(57) [Summary]nDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention discloses materials and coatings comprising a multi-component composition characterized by improved uniformity, improved dispersibility, and / or homogeneity at the atomic, nanometer, and submicron scales. . These compositions are prepared by forming a component precursor mixture in the presence of at least one suitable organic reagent. Suitable reagents contain at least two hydroxy and / or carboxy groups in the molecular structure, form a rigid, geil-like matrix upon appropriate treatment, and decompose completely at elevated temperatures without residue. These compositions can be used for the production of ceramics, supports, supports modified with catalysts, electronic components, coatings, coatings, laminates, superelectrochemicals and the like. |
