Composite materials show improved properties compared to pristine materials, in particular when the filler is dispersed homogeneously in the matrix. For polymer-clay composites, different strategies exist to improve clay mineral dispersion in the polymer matrix. In this study, an innovative approach is suggested which consists of forming a talc-like structure directly in a polymer matrix using a silanized polymer as the silicon source. Poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether of different average molar masses (Mn = 350, 500, 750, 1900 g mol-1) were functionalized with (3-isocyanatopropyl)triethoxysilane and added to the ethanolic solutions of magnesium nitrate. 1H-29Si CPMAS solid state NMR experiments revealed partial condensation of silane compounds, and FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of both Si-O and Mg-O bonds, but an additional proof of the Si-O-Mg bond is needed to prove the formation of such a structure.
