Rheology and Structure of Molten, Olefin Multiblock Copolymers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Several samples of a recently developed olefin multiblock copolymer were studied by means of rheology, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The synthesis involves a chain shuttling agent (CSA) that switches the growing chain between two catalysts, one that favors the incorporation of an α-olefin comonomer and one that suppresses incorporation. The data were used to determine the effect of octene comonomer content and CSA level on rheological behavior and the occurrence of mesophase separation transition (MST) in the melt. To distinguish between crystallization and MST, we made calorimetry scans and measured the density and rheological properties over a range of temperatures. Small angle X-ray scattering analysis of a sample that had undergone planar extensional flow revealed strong alignment of lamellar mesodomains, which maintained their alignment after annealing. This result confirmed the hypothesis based on rheological evidence that a lamellar mesophase is present in the melt at temperatures well above the melting point.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
