Effect of Co‐Rotation and Counter‐Rotation Extrusion Processing on the Thermal and Mechanical Properties, and Morphology of Plasticized Soy Protein Isolate and Poly(butylene succinate) Blends
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Blends of plasticized soy protein isolate (PSPI) and poly(butylenes succinate) (PBS) were prepared in a 70:30 wt.‐% ratio via co‐rotation (CR) and counter‐rotation (CTR) twin‐screw extrusion. The novelty in this research suggests that CTR extrusion provides enhanced interfacial adhesion, tensile elongation and prolonged onset ( T onset ) and end ( T end ) thermal degradation temperatures. The average tensile strain at break showed to be ≈40% higher for PSPI‐CTR material and ≈55% higher for PBS:PSPI‐CTR (70:30) blends. Both T onset and T end for CTR processed PBS:PSPI(70:30) and PSPI were ≈10 °C greater than those of CR. These results suggest that the enhanced shear rate and radial motion associated with CTR allows for better destructurization and blending of PSPI within the PBS matrix, resulting in enhanced structural integrity due to the formation of possible amide and ester linkages. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) provides further support based on evidence of reduced voids on the surface of all CTR blends magnified image

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
