Abstract

The glass transition temperature (Tg) is a pivotal design parameter for polymer performance across diverse applications, yet its rapid prediction within expansive chemical spaces remains a challenge. We present a machine learning (ML) framework for the high-throughput prediction of Tg in binary copolymers, trained on experimental datasets encompassing both homopolymers and copolymers. We evaluate…
