Reducing Infrared Radiation and Solid Thermal Conductivity by Incorporating Varying Amounts of GnP into Microcellular PMMA.
Article in Polymers, 2025. 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
Although microcellular foams are potential thermal insulators, their low density and small pore size allow infrared radiation to pass through, increasing the effective thermal conductivity. To address this drawback, graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) have previously been added to polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) samples as infrared blockers, enhancing insulation by reducing the radiative component of heat transfer. In this work, the effect of the content of GnPs is studied. Cellular PMMA samples with GnP contents ranging from 0.5 to 10 weight total percentage (wt. %) and pore sizes between 2 and 5 microns were tested. Thermal conductivity measurements showed that GnP additions from 0.5 to 5 wt. % significantly decrease the radiative term, achieving a 33% reduction compared to pure PMMA and reaching thermal conductivity values of 38 mW m
