Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Polymer chains of PMMA were grown from nano titania ( n ‐TiO 2 ) by the reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer polymerization process. The mechanism and kinetics of MMA polymerization from both solution and “grafted from” n ‐TiO 2 were studied. The RAFT agent, 4‐cyano‐4‐(dodecylsulfanylthiocarbonyl) sulfanyl pentanoic acid, with an available carboxyl group was used to anchor onto the n ‐TiO 2 surface, with the SC(SC 12 H 25 ) moiety used for subsequent RAFT polymerization of MMA to form n ‐TiO 2 /PMMA nanocomposites. The functionalization of n ‐TiO 2 was determined by FTIR, XPS, partitioning studies, and thermal analysis. The livingness of the polymerization was verified using NMR and GPC, while the dispersion of the inorganic filler in the polymer was studied using electron microscopy, FTIR, and thermal analysis. The monomer conversion and molecular weight kinetics were explored for the living RAFT polymerization, both in solution and grafted from n ‐TiO 2 , with first‐order kinetics being observed in both cases. Increased graft density on n ‐TiO 2 led to a lower rate of polymerization. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 3926–3937, 2008

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.
