Abstract
Abstract The assignment of the 29 Si CP/MAS-NMR spectrum of naturally-occurring sepiolite clay was re-examined using 29 Si COSY and 1 H- 29 Si HETCOR pulse sequences. Each of the three main resonances at −92.1, −94.6 and −98.4 ppm has been attributed to one of the three pairs of equivalent Si nuclei in the basal plane, and the resonance at −85 ppm to Q 2 (Si-OH) Si nuclei. On the basis of the COSY experiment, the resonance at −92.1 ppm is unambiguously assigned to the intermediate, near-edge Si sites. The HETCOR experiment revealed that the resonance at −94.6 ppm cross-polarizes almost entirely from the Mg-OH protons, and therefore is assigned to the central Si position. The remaining resonance at −98.4 ppm correlates strongly to the protons of the structural water molecules and therefore is assigned to the edge Si sites. Nearly complete rehydration was achieved at room temperature by exposing sepiolite samples that had been partially dehydrated at 120°C to water vapor or to D 2 O vapor. The rehydration results support the 29 Si NMR peak assignments that were made on the basis of the COSY and HETCOR experiments. The 29 Si CP/MAS-NMR spectrum corresponding to the folded sepiolite structure in which approximately one half of the structural water has been removed by heating to 350°C is reported for the first time. The chemical shift values and relative intensities are significantly different compared to the resonances that are observed in the corresponding spectrum of the true sepiolite anhydride. These observations support the earlier claim that sepiolite heated to ∼350°C exists as a distinct phase to be differentiated from that of the completely dehydrated state.

Full frame distilled prediction
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
