Nanodiamond embedded polyaniline/polyvinylidene fluoride nanocomposites as microfiltration membranes for removal of industrial pollution.
Article in RSC advances, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Membrane fouling remains a challenge to the membrane technology. Herein, we report the fabrication of composite membranes of polyaniline/polyvinylidene fluoride (PANI/PVDF) blended with nanodiamond (ND) with improved antifouling properties. The designed membranes were characterized by XRD, FTIR and SEM techniques. Characterization analysis revealed that addition of ND has maintained the structural integrity and porosity of composite membranes. The membrane permeation and antifouling performances were tested for hydrophilicity, porosity, pure water flux, shrinkage ratio, salt rejection of zinc acetate and copper acetate, and their fouling recovery ratio (FRR) measurements. A high solvent content ratio of 0.55 and a low shrinkage ratio of <12% due to enhanced hydrophilicity and porosity of the composite membrane with fouling-recovery of membranes to 88% were achieved. Separation of copper and zinc ions from aqueous solution was achieved. These findings imply that ND-based PANI/PVDF composite membranes can effectively serve as microfiltration membranes in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment.
