Abstract
A series of novel, amphiphilic block copolymers comprising of sulfonated poly([vinylidene difluoride - co -hexafluoropropylene] - b -styrene) [P(VDF - co -HFP) - b -SPS] were synthesized. The number-average molecular weights of the fluorous and polystyrene segments were 17 900 and 8100 g/mol, respectively. Sulfonation of the polystyrene segment to different extents provided a series of polymers which were cast into films to yield proton exchange membranes with varying ion exchange capacity (IEC). Proton conductivity of the membranes increased significantly when the IEC was increased from 0.5 to 1.2 mmol/g. For 0.9−1.2 mmol/g IEC membranes, the conductivity was similar to Nafion 117, significantly higher than random copolymers of polystyrene and sulfonated polystyrene, and twice that of nonfluorous block copolymer membranes based on sulfonated poly(styrene - b -[ethylene- co -butylene] - b -styrene) (S-SEBS) and sulfonated hydrogenated poly(butadiene - b -styrene) (S-HPBS) copolymers. TEM revealed a disruption in ordered morphology with increasing degree of sulfonation. Morphological structures of membranes having 0.6−1.2 mmol/g IEC comprised of interconnected networks of ion channels, each of 8−15 nm width.

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
