Abstract

Sol-gel synthesized epoxy-silica nanocomposites find applications in many fields due to the possibility to widely range the structure and properties of such systems. The goal of this work was to investigate the morphology of anhydride cured epoxy-silica hybrids with different ways of silica sol formation (in the absence and in the presence of epoxy resin).
