Nanoconfinement Induced Direct Formation of Form I and III Crystals inside in Situ Formed Poly(butene-1) Nanofibrils
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We show that under relevant processing conditions, isotactic poly(butene-1) (iPB-1) directly crystallizes into the thermodynamically stable form I and III from the melt state when it is confined in nanocylinder shape domains. The iPB-1 nanofibers with an average diameter of about 200 nm confined in an incompatible polyethylene (PE) matrix show the kinetically favored form II in addition to form I. However, only form I and III are present when the average size of nanofibers is further reduced to about 60 nm after localization of organoclay nanoparticles at the interface of the iPB-1 nanofibers and PE matrix. Even though the materials were brought to temperatures higher than the melting temperature of iPB-1, the formation of unstable form II is completely suppressed by the nanoconfinement of the iPB-1 phase. It is believed that the nanoconfinement reduces the mobility of iPB-1 chains and consequently alters the kinetics of form II crystallization. The localization of organoclay at the interface completely further suppresses the formation of form II crystal by enhancing the confinement effect.

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.
