Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been modified via a dc pulsed oxygen plasma for different treatment times. The modified surfaces were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), optical profilometer, zeta potential, and advancing contact angle measurements. The measured advancing contact angles of water decreased considerably as a function of discharge. Several oxygen-based functionalities (carbonyl, carboxyl, carbonate, etc.) were detected by XPS, while zeta potential measurements confirmed an increase in negative charge for the treated PMMA surface. Evaluating the correlation between the concentration of polar chemical species and zeta potential, we found that increase in surface hydrophilicity results from the coeffect due to incorporation of oxygen functional groups and creation of charge states. The electrical double layer (EDL) effect was also considered in contact angle interpretation by introducing an additional surface tension term into Young's equation. We also found that EDL contribution to the solid-liquid interfacial tension is negligible and can be safely ignored for the systems considered here.

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.
