Superhydrophobic Polypropylene Functionalized with Nanoparticles for Efficient Fast Static and Dynamic Separation of Spilled Oil from Water.
Article in Global challenges (Hoboken, NJ), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Frequent oil spills not only threaten the ecosystem, but they are also a waste of a valuable source of energy. There is an urgent need to develop materials that can readily remove spilled oil from water bodies and also have the capacity to collect it for energy applications. Herein, a superhydrophobic fiber of functionalized polypropylene is engineered with the help of palmitic acid interaction with incorporated copper oxide nanoparticles. The successful development of functionalized polypropylene is confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The scanning electron microscopy images reveal that the surface roughness of the polypropylene is enhanced after functionalization. The optimized functionalized polypropylene displays an ultrahydrophobic surface with a water contact angle of 162.42°. The functionalized polyprolyene displays good absorption capacity. It has the capacity to take 30 to 40 times its own weight in oils and nonpolar organic solvents, which makes it useful for small spills. With a flux of 11 204 Lm
