Mechanical and heat deflection properties of PVC/PMMA/montmorillonite composites
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Composites based on PVC were compounded with 5% of montmorillonite and 10% of PMMA. Two types of reinforcement were studied, which included a purified sodium montmorillonite and a montmorillonite organically modified with an alkylammonium chloride. The composites were compounded with a Gelimat type thermokinetic mixer and were ejected at a maximum temperature of 180°C. The organically modified montmorillonite discolored the PVC, result which was interpreted as a sign of chemical degradation caused by the alkylammonium modifier. The composite made with 5% of purified montmorillonite and 10 of % PMMA displayed the best overall properties. The most important improvement was obtained on flexural strain at break (0.097–0.175 mm/mm) and maximum flexural strength (62–76 MPa). The HDT increased by up to 8°C. Dynamic mechanical analysis showed that 10% of PMMA in PVC moved the tan δ peak to temperatures 5–6°C higher. The PMMA was completely miscible in PVC and played an important role in the montmorillonite dispersion, as observed by XRD and SEM analysis. It also contributed to the overall increase in properties of PVC/PMMA/montmorillonite composites. J. VINYL ADDIT. TECHNOL., 13:91–97, 2007. © 2007 Society of Plastics Engineers.

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.
