50.40%, respectively. Fingerprint plots derived from the Hirshfeld surface assess the percentages of hydrogen bonding interactions, with 80.6% attributed to a fragment patch. The experiment of antimicrobial efficacy of a synthesized product, conducted in triplicate, demonstrated the synthesized product's potential antimicrobial activity. METHODS Hirshfeld surfaces are employed to investigate intermolecular hydrogen bonding, specifically within single phosphate groups. The molecular structure of 2-HDETDHP was refined using single-crystal X-ray analysis, while its optical characteristics were examined through UV-visible spectroscopy. FT-IR spectroscopy is employed for the assignment of molecular vibrations of functional groups in the affined structure. Quantum calculations were executed with the GAUSSIAN 09 software package at B3LYP/6-311G level of theory, to optimize the molecular geometries. The antimicrobial efficacy of a synthesized product was evaluated using the disc diffusion method against antibiotic-resistant Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Aspergillus niger, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. Microorganisms were cultured on nutrient agar, and inhibition zones were measured after incubation, with streptomycin and amphotericin as positive controls.

Abstract
This review summarizes recent developments in amperometric biosensors, based on one-step electrodeposited organic-inorganic hybrid layers, used for analysis of low molecular weight compounds. The factors affecting self-assembly of one-step electrodeposited films, methods for verifying their composition, advantages, limitations and approaches affecting the electroanalytical performance of amperometric biosensors based on organic-inorganic hybrid layers were systemized. Moreover, issues related to the formation of one-step organic-inorganic hybrid functional layers with different structures in biosensors produced under the same electrodeposition parameters are discussed. The systemized dependencies can support the preliminary choice of functional sensing layers with architectures tuned for specific biotechnology and life science applications. Finally, the capabilities of one-step electrodeposition of organic-inorganic hybrid functional films beyond amperometric biosensors were highlighted.

Abstract
Although epoxy-based composites that consist of inorganic fillers and matrixes are widely used in "conventional" electronic packaging applications due to their excellent insulation and robust properties, they limit their uses in "advanced electronic packaging" which requires enhanced thermal conductivity. However, conventional thermal curing methods for fabrication of epoxy-based composites do not fulfill sufficient thermal conductivity. Herein, we apply photo-induced curing strategy for fabricating alumina-incorporated epoxy-siloxane composites that consist of sol-gel derived siloxane matrix and bimodal sized alumina particles as a thermally conductive filler. We investigate how curing mechanism (thermal- or UV-curing) and varying the ratios of the alumina particles of two different sizes affect the various physical properties. It is found that photo-curing process makes greatly enhanced thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, and high mechanical robustness compared to thermally-cured composites. As the results, we can achieve significantly enhanced thermal conductivity (>11 W/m K) with high thermal stability and mechanical robustness.

Abstract
Gelatin, widely employed in hydrogel dressings, faces limitations when used in high fluid environments, hindering effective material adhesion to wound sites and subsequently reducing treatment efficacy. The rapid degradation of conventional hydrogels often results in breakdown before complete wound healing. Thus, there is a pressing need for the development of durable adhesive wound dressings. In this study, 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) was utilized as a coupling agent to create gelatin-silica hybrid (G-H) dressings through the sol-gel method. The coupling reaction established covalent bonds between gelatin and silica networks, enhancing structural stability. Dopamine (DP) was introduced to this hybrid (G-H-D) dressing to further boost adhesiveness. The efficacy of the dressings for wound management was assessed through in-vitro and in-vivo tests, along with ex-vivo bioadhesion testing on pig skin. Tensile bioadhesion tests demonstrated that the G-H-D material exhibited approximately 2.5 times greater adhesion to soft tissue in wet conditions compared to pure gelatin. Moreover, in-vitro and in-vivo wound healing experiments revealed a significant increase in wound healing rates. Consequently, this material shows promise as a viable option for use as a moist wound dressing.

Abstract
The field of hybrid materials has grown so wildly in the last 30 years that writing a comprehensive review has turned into an impossible mission. Yet, the need for a general view of the field remains, and it would be certainly useful to draw a scientific and technological map connecting the dots of the very different subfields of hybrid materials, a map which could relate the essential common characteristics of these fascinating materials while providing an overview of the very different combinations, synthetic approaches, and final applications formulated in this field, which has become a whole world. That is why we decided to write this metareview, that is, a review of reviews that could provide an eagle's eye view of a complex and varied landscape of materials which nevertheless share a common driving force: the power of hybridization.

Abstract
Monodispersed gelatin hydrogel beads containing smectite with adsorbed cyanine dye exhibit chromotropic responses to compression and swelling/deswelling by solvent. Photoluminescence color of the beads changes by swelling in water (blue) and deswelling in ethanol (purple) reversibly. The forces generated by swelling/deswelling are thought to induce the transition between the J-aggregate and the monomer of cyanine dye adsorbed on smectite, giving the photoluminescent color changes.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic materials have attracted attention because of the advantages of both organic and inorganic resins. Among their disadvantages, hard coating films made of organic-inorganic mixtures of resins have opacity and interface peeling problems because of organic-inorganic phase separation and surface segregation of inorganic resins. Although an organic-inorganic gradient-structured material comprising an inorganic-rich domain at the air interface and an organic-rich domain at the organic substrate has the potential to solve these problems, the fabrication of a gradient-structured material has not yet been achieved. Here, we describe the fabrication of an organic-inorganic gradient film by impeding the movement of organic and inorganic resins through radical photopolymerization of organic and inorganic oligomers. Moreover, we successfully enhanced gouge hardness by cross-linking with photobase-catalyzed sol-gel reactions of inorganic resins at the air interface. As a result, the organic-inorganic gradient coating contributed excellent gouge hardness (pencil hardness >9H), adhesion to an organic substrate such as polycarbonate, and transparency (visible light transmittance >99%T). In addition, we demonstrated that the formation of organic-inorganic gradient structures is dominated by the surface free energy and viscosity of each resin. Achieving a gradient structure required a significant difference in surface free energy (>20 mJ/m2) and high mixture viscosity (>65 mPa·s).

Abstract
Incorporating single or combined nanofillers in polymeric matrices is a promising approach for developing antimicrobial materials for applications in wound healing and packaging etc. This study reports a facile fabrication of antimicrobial nanocomposite films using biocompatible polymers sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and sodium alginate (SA) reinforced with nanosilver (Ag) and graphene oxide (GO) using the solvent casting approach. Eco-friendly synthesis of Ag nanoparticles within a size range of 20-30 nm was carried out within the polymeric solution. GO was introduced into the CMC/SA/Ag solution in different weight percentages. The films were characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR, Raman, XRD, FE-SEM, EDAX, and TEM. The results indicated the enhanced thermal and mechanical performance of CMC/SA/Ag-GO nanocomposites with increased GO weight %. The antibacterial efficacy of the fabricated films was evaluated on Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The CMC/SA/Ag-GO2% nanocomposite exhibited the highest zone of inhibition of 21.30 ± 0.70 mm against E. coli and 18.00 ± 1.00 mm against S. aureus. The CMC/SA/Ag-GO nanocomposites exhibited excellent antibacterial activity as compared to CMC/SA and CMC/SA-Ag due to the synergetic bacterial growth inhibition activities of the GO and Ag. The cytotoxic activity of the prepared nanocomposite films was also assessed to investigate their biocompatibility.

Abstract
Organic–inorganic hybrid materials have become indispensable high-performance and highly functional materials. This is owing to the improved dispersion control in hybrid materials and emergence of functional ionic liquids. Harmonization of both these factors has enabled the utilization of functional 3D network structures and nanodispersions in composite materials. Polymeric materials endow materials with flexibility, toughness, and shape-memory properties, whereas inorganic materials provide materials with unique optical, electrical, and magnetic properties due to their nanosize. Organic–inorganic hybrid materials have evolved into novel materials that go beyond the composite rule. In this review, the historical development of hybrid materials prepared using the sol-gel method and the birth of ionic liquids have been summarized. In addition, the historical results leading to the development of functional 3D network structures and dispersion control have also been presented, as well as a review of the research on functional ionic liquids, which are of current interest. The authors also summarize the results of their research on functional ionic liquids. The design of new organic–inorganic hybrid materials has been discussed and the future prospects of new polymer composite materials provided.

Abstract
The integration of aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) and inorganic constituents to generate multifunctional nanocomposites has attracted much attention because it couples the bright aggregate-state fluorescence of AIEgens with the diverse imaging modalities of inorganic constituents. Herein, a facile and universal strategy to prepare metal-phenolic-network (MPN)-coated AIE dots in a high encapsulation efficiency is reported. Through precise control on the nucleation of AIEgens and deposition of MPNs in tetrahydrofuran/water mixtures, termed as coacervation, core-shell MPN-coated AIE dots with bright emission are assembled in a one-pot fashion. The optical properties of MPN-coated AIE dots can be readily tuned by varying the incorporated AIEgens. Different metal ions, such as Fe3+ , Ti4+ , Cu2+ , Ni2+ , can be introduced to the nanoparticles. The MPN-coated AIE dots with a red-emissive AIEgen core are successfully used to perform magnetic resonance/fluorescence dual-modality imaging in a tumor-bearing mouse model and blood flow visualization in a zebrafish larva. It is believed that the present study provides a tailor-made nanoplatform to meet the individual needs of in vivo bioimaging.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials are a promising class of materials for tissue engineering and other biomedical applications. In this systematic study, the effect of the polymer molecular mass (MM) with a linear architecture on hybrid mechanical properties is reported. Well-defined linear poly(methyl methacrylate-co-(3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate)) polymers with a range of MMs of 9 to 90 kDa and one 90 kDa star-shaped polymer were synthesized and then used to form glass-polymer hybrids. It was demonstrated that increasing linear polymer MM decreases the resultant hybrid mechanical strength. Furthermore, a star-polymer hybrid was synthesized as a comparison and demonstrated significantly different mechanical properties relative to its linear-polymer counterpart.

The Influence of Silica Nanoparticles on the Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Crosslinked Hybrid Composites. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14237431.

Abstract
This paper presents the synthesis and physicochemical characterization of a new hybrid composite. Its main goals are evaluating the structure and studying the thermal and mechanical properties of the crosslinked polymeric materials based on varying chemical properties of the compounds. As an organic crosslinking monomer, bisphenol A glycerolate diacrylate (BPA.GDA) was used. Trimethoxyvinylsilane (TMVS) and N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP) were used as comonomers and active diluents. The inorganic fraction was the silica in the form of nanoparticles (NANOSiO2). The hybrid composites were obtained by the bulk polymerization method using the UV initiator Irqacure 651 with a constant weight ratio of the tetrafunctional monomer BPA.GDA to TMVS or NVP (7:3 wt.%) and different wt.% of silica nanoparticles (0, 1, 3%). The proper course of polymerization was confirmed by the ATR/FTIR spectroscopy and SEM EDAX analysis. In the composites spectra the signals correspond to the C=O groups from NVP at 1672–1675 cm−1, and the vibrations of Si–O–C and Si–O–Si groups at 1053–1100 cm−1 from TMVS and NANOSiO2 are visible. Thermal stabilities of the obtained composites were studied by a differential scanning calorimetry DSC. Compared to NVP the samples with TMVS degraded in one stage (422.6–425.3 °C). The NVP-derived materials decomposed in three stages (three endothermic effects on the DSC curves). The addition of NANOSiO2 increases the temperature of composites maximum degradation insignificantly. Additionally, the Shore D hardness test was carried out with original metrological measurements of changes in diameter after indentation in relation to the type of material. The accuracy analysis of the obtained test results was based on a comparative analysis of graphical curves obtained from experimental tests. The values of the changes course of similarity in the examined factors, represented by those of characteristic coefficients were determined based on the Fréchet’s theory.

Abstract
Incorporating inorganic components in organosiloxane polymer thin films for enhanced mechanical properties could enable better durability and longevity of functional coatings for a multitude of applications. However, molecularly dispersing the inorganic dopants while preserving the cyclosiloxane rings represents a challenge for cross-linked organosiloxane networks. Here, we report a molecular doping strategy using vapor-phase infiltration. On the basis of the proper Lewis acid-base interaction between diethyl zinc (DEZ) and cyclotrisiloxane rings, we achieved a complete infiltration of the organometallic precursors and well-distributed Zn-OH terminal groups formed in the initiated chemical vapor deposited poly(1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-trivinylcyclotrisiloxane) (PV3D3) films. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and nanoscale infrared spectroscopy together with density functional theory simulation reveal that the formation of a Lewis acid-base adduct rather than a ring-opening process is possibly involved in anchoring DEZ in the cross-linked network of PV3D3. Because of the incorporation of Zn-OH components, the organic-inorganic hybrid films obtained via our vapor-phase molecular doping exhibit a 10.2% larger elastic modulus and 67.0% higher hardness than the pristine PV3D3. Unveiling the reaction mechanisms between organometallic precursors and cross-linked organic networks provides new insights for expanding the vapor-phase processing strategies for engineering hybrid materials at the nanoscale.

Abstract
The objectives of this study are to improve the thermal and mechanical properties of epoxy/fumed silica composite with different surface treatments of fumed silica. The addition of silica nanoparticles improved the thermal stability of the composite and slowed down the pyrolysis process. The crosslinking density and Tg of the epoxy/fumed silica composites increased because of the interfacial interaction between the PDMS-treated fumed silica particles and the epoxy matrix. The flexural strength of the epoxy nanocomposite was very high even at a low silica content because of the strong interactions between the PDMS-treated fillers and the epoxy matrix. These strong interfacial interactions originate from the attractive forces between the polymer and the filler. Therefore, the polymer nanocomposite containing the PDMS-treated fumed silica is shown to be sufficiently commercially promising.

Abstract
The structural, electronic, optical, and vibrational properties of B3N3H6 have been calculated by means of the first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and the local density approximation (LDA). The calculated structural parameters of B3N3H6 are in good agreement with experimental data. The obtained band structure of B3N3H6 shows that it has an indirect band gap with 5.007 eV, indicating that it presents insulation characteristic. The total and partial density of states (DOS) of B3N3H6 are given, which tell us the states of the orbital occupation. With the band structure and density of states, we have analyzed the optical properties including the complex dielectric function, refractive index, absorption, conductivity, loss function, and reflectivity. By the contrast, it is found that optical anisotropy is observed in the (001) direction and (100) direction. Moreover, the vibrational properties have been obtained and analyzed, showing that B3N3H6 is dynamically stable due to that there is no imaginary frequency. The frequencies associating with the vibrations are given, which show that B3N3H6 has a low mechanical modulus and thermal conductivity.

Abstract
A tremendous potential has been observed in the designing of long afterglow materials for sensing, bioimaging, and encryption applications. In this study, two different strontium aluminate-based luminescent materials; SrAl2O4: Eu, Dy (S1), and Sr4Al14O25: Eu, Dy (S2) were melt-mixed with polypropylene (PP) matrix, and the phosphorescence properties were evaluated. After excitation at 320 nm, the PP/S1 composite exhibited a green emission and the PP/S2 generated a blue emission at 520 nm and 495 nm, respectively. The emission spectra intensity increased by increasing the content of these luminescent fillers. The attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) experiments show that no chemical reaction occurred during the melt-mixing process. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results revealed that the total crystallinity of the composites reduced by increasing the amount of the fillers; however, no changes in the temperature of melting (Tm) and crystallization (Tc) of PP were observed. Both fillers improved the impact strength of the composites, but the tensile strength (TS) and modulus (TM) decreased. Poly (ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether (P) plasticizer was used to improve the filler-matrix interaction and its dispersion; nevertheless, it adversely affected the intensity of the luminescence emissions.

Abstract
In this work, organic-inorganic materials with spherical shape consisting of divinylbenzene (DVB) and triethoxyvinylsilane (TEVS) were synthesized and investigated by different complementary techniques. The obtained microspheres may be applied as sorbent systems for the purification of organic compounds from water. The hybrid microspheres combine the properties of the constituents depending on the morphologies and interfacial bonding. In this work, the influence of the molar ratio composition of crosslinked monomer (DVB) and silane coupling agent (TEVS) (DVB:TEVS molar ratios: 1:2, 1:1 and 2:1) on the morphology and quality of organic-inorganic materials have been examined. The materials were analysed using small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis, low-temperature nitrogen sorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to provide information on their structural and surface properties. Moreover, thermal analysis was performed to characterize the thermal stability of the studied materials and the adsorbent-adsorbate interactions, while adsorption kinetic studies proved the utility of the synthesized adsorbents for water and wastewater treatment.

Abstract
In this study, we improved the photosensitivity of the lead sulfide quantum dot (PbS QD)-based shortwave infrared (SWIR: 1.0-2.5 μm) photodetector by blending poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) with PbS QD. The PbS QD used for SWIR photoactive layer showed an absorption peak at 1410 nm. In addition, by using zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) as an interlayer, we obtained the stable current characteristics of our device. To confirm the effectiveness of P3HT on the PbS QD-based SWIR photodetector, we compared the electrical characteristics of a PbS QD-based device with a hybrid P3HT:PbS QD-based device. In the reverse bias region, the current on/off ratio of the PbS QD-based device was 1.3, whereas the on/off ratio of the hybrid P3HT:PbS QD-based device was 2.9; 2.2 times higher than the PbS QD-based device. At -1 V, the on/off ratio of the PbS QD-based device was 1.3 and the on/off ratio of the hybrid P3HT:PbS QD-based device was 3.4; 2.6 times higher than the PbS QD-based device. The fabricated P3HT:PbS QD-based device had the highest on/off ratio when -1 V voltage was applied.

Abstract
Materials that exhibit the photo-induced magnetic-phase transition of titania are receiving significant attention because they can be easily switched between diamagnetism and paramagnetism by UV irradiation. However, it is difficult to store photo-induced titanium (Ti3+) in air because of its easy oxidation upon oxygen exposure. In this study, titania/polycarbonate hybrid films were prepared using linear 1,6-hexanediol (PHMCD), cyclic 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (PCHCD), or their copolymerized carbonate oligomers using the sol-gel method. The oxygen permeability of the hybrid film decreased as the ratio of the ring structure increased by a factor of approximately 32 from PHMCD with only the chain structure to PCHCD with only the ring structure. These hybrid films can generate Ti3+ under a UV irradiation of 250 W for 2 h, and the difference in oxygen permeability significantly affected the lifetime of the Ti3+ by a factor of up to 120. In addition, the tensile tests and IR measurements demonstrated that UV irradiation had little effect on the mechanical intensity and matrix chemical structure. Moreover, the magnetic susceptibility of Ti3+ present in PCHCD was confirmed to be 6.2 (10-3 emu/g(titania)) under an external magnetic field of 5 T induced using a superconducting quantum interference device.

Abstract
The influence of nano-silica (nSiO2) and micro-silica (mSiO2) in the shell and wood fiber filler in the core on the thermal expansion behavior of co-extruded wood/polyethylene composites (Co-WPCs) was investigated to optimize the thermal expansion resistance. The cut Co-WPCs samples showed anisotropic thermal expansion, and the thermal expansion strain and linear coefficient of thermal expansion (LCTE) decreased by filling the shell layer with rigid silica, especially nSiO2. Finite element analysis indicated that the polymer-filled shell was mainly responsible for the thermal expansion. The entire Co-WPCs samples exhibited a lower thermal expansion strain than the cut Co-WPCs samples due to protection by the shell. Increasing the wood fiber content in the core significantly decreased the thermal expansion strain and LCTE of the Co-WPCs. The Co-WPCs whose core layer was filled with 70% wood fiber exhibited the greatest anisotropic thermal expansion.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials are a unique class of materials with properties driven by the organic and inorganic components, making them useful for flexible devices. Molecular layer deposition (MLD) offers novel pathways for the fabrication of such hybrids by using inorganic metal precursors and the vast range of organic molecules with tunable properties. To investigate and understand the mechanism of growth a combination of theoretical and experimental data is needed. In this contribution, we present a first principles investigation of the molecular mechanism of the growth of hybrid organic-inorganic thin films of aluminium alkoxides, known as "alucones" grown by MLD. We explore the interactions between precursors by analyzing the MLD reaction products of the alumina surface terminated with Al(CH3) groups after the trimethyl aluminium pulse; this yields monomethyl-Al2O3 (Al-CH3-Al2O3) and dimethyl-Al2O3 (Al(CH3)2-Al2O3) terminated surfaces. The organic precursors are ethylene glycol (EG), diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG) and tetraethylene glycol (FEG). A detailed comparison with alucones grown with ethylene glycol (EG) and glycerol (GL) precursors is presented to assist the interpretation of experimental findings regarding the differences in the hybrid films grown by EG and GL. The results show that Al-O formation with release of methane is favorable for all precursors. EG and GL can lie flat and create so-called double reactions through the reaction of the two terminal hydroxyl groups with the surface fragments. This phenomenon removes active hydroxyl sites for EG. However, for GL the third hydroxyl group is available and growth can proceed. This analysis shows the origin of differences in thickness of alucones found for EG and GL.

Figueira RB. Hybrid Sol-gel Coatings for Corrosion Mitigation: A Critical Review. Polymers (Basel) 2020; 12:E689.

Abstract
The corrosion process is a major source of metallic material degradation, particularly in aggressive environments, such as marine ones. Corrosion progression affects the service life of a given metallic structure, which may end in structural failure, leakage, product loss and environmental pollution linked to large financial costs. According to NACE, the annual cost of corrosion worldwide was estimated, in 2016, to be around 3%-4% of the world's gross domestic product. Therefore, the use of methodologies for corrosion mitigation are extremely important. The approaches used can be passive or active. A passive approach is preventive and may be achieved by emplacing a barrier layer, such as a coating that hinders the contact of the metallic substrate with the aggressive environment. An active approach is generally employed when the corrosion is set in. That seeks to reduce the corrosion rate when the protective barrier is already damaged and the aggressive species (i.e., corrosive agents) are in contact with the metallic substrate. In this case, this is more a remediation methodology than a preventive action, such as the use of coatings. The sol-gel synthesis process, over the past few decades, gained remarkable importance in diverse areas of application. Sol-gel allows the combination of inorganic and organic materials in a single-phase and has led to the development of organic-inorganic hybrid (OIH) coatings for several applications, including for corrosion mitigation. This manuscript succinctly reviews the fundamentals of sol-gel concepts and the parameters that influence the processing techniques. The state-of-the-art of the OIH sol-gel coatings reported in the last few years for corrosion protection, are also assessed. Lastly, a brief perspective on the limitations, standing challenges and future perspectives of the field are critically discussed.

Abstract
Mesoporous metal-based materials (MMBMs) have received unprecedented attention in catalysis, sensing, and energy storage and conversion owing to their unique electronic structures, uniform mesopore size and high specific surface area. In the last decade, great progress has been made in the design and application of MMBMs; in particular, many novel assembly engineering methods and strategies based on amphiphilic block copolymers as structure-directing agents have also been developed for the "bottom-up" construction of a variety of MMBMs. Development of MMBMs is therefore of significant importance from both academic and practical points of view. In this review, we provide a systematic elaboration of the molecular assembly methods and strategies for MMBMs, such as tuning the driving force between amphiphilic block copolymers and various precursors (i.e., metal salts, nanoparticles/clusters and polyoxometalates) for pore characteristics and physicochemical properties. The structure-performance relationship of MMBMs (e.g., pore size, surface area, crystallinity and crystal structure) based on various spectroscopy analysis techniques and density functional theory (DFT) calculation is discussed and the influence of the surface/interfacial properties of MMBMs (e.g., active surfaces, heterojunctions, binding sites and acid-base properties) in various applications is also included. The prospect of accurately designing functional mesoporous materials and future research directions in the field of MMBMs is pointed out in this review, and it will open a new avenue for the inorganic-organic assembly in various fields.

Abstract
A flexible hard coating material displaying extreme scratch resistance and foldable flexibility was developed via the design of an organic-inorganic hybrid coating material employing an alkoxysilyl-functionalized polyrotaxane cross-linker (PRX_Si1). PRX_Si1 has a molecular necklace-like structure that can form organic-inorganic cross-linking points and provide large molecular movements. It was postulated that the scratch resistance and flexibility could be simultaneously increased because of the hybrid cross-linking points and dynamic molecular movements. To confirm this hypothesis, the crystalline structure and mechanical properties of the PRX_Si1-based hard coating material were analyzed via transmission electron microscopy, small-angle X-ray diffraction, tensile, pencil hardness, and scratch tests. Finally, the PRX_Si1-based hard coating material could form homogeneously dispersed nanoscale siloxane crystalline domains, and the strain at the break point was 3 times higher than that of a commercial hard coating material, resulting in no defect formation even after 5000 folding test runs. Moreover, the material displayed extremely high pencil hardness (9H) and scratch resistance.

Abstract
Organic polymerization remains a limiting step in the preparation of organic-inorganic hybrid materials with a strong concentration of the inorganic component. In this work, a high-pressure-ramp process was applied to achieve pHEMA-TiO2 nanoparticulate solids with an unprecedentedly high concentration (12 mol l-1) of the inorganic component, which is four times higher than that obtained after radical polymerization induced thermally or by photons. The inorganic nanoparticles underwent morphological and structural changes with an increase of Ti concentration above 1.5 mol l-1: they slightly coarsen and crystallize into an anatase polymorph. The material possesses a strong photochromic response related to the electron-hole separation at the organic-inorganic interface and can store 1e- per 5 Ti atoms. The electron storage capacity of the titania nanoparticles decreases upon crystallization.

Abstract
Novel graphene-oxide-reinforced silicone composites (GOSC) are prepared by in situ polymerization of silanes and low concentrations (<0.15 wt%) of silylated GO (SGO). After modification, the distances of the SGO nanosheets are successfully increased from 0.72 to 0.87 nm. Compared with GO, the SGO shows better dispersibility in organic solvents as well as remarkably enhanced decomposition temperature (T d improved by 100 °C). After covalently grafting onto silicone resins via in situ polymerization, the obtained GOSC exhibits greatly enhanced thermal stability (T d up to 400 °C and T g improved by 3-5 °C), increased storage modulus, loss modulus, and complex viscosity. The morphology, microstructure, interfacial adhesion of the developed GOSC coatings were carefully investigated. The GOSC coatings on metal exhibit good transparency (up to 90%), hydrophobicity, and excellent anticorrosion capability. This work provides a new strategy for developing high performance graphene-based silicone composite materials.
