Abstract
Correction for ‘3D-bioprinting approach to fabricate superhydrophobic epoxy/organophilic clay as an advanced anticorrosive coating with the synergistic effect of superhydrophobicity and gas barrier properties’ by Chi-Hao Chang et al., J. Mater. Chem. A, 2013, 1, 13869–13877.
The authors regret that incorrect microscopy images were presented in Fig. 6a and d, and Fig. 8a and b. The corrected figures are shown below.
 | ||
| Fig. 6 SEM images of the (a) CRS surface, (b) spin-coated epoxy on CRS, (c) spincoated FEC on CRS, (d) the natural leaf, (e) the negative template, and (f) the imprinted layers of SEC. | ||
 | ||
| Fig. 8 SEM images of (a) FEC-coated on CRS and (b) SEC-coated on CRS after testing the adhesion. | ||
Further peer review to support this correction notice identified that the replacement Fig. 8 provides less adequate evidence to support the related comments made in the discussion. The sample used in 2013 is no longer available and therefore repeat analysis is not possible in this case. Therefore, the comments relating to Fig. 8 in the text should be ignored. The overall conclusions for the paper remain valid.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
