Functionalisation Effects on Mechanical, Electrical and Thermal Properties of 3D-Printed MWCNT/ABS Nanocomposites.
Article in Polymers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
While fused filament fabrication (FFF) has gained widespread popularity in additive manufacturing, its prevalent limitation in mechanical properties has prompted researchers to explore innovative solutions, with the creation of nanocomposites emerging as a promising solution. In this study, the effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the material properties and morphology of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)-based nanocomposites at various MWCNT concentrations of 0.1-1.5% is investigated. A 0.5% MWCNT addition was found to be the optimal content for mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties for FFF-printed specimens printed at longitudinal and transverse build orientations with profound improvement compared to pure ABS. Morphological analysis confirms the significant influence of air voids, low interlayer bonding and the agglomeration of additives on the properties of FFF-printed parts. Then, functionalisation methods are developed in this study for the effective modification of nanoadditives, and their influences on mechanical, electrical and thermal properties of FFF-printed nanocomposite parts are investigated. Both the covalent and non-covalent methods of functionalisation result in a uniform dispersion of nanoadditives with a positive impact on the material properties of those parts, especially for those printed at transverse build orientations.
