Abstract 

Hybrid organic-inorganic composites with varied hydrophilic/hydrophobic monomers ratio were synthesized by UV-curing of a mixture of acrylic monomers with simultaneous formation of inorganic network via sol-gel reaction. The composition of obtained composites was investigated by FTIR spectrometry. Thermal stability of the synthesized materials was studied by TGA.
