Novel composite based on silicone rubber and a nano mixture of SnO
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Recently, there has been a surge of interest in the application of radiation-shielding materials. One promising research avenue involves using free-lead metal oxides/polymer composites, which have been studied for their radiation shielding and characterization properties. This study reinforced the dimethylpolysiloxane (silicone rubber) composites with micro- and nano-sized particles of tin oxide, cadmium oxide, and bismuth oxide as additive materials. The composites were tested with 20 and 50 weight fractions, and their attenuation coefficients were measured using a NaI(TI) detector at gamma-ray energies ranging from 59.54 to 1408.01 keV. Also, the thermal and mechanical properties of the composites were observed and compared with those of free silicone rubber. The results showed that the 50% nano metal oxide/SR composites exhibited better thermal stability and attenuation properties than the other composites, also possessing unique attributes such as lightweight composition and exceptional flexibility. Consequently, this composite material holds immense potential for safeguarding vital organs, including the eyes and gonads, during radiological diagnosis or treatment procedures. Its exceptional ability to absorb a significant portion of incident rays makes it an invaluable asset in the field of radiation protection.
