Abstract Organic/inorganic hybrid polymers have been widely studied for their potential use in nanocontainers and nanocarriers.In this article,one star-shaped hybrid polymer,polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) grafted poly (N,N-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate)(POSS-g-PDMA),was synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT).The pH stimuli-responsive character of POSS-g-PDMA in aqueous solution were also studied.
