Mechanical and thermal anisotropy for uniaxially and biaxially drawn PET
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Sheets of two molding grades of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with weight average molecular weight of 57,000 and 52,000 were drawn uniaxially or biaxially to ratios of up to 3 in a compression mold at 200°C. Tensile modulus measurements were done for axial and transverse strain. Thermal conductivity measurements were done with a transient‐state surface probe for thermal conductivity in the normal‐to‐the surface direction (Kn), as well as the axial (Ka) and transverse (Kt) directions in the plane of the sheet. Values are presented as normalized by the tensile modulus (Mo) or the normal conductivity (Kno), respectively, of undrawn isotropic specimens. For the uniaxial experiments, both M/Mo and Ka/Kno were linearly related to draw ratio. A regression analysis on results for both grades of PET for Ka/Kno in terms of M/Mo gave Y = 0.804*X + 0.286; std. err. of Y est. equal to 0.17. Kn/Kno decreased slightly. This non‐intrusive conductivity measurement provides a convenient means for monitoring the development of increased modulus in hot‐forging processes. Results on biaxially oriented specimens showed lesser modulus increases with draw ratio, consistent with orientation distribution in a plane, rather than in a single direction. Thermal conductivity (Ka/Kno as well as Kt/Kno), however, increased to a greater degree than for the case of uniaxial draw for the higher molecular weight material, suggesting the possibility of tilting of crystalline aggregates in the deformation process.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
