Hybrid Nanofiller-Enhanced Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites (CFRP) for Lightning Strike Protection (LSP).
Article in ACS omega, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The aviation industry relies on lightweight carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP) for fuel efficiency, which necessitates lightning strike protection (LSP) and electromagnetic shielding due to their electrical insulating characteristics. Traditional metallic meshes used for LSP are heavy and corrosion-prone, prompting the exploration of alternatives. This research showcases CFRP nanocomposites with enhanced LSP properties through the incorporation of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). While the enhanced conductivity in the nanofilled epoxy matrix did not impact the overall conductivity of CFRP panels, a significant damage reduction was observed after simulated lightning strike tests. Similar approaches in the literature have also noted this discrepancy, but no attempts to reconcile it have been made. This work provides a framework to explain the damage reduction mechanism while accounting for the modest conductivity improvements in the nanoreinforced CFRPs. Additionally, a simple, nondestructive method to assess surface resin degradation after a lightning strike test is proposed, based on the fluorescence of diphenyl ketones. The discussion is supported by electrical conductivity measurements, damage pattern evaluation using the proposed UV-illumination method, ATR-FTIR, and scanning electron microscopy analysis pre- and postlightning strike simulation.
