Abstract
Correction for ‘Modified chemical synthesis of MnS nanoclusters on nickel foam for high performance all-solid-state asymmetric supercapacitors’ by Vijay S. Kumbhar et al., RSC Adv., 2017, 7, 16![[thin space (1/6-em)]](https://www.rsc.org/images/entities/char_2009.gif)
348–16359.
In the original manuscript, an incorrect caption was given for parts (a) and (b) of Fig. 4; the revised caption should read: “Fig. 4(a) Cyclic voltammograms, (b) variation in Cs of the MnS@NF electrode at different scan rates from 5 to 100 mV s−1…”
In Section 3.2, Structure and surface morphology of MnS, an incorrect value was given for the interplanar distance of the (101) lattice plane of γ-MnS. The correct value is 0.30 nm, and the corrected sentence should read: “The interplanar distances of 0.30, 0.23, and 0.15 nm measured from the lattice fringes in the TEM images (Fig. 3(b)) correspond to the (101), (102), and (202) lattice planes of γ-MnS”.
In Section 3.4, Supercapacitive performance of MnS@NF//rGO@NF ASC, an incorrect value for the capacitive retention of the MnS@NF//rGO@NF ASC was given. The correct value is 86.5%, and the corrected sentence should read: “A capacitive retention of 86.5% was observed after 2000 cycles, which is better than those of the other MnS-based ASCs”.
The reference numbers given in Fig. 16 were incorrect. The corrected figure is shown below.

In Section 3.4, Supercapacitive performance of MnS@NF//rGO@NF ASC, in one instance ref. 39 was incorrectly cited rather than ref. 51. The corrected sentence is as below: “These values are significantly better than that of many other reported MnS-based ASCs”.34,37,51
In the reference section, incorrect author details were given for ref. 18. The corrected reference is given as ref. 1 below.
Additionally, a revised Electronic Supporting Information document was uploaded for the manuscript to correct several variable names which were missing the ' symbol.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
