Ageing of inverse vulcanised polymers.
Article in RSC applied 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
Inverse vulcanised polymers are an emerging class of materials with a broad range of applications from energy storage to fertiliser systems. As these materials are still subject of research, scaling to real-life applications is just underway. One major factor for these materials to be fit for industrial use is their ageing behaviour under environmental influences such as temperature, sunlight, moisture and pH or biological attack. Since ageing is rarely discussed in literature, we herein investigate the ageing behaviour of common inverse vulcanised polymers under real-life and simulated environmental influences. The results show strong structure-properties relationships depending on the comonomers used for the polymerisation. Aliphatic non-functional monomers produce rigid polymers with high resistance towards environmental influences, whereas bio-derived and functional monomers deliver more flexible materials that are prone to degradation by oxidation and hydrolysis. This study provides groundwork for future research into the design of sulfur polymers that require environmental stability or controlled degradation for their individual application.
