Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A continuous column reactor packed with silica gel supported CuBr-HMTETA catalyst has been successfully developed for ATRP of MMA. The reactor had a good catalytic stability up to 100 h. The MMA conversion decreased with an increasing feeding flow rate. The polymerization kinetics was first order with respect to the monomer. The molecular weight increased linearly with conversion, demonstrating the living character. Possible flow back-mixing and polymer trapping in the pores of silica gel caused some broadening in the molecular weight distribution. This type of packed column reactor is believed to be a significant development for possible commercial exploitation of the ATRP process.

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.
