AI Application Potential and Prospects in Materials Science: a Focus on Polymers
>>> Abstract:
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into materials science is profoundly transforming polymer discovery, manufacturing and quality control. This study explores the potential of AI-based approaches in three key areas: (1) prediction of polymer properties using advanced models such as PolymerGNN and PolyBERT, (2) optimization of industrial processes via reinforcement learning to improve energy efficiency and material quality, and (3) automatic defect detection using computer vision models such as YOLOv8 and Faster R-CNN. Experimental results show significant improvements in terms of prediction accuracy, energy consumption reduction (10-25%) and defect identification efficiency. Despite these advances, challenges remain, notably data quality, model interpretability and integration into industrial processes. This study highlights the transformative impact of AI on polymer science, and provides an analysis of the performance of applied models.
