Revealing the impact of temperature in battery electrolytes via wavelength-resolved neutron imaging.
Article in Science advances, 2023. 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
Understanding the limitations of electrolyte mixtures under extreme conditions is key to ensure reliable and safe battery performance. Among advanced characterization methods, time-of-flight neutron imaging (ToF-NI) is unique for its capability to map physicochemical changes of H-containing materials inside metallic casings and battery packs. The technique, however, requires long exposures in pulsed sources, which limits its applicability, particularly for analysis at low temperatures. To overcome these limitations, we use high-duty cycle ToF-NI at a continuous source, demonstrating its capability to expose physical and chemical changes of electrolytes due to variations in the overall molecular diffusion. The strategy described in this work reduces the exposure required and provides the baseline to study the thermal stability of electrolyte mixtures, from the proofing of state-of-the-art electrolyte mixtures up to their performance in batteries. This analysis and methodology apply to hydrogenous materials well beyond electrolytes for a wide range of applications.
