The demand for high-performance materials has strongly increased over the last decade. One way to improve their performance is to introduce material gradients as found in Nature (for example squid beaks, spider fangs, mussel byssal threads).
One path towards the achievement of such material gradients is the synthesis of hybrid (gradient) copolymers, for instance based on silane and organic monomers. Since not all gradient copolymers can be synthesized by utilising the reactivity ratios of the monomers, forced gradients have to be used. However, in order to obtain gradient copolymers at high conversions, living or pseudo-living copolymerizations have to be performed and so far only few hybrid (organic / inorganic) gradient copolymers have been reported. In this contribution we will present the synthesis of a novel organic / inorganic hybrid copolymer via controlled radical polymerization.
