Abstract
Abstract This work investigates the humidity absorption process in the polyester/glass fiber composite materials containing fillers and low profile additives. These composite materials were exposed to both distilled and sea water at different temperatures. The moisture diffusivity and the moisture equilibrium reached by these composites were determined using the gravimetric test method and their humidity distribution profile across the thickness direction was characterized using the microtome technique. The obtained results indicate that the distilled water diffuses in all composites much more rapidly than the sea water, particularly at high immersion temperatures. However, the opposite is observed at low immersion temperature (5°C), since at this temperature the distilled water is almost in its icy state. For high immersion temperatures, a mass loss of the aged specimen in the sea water was observed 2 months after the first immersion. Such behavior was not observed during the immersion in the distilled water. Moreover, it is observed that the water absorption is higher in the composite materials containing low profile additives. This behavior is explained in terms of microvoids formation promoted by low profile additives. The microtome technique reveals clearly that the humidity profile across the thickness of the aged specimen follows a parabolic trend with a maximum at the outside surface of that specimen and a minimum at its center. These experimental results were found to confirm the theory. POLYM. COMPOS., 28: 355–364, 2007. © 2007 Society of Plastics Engineers

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 it
