Hydrogen-Doped Polymeric Carbon Monoxide at High Pressure
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The ability to control materials stability, bonding, and transformation by thermo-mechanical and chemical means is significant for development of high-energy-density extended solids. We report that doping hydrogen (∼10%) in carbon monoxide (CO) can greatly lower the polymerization pressure of CO and enhance the stability of recovered polymeric CO products at ambient conditions. Hydrogen-doped CO crystallizes into well-grown dendrites of β-CO-like phase at 3.2 GPa, which polymerizes to highly unsaturated black polymer (phase I) at ∼4.7 (5.8) GPa. Upon further compression, this highly colored polymer transforms into a translucent 3D network structure (phase II) at 6–7 (10–17) GPa and then a transparent 2D layer structure (phase III) at 20–30 (30–60) GPa. A similar series of transformations are also found in pure CO but at considerably higher transition pressures, as noted in parentheses. All polymeric phases are recoverable at ambient conditions, exhibiting an array of phase stability and novel properties such as chemically unstable phase I, highly luminescent phase II, and highly transparent layered phase III. The density of recovered products ranges from ∼2.3 g/cm 3 to 3.6 g/cm 3, depending on the pressure recovered. The recovered products are highly disordered but slowly decompose to crystalline solids of anhydrous polymeric oxalic acid while exhibiting interesting crystal morphologies such as nm-cobs, nm-lamellar layers, and μm-bales. The present first-principles MD simulations suggest that the polymerization occurs at 6 (or 10) GPa in H 2 -doped (or pure) CO. While not directly participating in the reaction, the role of H 2 molecules is to enhance the mobility of CO molecules leading to the polymerization.

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.
