Machine Learning-Based Quantification of Polymer Structure Property Relationships for Predictive Material Design
Abstract: Polymer structures exhibit complex, hierarchical arrangements that strongly influence macroscopic properties, yet consistent quantification remains challenging due to nonlinear interactions and limited unified modeling strategies. Existing approaches inadequately capture generalized structure–property mappings across diverse polymer systems. This research aims to establish a machine learning-based quantification model for polymer structure–property relationships to support predictive material design. A Polymer Structure Property Dataset of 5,000 polymer samples includes structural descriptors and experimentally measured …
