Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a nanocomposite material from a) at least one inorganic or organometallic metal phase; and b) an organic polymer phase; comprising the polymerization of at least one monomer M which have at least one first polymerizable monomer unit A which has a metal or semimetal M, and at least one second polymerizable organic monomer unit B which is joined to the polymerizable unit A via a covalent chemical bond, under polymerization conditions under which both the polymerizable monomer unit A and the polymerizable unit B polymerize with breakage of the bond between A and B, the monomers M to be polymerized comprising a first monomer M1 and at least one second monomer M2 which differs at least in one of the monomer units A and B from the monomer M1 (embodiment 1), or the monomers to be polymerized comprising, as well as the at least one monomer M, at least one further monomer other than the monomers M, i.e.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing composite materials formed from a) at least one inorganic or organometallic phase; and b) at least one organic polymer phase with aromatic or heteroaromatic structural units; comprising the homo- or copolymerization of at least one monomer of the formula I in which M is a metal or semimetal; R1, R2 may be the same or different and are each an Ar—C(Ra,Rb)— radical in which Ar is as defined in claim 1, or the R1Q and R2G radicals together are a radical of the formula A in which A is an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring fused to the double bond, m is 0, 1 or 2, and the R radicals may be the same or different and are as defined in claim 1; G, Q are each O, S or NH; Q is O, S or NH; and in which q, X, Y, R1?, R2? are each as defined in claim 1; which comprises performing the polymerization of the monomers of the general formula I thermally in the absence or substantial absence of added catalysts.
