How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Inclusion of the salt KAcO into hemicellulose based polymeric films results in improved film formation and mechanical properties. Considering this beneficial effect of KAcO, its separation during the hemicellulose isolation process is not always a necessity for film production.
