Structures of POSS occurring most often: a – T6, b – T8, c – T10, d i e
– T12.
Within the latter class of materials increasing interest lies in the usage of functional polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) with a general formula (RSiO1.5)n having natural silica-type nanoparticles with a well defined structure and topology
as an inorganic phase. Cubic structural compounds (completely and incompletely condensed silsesquioxanes) are commonly
illustrated as T6, T8, T10 and T12, based on the number of silicon atoms present in cubic structure.
POSS nanostructured chemicals, with sizes of from 1 to 3 nm in diameter, can be thought of as the smallest possible particles
of silica

Hybrid organic-inorganic materials based on incorporating of polyoctahedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) into polymeric matrices have received a
considerable attention.A variety of POSS nanostructured chemicals contain one or more covalently bonded reactive functionalities that are suitable for polymerization, grafting,
surface bonding, or other transformations.
Covalently bonded POSS nanocomposites exhibit:
improved thermal and mechanical stability,
improved elasticity,
increased the resistance to oxidation,
increased the resistance to UV radiation,
reinforcement of the surface,
increased glass-transition temperature value,
reduced flammability,
enhanced mechanical strength,
