Effects of pressure drop rate and CO<sub>2</sub> content on the foaming behavior of newly developed high-melt-strength polypropylene in continuous extrusion
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report systematic studies on the foamability of our novel high-melt-strength long-chain branched polypropylene under supercritical CO 2 . Continuous foaming experiments were conducted using a tandem extrusion system and a set of filamentary dies with similar pressure drops but different pressure drop rates. The foam expansion was controlled by varying the temperature at the die exit. Under identical CO 2 loadings, the expansion ratio plotted as a function of die temperature exhibited similar shapes across multiple pressure drop rates. However, the shape of the curve varied across different amounts of CO 2 , under which the highest achievable expansion ratio occurred at a lower die temperature with increasing CO 2 content. The cell density displayed strong dependence on both the pressure drop rate and the amount of dissolved CO 2 . The effect of the latter became more apparent at lower pressure drop rates. The average cell size decreased with increasing CO 2 loading but generally showed weak dependence on pressure drop rate except at the highest value.

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.
