Optimizing maleic anhydride content to enhance mechanical performance and thermal stability of recycled polyolefin blends.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
This study evaluated the effects of maleic anhydride (MA) coupling agent on the mechanical and thermal properties and long-term stability of post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics. The addition of MA coupling agent increased the tensile strength by 32.12%, enhancing the mechanical durability of the recycled plastic. Furthermore, the melt index (MI) increased by 366.23%, significantly improving processability. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results showed a significant improvement in thermal stability, and a lifetime prediction model estimated an extension of the material's life by 532.66% at 200 °C. These results demonstrate that MA coupling agent effectively suppresses long-term degradation at high temperatures. Therefore, MA coupling agents can simultaneously improve mechanical properties and recyclability and offer a potent solution for creating sustainable plastics within a circular economy.
