1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 electric field orientation method effectively promotes the orientation and arrangement of BN nanosheets, forming a thermal conduction network and enhancing the thermal conductivity of the composite material. In this study, microsecond pulsed electric field and direct current electric field were applied to induce the orientation and arrangement of BN nanosheets and improve the thermal conductivity of epoxy resin composites. Under a microsecond pulsed electric field of 50 Hz, 1.5 μs, and 8 kV/mm, the average orientation angle of BN nanosheets increased by 147.7%, and the thermal conductivity of the composite reached 0.352 W/(m·K), which is 1.84 times that of pure epoxy resin. In contrast, under a DC electric field of 70 V/mm, the average orientation angle of BN nanosheets increased by only 57.9%, while the thermal conductivity of the composite reached 0.364 W/(m·K), 1.91 times that of pure epoxy resin. The results indicate that the microsecond pulsed electric field primarily enhances the local orientation of the fillers to improve thermal conductivity, whereas the DC electric field mainly enhances the global arrangement of the fillers to achieve a similar effect. Additionally, thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry were conducted to evaluate the thermal properties of the composites. The results demonstrate that after BN nanosheets orientation and arrangement within the epoxy resin induced by both microsecond pulsed and DC electric fields, the composites exhibited a higher glass transition temperature and improved thermal stability. This study systematically explores the effects of microsecond pulsed and DC electric fields on filler orientation and arrangement, providing valuable insights for the fabrication of electric field-oriented composites.
