Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Grafting of polystyrene from narrow disperse polymer particles by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization was investigated. Poly(DVB80) particles prepared by precipitation polymerization were used as starting particles. Their residual surface vinyl groups were hydrochlorinated to form chloroethylbenzene initiating sites for subsequent ATRP of styrene using CuBr/2bipy as catalyst system. Polystyrene was found grafted not only from the particle surfaces but also from within a thin shell layer, leading to particles size increases from 2.96 to 3.07 μm. The surface layer of polystyrene improved colloidal stability and facilitated formation of colloidal arrays. Block copolymers of poly(styrene- b -4-methylstyrene) were grown from the particles, and the living nature of surface-initiated ATRP is discussed.

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.
