New hybrid ''rigid inorganic core-soft organic shell'' systems based on molecular silicasols were synthesized by applying different synthetic schemes. Inorganic core was composed of molecular silicasols, which were synthesized from hyperbranched polyethoxysiloxane and tetraethoxysilane by polymer chemistry methods. Different organic modifiers were used to form soft shell of the hybrid particles. Obtained compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, GPC, IR and NMR spectroscopy. These systems will be designated for use as model objects for investigation of nanoparticles-polymer matrix interactions in polymer nanocomposites.
