Synthetic
rubber polymers are macromolecules designed for a wide area of applications
ranging from car tires and sealings to cables and adhesives. Due to complexity
of their chemical and physical structure, the precise measurement of the
polymer properties is essential for manufacturing high-performance rubbers.
Moreover, the tracking and understanding of the effect of these properties on
the mixing process and the properties of the final compound is of utmost
importance for the development of material models. Such optimized models can
accelerate the digitalization of polymer production, which is one of the goals
of the InSuKa project. Optimized digital models enable predictive optimization
strategies for process parameter and recipe adjustments. To support this, we
developed the DIGIT RUBBER ontology, which formalizes empirical knowledge of
polymer formulations and processing. DIGIT RUBBER, created within the Platform
Material Digital (PMD) initiative, focuses on polymer mixing and extrusion and
is aligned with the PMDCo3, a mid-level domain ontology for materials science
and engineering. PMD also provides graph patterns, reusable structural
templates for representing knowledge in Web Ontology Language (OWL) based
graphs. The project involves building a pipeline for the consistent
transformation of raw polymer datasets (and their compounds) into knowledge
graphs. In this work, which is embedded in the project InSuKa, we apply the
measurement graph patterns using LinkML to transform raw polymer and compound
datasets stored in relational databases into OWL knowledge graphs. The pipeline
also has a graphical user interface that enables any domain expert to query the
knowledge graph - PolymerNexus, without a background knowledge of the structure of the graph or
the SPARQL query language. The resulting polymer knowledge graphs provide a
structured, interoperable representation of data for effective analysis of
empirical knowledge inherent in the polymer datasets and supporting the
development of optimized material models.
