1. A process of making a preceramic polymer grafted nanoparticle comprising: combining a carbosilane monomer comprising at least one silane moiety and at least one vinyl moiety and/or a cyclic carbosilane monomer, with a core comprising a material selected from the group consisting of Hydrogen, Lithium, Beryllium, Boron, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Sodium, Magnesium, Aluminum, Silicon, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chlorine, Potassium, Calcium, Scandium, Titanium, Vanadium, Chromium, Manganese, Iron, Cobalt, Nickel, Copper, Zinc, Gallium, Germanium, Arsenic, Selenium, Bromine, Strontium, Yttrium, Zirconium, Niobium, Molybdenum, Technetium, Ruthenium, Rhodium, Palladium, Silver, Cadmium, Indium, Tin, Antimony, Tellurium, Iodine, Cesium, Barium, Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, Lutetium, Hafnium, Tantalum, Tungsten, Rhenium, Osmium, Iridium, Platinum, Gold, Mercury, Thallium, Lead, Bismuth, Polonium, Radium, Actinium, Thorium, Protactinium, Uranium, Neptunium, Plutonium, Americium, and mixtures thereof, said core having an outer surface, said outer surface being functionalized and allowing said core and said monomer to react for 24 hours to 72 hours at a temperature of from about 20° C. to 80° C., and at a pressure of from about 0.1 atm to about 100 atm.
