The Reinforcing Effect of Waste Polyester Fiber on Recycled Polyethylene.
Article in Polymers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 improve the performance and application value of recycled plastics, filling modification has been widely used in waste plastic reinforcement. In this study, recycled polyethylene (RPE) was reinforced via extrusion blending using waste polyester fiber (WPF) from a waste silk wadding quilt as a reinforcer. The effects of the amount of WPF on the mechanical properties, the thermal stability of RPE and the microstructure of the RPE/WPF composite were studied. The result shows that extrusion blending can evenly disperse WPF in RPE matrix and that WPF can clearly improve the tensile strength, flexural modulus, storage modulus and thermal stability of RPE. The tensile strength and flexural modulus almost achieved the maximum when the addition of WPF was 20 wt%. The storage modulus under this condition is also higher than that of other samples. This study provides a cheap and effective reinforcement method for waste plastics as well as a new idea for the reuse of WPF, which is of great significance to the reuse of waste and environmental protection. However, how to enhance the interface adhesion between WPF and RPE to further improve the enhancement effect needs further research.
