organically-modified ceramic

Also contains definition of: organomodified ceramic

Chemically bonded hybrid material which is a crosslinked inorganic–organic polymer.
Notes:
  1. Organically modified ceramics are hybrid polymers with inorganic and organic moieties linked by stable covalent bonds and based on organically modified alkoxysilanes, functionalized organic polymers or both.
  2. Though it is a commonly used acronym for organically modified ceramic, 'Ormocer' is a registered trademark and as such its terminological use is strongly discouraged.
