Biomimetic self-reinforcing recyclable biomass-derived inherently-safe sustainable materials.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Biomass-derived recyclable materials that can replace petrochemical-derived plastics are highly sought for a sustainable future. However, incumbent materials often face performance deterioration challenges owing to the aging issues after use in the environment. Here, we present a self-reinforcing, recyclable, unprecedented polyester material derived entirely from biomass lignin and soybeans, mimicking the self-reinforcement mechanism of biological systems. Our material leverages a [2 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction mediated by aromatic π-conjugated vinylidene structures, enhancing performance under ultraviolet light, hygrothermal conditions, and external electric fields. Specifically, the tensile strength, elongation at break, and anti-ultraviolet efficiency can be enhanced to 103 MPa, 560%, and 73%, respectively, far surpassing those of known biomass-derived materials and engineered plastics. Additionally, the material demonstrates outstanding insulativity, barrier properties, flame retardancy, solvent resistance, and recyclability, meeting the demands of sustainable green new energy material. Our strategy for this self-reinforcing biomass recyclable material provides rich possibilities for designing next-generation sustainable materials.
