Abstract
In this work, we showed how the functionalization of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) by nitric acid (HNO 3 ) and their predispersion into poly (butylene terephthalate) (PBT) improved the through‐plane electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of co‐continuous morphology polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/carbon black (CB)/graphite (GR)/MWCNT nanocomposites. First, when MWCNT were functionalized with HNO 3 then premixed with PBT, they showed no aggregations inside the PBT matrix due to their improved interfacial interactions and chemical compatibility with the PBT matrix. Then, when PBT/(HNO 3 ‐functionalized MWCNT) mixture was added in small quantities to (PET/PVDF)/(CB/GR) composites, it decreased significantly their through‐plane resistivity and enhanced their impact and flexural properties. Its synergistic effect also led to the best proton exchange membrane fuel cell bipolar plate prototypes (smoother surface, without any cracks).

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 it
