Abstract
Ultramicrocellular PMMA foams made from the low temperature rubbery phase, obtained by saturating the polymer with CO 2 at 0°C and 34 atm, was subjected to a second expansion cycle by heating it rapidly to temperatures in the range 30 to 120°C. The blowing agent for the secondary expansion was either the residual CO 2 in the foam at about 19 wt% level or fresh CO 2 re-equilibrated at 0°C and 34 atm to a loading level of about 29 wt%. In the former case, the second expansion cycle led to lower foam densities whereas in the latter case it led to stretching and re-orientation of the cell walls with no significant gain in further foam density reduction or cell density increase.

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 it
