Remarkable Thermal Conductivity of Epoxy Composites Filled with Boron Nitride and Cured under Pressure.
Article in Polymers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
This work demonstrates that the application of even moderate pressures during cure can result in a remarkable enhancement of the thermal conductivity of composites of epoxy and boron nitride (BN). Two systems have been used: epoxy-thiol and epoxy-diamine composites, filled with BN particles of different sizes and types: 2, 30 and 180 μm platelets and 120 μm agglomerates. Using measurements of density and thermal conductivity, samples cured under pressures of 175 kPa and 2 MPa are compared with the same compositions cured at ambient pressure. The thermal conductivity increases for all samples cured under pressure, but the mechanism responsible depends on the composite system: For epoxy-diamine composites, the increase results principally from a reduction in the void content; for the epoxy-thiol system with BN platelets, the increase results from an improved matrix-particle interface; for the epoxy-thiol system with BN agglomerates, which has a thermal conductivity greater than 10 W/mK at 44.7 vol.% filler content, the agglomerates are deformed to give a significantly increased area of contact. These results indicate that curing under pressure is an effective means of achieving high conductivity in epoxy-BN composites.
