Machine Learning Models for Predicting Polymer Solubility in Solvents across Concentrations and Temperatures.
Article in The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2024. 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
Artificial intelligence and machine learning have become essential tools in predicting material properties to aid in the accelerated design of new materials. Polymer solubility, critical for new formulations and solution processing, is one such property. However, current models are limited by inadequate experimental data sets that cannot capture the complexity and detail for many features contributing to polymer solubility. Here, we provide a data set for polymer solution behavior based on Crystal16 turbidity measurements that includes high quality percent transmission data for polymer solutions for a variety of polymers, solvents, concentrations and temperatures. We use this data set to train a model that predicts the experimental transmission data at many temperatures and multiple concentrations. From this, we are able to classify the polymer/solvent pairs into three solubility categories providing a level of granularity to predictions beyond prior binary classification models considering only solvent/nonsolvent classes. The inclusion of multiple concentrations, temperatures and partially soluble data expands solubility prediction capability beyond prior work into predictions more attractive for use by formulators and process designers working with industrial polymer solutions.
