Energy-Efficient Insulating Geopolymer Foams with the Addition of Phase Change Materials.
Article in ACS omega, 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
This study assessed the impact of the addition of phase change materials (PCMs) under the trade name Micronal 28S on the properties of the manufactured geopolymer foams. Micronal 28S is used as a functional component in foams (insulation materials), foamed building materials, and materials for temperature regulation to improve thermal comfort and indoor climate. The melting point of Micronal 28S is 28 ± 2 °C, and the heat of fusion is ∼140 J/g. As part of the research, geopolymer mixtures containing PCMs in the form of a slurry were prepared in shares of 0, 5, 10, and 15 wt %. Geopolymers were produced based on fly ash. The foaming process was carried out using hydrogen peroxide (H
