## Abstract Silica based poly(vinyl acetate)/inorganic hybrid composites were prepared __via__ a sol–gel process under acidic conditions. Because the phase behaviour of the hybrids is greatly affected by weak interactions such as hydrogen bonding between organic polymer and inorganic network, two t
