Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT Nitroxide‐mediated radical polymerization (NMP) of the bulky methacryloisobutyl‐polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS‐MA) is successfully achieved after optimizing reaction conditions such as selection of controlling comonomer, comonomer feed molar ratio, and temperature (10 mol % styrene (S) comonomer at 110 °C using the commercially available BlocBuilder as the NMP initiator). The P(POSS‐MA‐ co ‐S) with a molecular weight of ~8000 g/mol and dispersity Ð –1.2 is afforded under the optimized reaction conditions. The chain‐end fidelity is verified by chain extension experiments with N‐ acryloyl morpholine (ACM) via NMP that produces well‐defined amphiphilic hybrid P(POSS‐MA‐ co ‐S)‐ b ‐P(ACM) x block copolymers, where the subscript “ x ” represents the degree of polymerization of (ACM) block (182 &lt; x &lt; 695). The size exclusion chromatography (SEC) of the as‐synthesized samples reveals the presence of some dead P(POSS‐MA‐ co ‐S) chains that could be removed by a simple purification step. Kinetic investigations reveal a first‐order kinetics for the polymerization of ACM using P(POSS‐MA‐ co ‐S) as the macroinitiator under NMP conditions. The kinetic and SEC data confirms the controlled nature of the NMP of ACM. Being amphiphilic, the formed P(POSS‐MA‐ co ‐S)‐ b ‐P(ACM) x block copolymers self‐assembled in aqueous solution as revealed by the fluorescence spectroscopy experiments with pyrene as the probe for determination of the critical micelle concentration and dynamic light scattering studies. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
