description A hybrid polymer of SiO<sub>2</sub>@Tb<sup>3+</sup>(poly(ethylene terephthalate)-tetraglycol)<sub>3</sub> phenanthroline (SiO<sub>2</sub>@Tb<sup>3+</sup>(PET&#8722;TEG)<sub>3</sub>Phen) was synthesized by mixing of inorganic SiO<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles with polymeric segments of PET&#8722;TEG, whereas PET&#8722;TEG was achieved through multi-step functionalization strategy. Tb<sup>3+</sup> ions and &#946;-diketonate ligand Phen were added in resulting material. The experimental results demonstrated that it was well blended with PET as a robust additive, and not only promoted the crystallinity, but also possessed excellent luminescence properties. An investigation of the mechanism revealed that the SiO<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles functioned as a crystallization promotor; the Tb<sup>3+</sup> acted as the fluorescent centre; and the PET&#8722;TEG segments played the role of linker and buffer, providing better compatibility of PET matrix with the inorganic component. This work demonstrated that hybrid polymers are appealing as multifunctional additives in the polymer processing and polymer luminescence field.
