Abstract
The thermal stability of functionalized Vulcan XC72R powders and the chemical species liberated upon their heat treatment in air and nitrogen were investigated by a series of physicochemical techniques. First, Vulcan was modified by a “one pot” synthesis with 4-nitrophenyl, p -azobenzene, and benzene groups by spontaneous reaction with in situ generated aryl diazonium cations, from the corresponding amine, in aqueous solution. The presence of organic moieties at the carbon surface was demonstrated by elemental analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) which yielded a nitrogen content of 1.5 atom % and 3.0 atom %, respectively. The covalent bonding of the organic groups was indirectly evidenced by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), which revealed that a high temperature (e.g., above 200 °C) is needed to lose a significant weight of grafted groups. Thermogravimetric analysis-mass spectrometry (TGA-MS) and XPS data suggest that the 4-nitrophenyl grafted groups undergo the cleavage of the N−O bond of the nitro group that is followed by the liberation of NO. The liberated NO then reacted with the carbon support to generate pyrrolic and pyridinic type species, as identified by XPS from the lower binding energy components on the N 1s core level spectra.

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
