Crystallization Morphology Regulation on Enhancing Heat Resistance of Polylactic Acid.
Article in Polymers, 2020. 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
To expand the use of polylactic acid (PLA) in high-temperature environments, crystallization morphology regulation was studied to enhance the heat resistance of PLA. PLA crystallinity was controlled using heat treatment and nucleating agent (zinc phenylphosphonate, brand TMC). The heat deflection temperatures of PLAs with same crystallinities considerably varied using different treatments. The crystallization morphology of PLA (4032D) and PLA/TMC composites was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and polarized optical microscopy. XRD test results show that TMC can improve the crystallization rate and heat treatment can enhance the crystallinity and thickness of PLA, suggesting that the crystallization morphology improved after heat treatment. Nucleating agents can increase the crystallinity of PLA but cannot improve its crystallization morphology. The findings indicate that at the same crystallinity, PLAs exhibit improved crystallization morphology and high heat resistance; these results can provide guidance for improving the heat resistance of PLAs and facilitate the design of new nucleating agents.
