Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A novel process is described for making integral multilayered polymers with the layers separated by discontinuous narrow gaps containing air and/or a blowing agent. The two step process involves first introducing a low degree of entanglement among some of the polymer chains and then breaking apart these entanglements using a blowing agent to give the discontinuous gaps that resemble elongated, narrow cells. The layer density can be controlled within a wide range, typically 10 to 2000 layers/mm, while the gap between the layers is < 100 nanometers. These layered materials, called nanolayered polymers or layered foams, are mechanically strong and have excellent thermal and electrical, and, possibly, sound insulation properties. The nanolayering process is complimentary to the process described recently (Handa and Zhang, Cellular Polymers 19, (2000) 1) to make microlayered polymers.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
