Abstract

Correction for ‘An acid-free rechargeable battery based on PbSO4 and spinel LiMn2O4’ by Yu Liu et al., Chem. Commun., 2014, 50, 13714–13717.


After publication of this manuscript it was brought to our attention that the concept and testing of a PbSO4/LiMn2O4 cell in Li2SO4 (aq) electrolyte had previously been published in the PhD thesis written by Dr Julian Key (University of the Western Cape).1 The detailed results reported in this paper differ from those reported in the thesis. However, it is our regret that we did not discover this similar work and acknowledge it in our paper. We therefore wish to bring readers' attention to the work reported in this thesis.

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