Abstract

Correction for ‘Synergistic effects of hydrophobicity and gas barrier properties on the anticorrosion property of PMMA nanocomposite coatings embedded with graphene nanosheets’ by Kung-Chin Chang et al., Polym. Chem., 2014, 5, 1049–1056.


Following publication of the original article, the following mistakes were found:

(1) In section 2.2, the temperature in the sentence “The GO powder was put into the furnace at 1000 °C for 30 s for thermal exfoliation.” is incorrect. The correct temperature is 300 °C.

(2) In section 2.2, the content percentage values in the phrase “the contents of C–O, C[double bond, length as m-dash]O and –COO in carboxyl–GNSs were 11, 5, and 4%, respectively.” are incorrect. The correct content percentage values are 33, 15, and 7%.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
