Abstract
Regioselective copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) onto cellulose was achieved by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using a regioselectively modified 6- O-bromoisobutyryl-2,3-di- O-methyl cellulose macroinitiator. Varying the ratio of NIPAM to macroinitiator to ligand to transition metal in a Cu(I)Br/ N, N, N', N'', N'''-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) catalyst system affected graft yield and degree of polymerization. ATRP proceeded to completion without any trace of the macroinitiator, and a degree of polymerization (DP) of polyNIPAM up to 46.3 was obtained. Increasing the DP of the NIPAM component increased both the thermal decomposition temperature and the glass transition temperature of the copolymer. The grafting of NIPAM also affected the solubility properties of the methylcellulose. The 6- O-polyNIPAM-2,3-di- O-methyl cellulose formed a stable suspension in water at room temperature and underwent a hydrophillic-to-hydrophobic transition and copolymer precipitation when the temperature was raised above 30 degrees C.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
