ON THE COVER:
(left) Complex mixtures of hybrid organic-inorganic materials can be cured into mixed-graft interpenetrating polymer network systems to lend luster, depth, and environmental resistance to automotive finishes. (right) Examples of hybrid organic-inorganic materials containing organic chromophores (courtesy of Dr. F. Chaput, École Polytechnique Palaiseau). (background) Structural model of a bridged polysilsesquioxane prepared by sol-gel processing of monomers that contain a
variable organic bridging group and two or more trifunctional silyl groups. See the technical theme that begins on p. 364.
