Nanocellulose-Graphene Derivative Composite Membranes: Recent Advances, Functional Mechanisms, and Water Purification Applications.
Review in Membranes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Nanocellulose-graphene derivative (NC-GD) composite membranes have attracted increasing attention as sustainable separation materials with high specific surface area, mechanical strength, and controllable interfacial chemistry. This review contextualizes the development of NC-GD composite membranes within advanced membrane technologies and summarizes recent progress in their structural design, interfacial mechanisms, and water purification applications. The synthesis and assembly of nanocellulose and graphene derivatives are analyzed, focusing on how surface functionalization regulates interfacial compatibility and transport pathways. Comparative evaluation of fabrication approaches-including vacuum filtration, layer-by-layer assembly, and solution casting-highlights their influence on structural uniformity and permeability. Key findings indicate that hydrogen bonding, electrostatic coupling, and π-π interactions govern the layer stability of composite membranes and the synergistic formation of nanochannels (by NC and GDs), thereby enabling efficient water permeation, selective separation, and fouling resistance. Overall, NC-GD membranes exhibit outstanding performance in heavy metal adsorption, dye removal, oil-water separation, and antibacterial treatment, representing a promising platform for next-generation sustainable water purification systems.
