Abstract
In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a polymer prepared from a mixture containing a polymerization material and a polycondensation product of a partially hydrolyzed chelated metal oxide precursor. In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a process for making a polymer involving contacting a polymerization material with a metal oxide sol comprising a liquid and a polycondensation product of a partially hydrolyzed chelated metal oxide precursor to form a mixture and at least one of polymerizing and curing the mixture of the polymerization material and the polycondensation product.
