Table 3.
The average, absolute error in the Tg values predicted by equation (1) for the three polymer classes found in Figure 1 at k=50%.
| Polymer class | Polymers | Set size | k mina | ΔTav: Average Tg prediction error (K) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | All polycarbonates and polyarylates | 100 | 7b | 6.4 |
| II | Poly(DTE-co-DT-co-PEG carbonate)s | 13 | 7 | 5.3 |
| III | Poly(I2DTE-co-I2DT-co-PEG carbonate)s | 19 | 7 | 3.7 |
The minimum size of the construction set (in nr of X,Y pairs) necessary to obtain the best Tg prediction (lowest ΔTav) in that class
No asymptotic behavior, arbitrarily chosen value of k
