Reactive compatibilization of poly(styrene‐<i>ran</i>‐acrylonitrile)/poly(ethylene) blends through the acid–epoxy reaction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Two families of acid functional styrene/acrylonitrile copolymers (SAN) for application as dispersed phase barrier materials in poly(ethylene) (PE) were studied. One type is SAN made by nitroxide mediated polymerization (NMP), which was subsequently chain extended with a styrene/ tert ‐butyl acrylate (S/ t BA) mixture to provide a block copolymer (number average molecular weight M n = 36.6 kg mol −1 and dispersity Đ = 1.34, after which the tert ‐butyl protecting groups were converted to acid groups (SAN‐ b ‐S/AA). The other acid functional SAN is made by conventional radical terpolymerization (SAN‐AA). SAN‐AA and SAN‐ b ‐S/AA were each melt blended with PE grafted with epoxy functional glycidyl methacrylate (PE‐GMA) at 160 °C in a twin screw extruder (70:30 wt % PE‐GMA:SAN co/terpolymer). The non‐reactive PE‐ g ‐GMA/SAN blend had a volume to surface area diameter = 3.0 μm while the reactive blends (via epoxy/acid coupling) (PE‐GMA/SAN‐ b ‐SAA and PE‐GMA/SAN‐AA) had = 1.7 μm and 1.1 μm, respectively. After thermal annealing, the non‐reactive blend coarsened dramatically while the reactive blends showed little signs of coarsening, suggesting that the acid/epoxy coupling was effective for morphological stability. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
