Study on the effect of acid fracturing fluid on pore structure of middle to high rank coal.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. 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
Acid fracturing fluids can effectively improve the microporous structure of coal, thereby enhancing the permeability of coal seam and the efficiency of gas drainage. To explore the effects of acid fracturing fluids on the pore structure modification of coal samples from different coal ranks, hydrochloric acid-based acid fracturing fluids were prepared and used to soak four types of medium to high-rank coal in an experiment. High-pressure mercury intrusion and liquid nitrogen adsorption techniques results demonstrated that the acid fracturing fluid can effectively alter the pore structure of coal. However, the modification effect does not exhibit a linear relationship with coal rank. The porosity of fat coal and coking coal increased by approximately 30%, while the surface area of gas coal and fat coal increased by about 20%. The new micropores produced by the acid fracturing fluid will increase the roughness of the fracture surface, but the widening of the original fracture will reduce the tortuosity of the fracture. Only the fractal dimension of lean coal has a significant change, about 6%. Overall, acid fracturing fluid has the best effect on gas coal and coking coal. The research results provide a reference for the selection and application of acid fracturing fluid in coal seam hydraulic fracturing.
