Sustainable Functional Polymer Composites: Bio-Based Systems with Tailored Properties for Civil Engineering Applications-A Review.
Review in Polymers, 2026. 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
Conventional epoxy polymers and their composites are increasingly challenged by environmental concerns, high manufacturing costs, and limited recyclability, necessitating the exploration of sustainable alternatives. Many research groups have sought to develop alternate polymers from various renewable resources, such as lignin, polyphenols, natural resins, saccharides, and plant oils. This new type of polymer has led to the emergence of bio-based polymers, which are often used with different reinforcements as bio-based composites. In this review, the synthesis of different bio-epoxy resins is discussed in detail along with their chemical structures. Subsequently, the enhancements in the properties of these bio-composites with the addition of different nanomaterials such as carbonaceous nanofillers (carbon nanotubes, graphene nanoplatelets, graphene oxide, etc.), cellulose-based nanomaterials, inorganic nano-silica (spherical and mesoporous), and nano-clay is explained. Lastly, the properties of these bio-composites and their applications in civil engineering are highlighted. This review has provided a detailed overview of the developments in bio-composites that can be used as a guide for the development of a new class of bio-composites using other alternate resources.
