Surface Modification of Attapulgite by Grafting Cationic Polymers for Treating Dye Wastewaters.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
In this study, the cationic polymer poly-epichlorohydrin-dimethylamine was immobilized on natural attapulgite to improve the dye adsorption capacities. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, zeta potential analysis, and particle size analysis were used to determine the characteristics of modified attapulgite. Results showed that the poly-epichlorohydrin-dimethylamine had been successfully grafted onto the surface of attapulgite without altering its crystal structure. After cationic modification, the specific surface area of attapulgite obviously decreased, and its surface zeta potentials possessed positive values in the pH range from 3 to 11. The cation-modified attapulgite displayed high adsorption capacities for anionic dyes, and its maximum adsorption capacities were 237.4 mg/g for Reactive Black 5 and 228.3 mg/g for Reactive Red 239; this is corroborated by Langmuir's isotherm studies. It was demonstrated that the two reactive dyes could be 100% removed from effluents when cation-modified attapulgite was used in column operation modes. Its treatment capacities were more than three times larger than that of activated carbon. The regeneration study verified better utilization and stability of the fabricated adsorbent in column operation. This work has conclusively confirmed the potential of the new modified attapulgite for effectively treating dye wastewaters.
