Zusammenfassung: | For the first time, POSS moieties were introduced into an organometallic polymer to aid the formation of stable Co nanoparticles through the solid-state pyrolysis process. For comparison, its analogue without POSS groups (
P1-Co
) was also prepared. The results demonstrated that the introduction of POSS groups into the polymer (
P2-Co
) could effectively hinder cobalt nanoparticles from sintering into larger particles, even at high pyrolysis temperatures. Particularly, the silicon-oxygen cage of the POSS groups could be converted into SiO
x
, which covered on the surface of cobalt particles after pyrolysis. Thus, the obtained nanospheres had a unique Co@C-SiO
x
architecture with a much smaller and uniform size (∼8 nm), while the size of Co nanoparticles derived from
P1-Co
was in the range of 30 to 80 nm.
