Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Adding a polymer to silica aerogels increases the strength of reinforced silica aerogels compared with pristine silica aerogels.

    “Therefore, in comparison to pristine silica aerogels, this method increases the strength of reinforced silica aerogels [8].”
  • The aging process is a critical step to improve strength inside the gel network and secondary particles with siloxane bonds.

    “To improve the strength inside the gel network and secondary particles with the siloxane bonds, the ‘aging’ process is a critical step [8].”
  • Aging wet gels increases the strength of the resulting silica aerogel by causing silica to dissolve and reprecipitate at the exterior of interparticle necks, resulting in mechanically significant inorganic connectivity and increasing the modulus of elasticity by about two aspects.

    “The aging process of wet gels increases the strength of the resulting silica aerogel by causing silica to dissolve and repeated precipitation at the exterior of interparticle necks, resulting in mechanically significant inorganic connectivity. This procedure will result in an increase in the elasticity of modulus of about two aspects.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
