Stable waterborne polyurethane/silica hybrid dispersions were obtained by sol–gel reaction of tetraethoxysilane added to previously synthesized waterborne polyurethane nanodispersions. Two series of polyurethane/silica nanostructures with different silica contents were synthesized using pure polyurethane particles and polyurethane particles previously functionalized with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) as colloidal templates. The optimum experimental conditions for tetraethoxysilane sol–gel reaction (T = 75 °C and semi batch polymerization conditions) leading to the formation of silica/polyurethane aqueous nanodispersions were established. The presence of silica was confirmed using TGA, FTIR, 29Si NMR and TEM. TEM images showed an excellent final dispersion of the silica nanoparticles in the polymer matrix when silane functionalized polyurethane nanoparticles were used.
