Engineering investigation for the size effect of graphene oxide derived from graphene nanoplatelets in polyurethane composites
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract In this study, commercial polyurethane (PU) and graphene nanoplatelets (GnP) and their derivative graphene oxide (GO) were used to fabricate PU composites. The size effect of fillers on mechanical properties and anti‐corrosion performance of as‐prepared composites was thoroughly investigated. It was found that GO was more uniformly dispersed in the PU matrix than GnP due to its compatibility with PU. Furthermore, GO led to the higher mechanical properties and anti‐corrosion performance than PU/GnP composites, and the properties were strongly dependant on the size of the GO. Specifically, incorporating large sized GO (GO‐M25) in 0.5 wt% indicated the highest average synergetic tensile modulus up to 53% from the neat PU and the lowest corrosion rate of 0.001 MPY (1 MPY = 0.547 g · m −2 · d −1 ). This phenomenon was attributed to the fact that the larger size of GO is not only uniformly dispersed within the PU matrix but also enables interaction between PU and GO. Conversely, PU composites incorporated with the small sized GO (GO‐C750) did not show elastic behaviour from 0.1 to 0.5 wt% of the filler. This is due to the fact that the high surface area and hydrophilic functionalities of GO‐C750 resulted in hard‐segment content reduction in PU. This research can help in the design of a PU coating that is physically improved and that has a superior anti‐corrosive capacity, particularly for pipelines in the oil‐sands transportation industry.

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.
