Influence of Polyethylene Terephthalate Powder on Hydration of Portland Cement.
Article in Polymers, 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
The management of plastic waste is a massive challenge and the recycling of plastics for newer applications is a potential solution. This study investigates the feasibility of using polyethylene terephthalate (PET) powder in cementitious composites. The changes in the strength and microstructure of Portland cement incorporating PET powder with different replacement ratios were systematically analyzed through the measurements of compressive strength, isothermal calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and Raman spectroscopy. In addition, the possible chemical changes of cement paste samples were studied upon exposure to different conditions, including deionized water, seawater, and simulated pore solution. Based on the test results and analysis, no apparent chemical changes were observed in the cement paste samples, regardless of the exposure conditions. In contrast, the PET powder incorporated into concrete exhibited remarkable changes, which may have occurred during the mixing process. The results also suggested that the maximum replacement ratio of PET powder should be less than 10% of the binder (by mass) to minimize its influence on cement hydration, due to the interaction between water and PET. The PET-containing samples showed the presence of calcium aluminate hydrates which were absent in the neat paste sample.
