Twin polymerization is a new synthesis concept, which enables the formation of two different macromolecular structures from organic-inorganic hybrid materials in one single process step. To gain insights into formation processes we implement a first-principles-based ReaxFF reactive force field for C/H/O/Si for the initial electrophilic substitution of an aromatic system [1]. In this presentation we first give a brief introduction to the details of twin polymerization and afterward we present our progress [2] in establishing an appropriate reactive force field parametrization to model all partial reaction steps and the subsequent polymerization at least for small system sizes.
