Abstract
Retraction of ‘Influence of aqueous sulfide on speciation of U(VI) adsorbed to nanomagnetite’ by Yubing Sun et al., Environ. Sci.: Nano, 2018, 5, 1981–1989.
The Royal Society of Chemistry, with the agreement of the named authors, hereby wholly retracts this Environmental Science: Nano article due to concerns with the reliability of the data in the published article.
Repeating fragments can be observed in three of the XRD spectra in Fig. 2B (pink, blue and black spectra), which indicates that they have been manipulated.
Given the significance of the concerns about the validity of the data, the findings presented in this paper are no longer reliable.
