Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study investigated the impact of foaming on the broadband dielectric properties of multi-walled carbon nanotube/polystyrene (MWCNT/PS) nanocomposites. Different carbon nanotube concentrations were prepared by blending of a 20 wt.% MWCNT/PS masterbatch and pure PS using a twin-screw extruder. A chemical blowing agent was used to foam the nanocomposites in a micro injection molding machine. Compression molding was applied to fabricate unfoamed nanocomposites for comparison purposes. Comparing the dielectric properties of unfoamed and foamed nanocomposites showed that foaming increased the percolation threshold, reduced DC and AC conductivities, widened the insulator–conductor transition window, and reduced the dissipation factor of the MWCNT/PS composites. These were attributed to deteriorated conductive network and inferior dispersion and distribution of MWCNTs coming from the presence of foam cells in the nanocomposites. The obtained results propose foaming as a promising technique to improve the dielectric properties of MWCNT/polymer composites.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
