Abstract This research presents a Physics-Embedded Artificial Intelligence (AI) Framework for Predictive Polymer Thermodynamics, integrating machine learning models with fundamental thermodynamic equations to generate accurate, real-time predictions of polymer behavior across diverse temperature and pressure conditions. The system combines Graph Neural Networks, Physics-Informed Neural Networks, and ensemble predictive techniques with embedded constraints such as heat capacity derivatives and Gibbs free energy relationships, ensuring scientific consistency and preventing non-physical outputs. A fully interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) was developed to support user-driven simulations, database management, explainability visualization, and uncertainty quantification. Comprehensive evaluations demonstrate that the physics-embedded AI model outperforms traditional thermodynamic methods in accuracy, stability, and computational efficiency. The predictive engine delivers smooth thermodynamic curves, low error rates, and reliable uncertainty bounds, while maintaining robustness under extreme and boundary conditions. The visualization and interaction modules enable intuitive exploration of thermodynamic trends through dynamic plots, tables, history logs, and feature importance analytics. The system contributes significantly to polymer science by accelerating computational workflows, improving interpretability, and reducing reliance on resource-intensive laboratory and simulation procedures. Industrial applications include polymer formulation, process optimization, and materials design, while academic and educational users benefit from its clarity, interactivity, and reproducibility. Despite limitations related to dataset availability, computational training costs, and interpretability complexity, the framework establishes a powerful foundation for future advances in AI-driven thermodynamic modeling. The findings highlight the potential of hybrid physics–AI approaches to transform material analysis and support next-generation digital tools for polymer engineering.
