1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 paper describes a newly developed testing method for determination of the adhesivity of a film sintered from thermoplastic powder. This method is based on the modified EN 15337 standard. Application of this method enables an effective development of thermoplastic composites with enhanced adhesion between reinforcement and matrix and/or high-quality joints between plastics and dissimilar materials. The proposed method was successfully tested on a series of polyethylene powders treated in the oxygen atmosphere for 0-1200 s. Adhesion to metal and glass substrates in dependence on treatment conditions is described along with powder wettability and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. The results show an increase in adhesion to metal by 580% and to glass by 1670% for the longest treatment time, compared to a nontreated powder. Sintering of treated powders revealed a strong influence of treatment time on the melting process. The XPS analysis confirmed the formation of new oxygen groups (C-O, C=O, O-C=O). The method reveals a specific behavior of powders based on treatment conditions, which is crucial for the optimization of plasma treatment for the improved adhesion, applicability of polymer powders, and a development of composite materials.
