Abstract:
1. A method for forming a composite, the method comprising: combining well dispersed inorganic particles in a dispersant liquid comprising a polar solvent with a first polysiloxane in a suitable solvent different from the dispersant liquid and miscible with the dispersant liquid for solubilizing the first polysiloxane to form a blend, the inorganic particles having an average particle diameter of no more than about 250 nm and being substantially free of organic surface modification distinct from the polysiloxane, wherein the inorganic particles comprise a metal oxide, a metal nitride or a combination thereof, wherein the first polysiloxane comprises functional side groups, and wherein about 5 number percent to about 50 number percent of the functional side groups comprise aromatic functional groups or polar functional groups selected from the group consisting of —ROH, —RNH
