Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Maleic anhydride (MAH) copolymers have a wide range of applications in various fields. However, the difficulty in obtaining high-molecular-weight ( M w ) copolymers through polymerization often limits their potential for application expansion. In this paper, diols were chosen as chain extenders to increase the M w of MAH copolymers through esterification reactions between anhydride and alcohol, achieving the goal of “chain extension”. As the reaction progressed, the double-end esterification content (DEC) increased and the M w showed exponential growth accompanied by an increase in gel content. The effects of various reaction parameters, including the temperature, reaction time, types and amounts of diols, polymer concentration, and M w of raw polymer, on the M w and gel content of the product were investigated systematically. Furthermore, this method can effectively increase the M w of various mixed olefin–MAH copolymers. The experimental results demonstrated that the M w of raw polymers could be increased by up to 70 times (from 18.0 to 1270.8 kg/mol), thereby broadening the polymers’ potential applications.

Not 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.
