Ag-CuO/epoxy hybrid nanocomposites as anti-corrosive coating and self-cleaning on copper substrate.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. 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
This study aims to prepare Ag-CuO nanoparticles and assess their efficiency in protecting the copper substrate. The prepared Ag-CuO nanoparticle was characterized using, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope/energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM/EDX), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The anticorrosion performance of the epoxy coatings containing various weight percentages of Ag-CuO nanoparticles was evaluated in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The results showed that corrosion potential shifted from - 0.211 V for uncoated copper to - 0.120 V for 5.0 wt% Ag-CuO/epoxy hybrid nanocomposite. Electrochemical measurements indicated that the coating 5.0 wt% coating exhibited excellent inhibiting properties with an efficiency of 99.9%. Wettability and mechanical properties were measured for both uncoated and coated copper substrates. The contact angle for 5.0 wt% coating is equal to 104° enhancing the hydrophobic character of the surface. The study clearly establishes that the hybrid composite has a significant potential for protecting the copper substrate.
