Correction for ‘Synthesis of γ-alumina (Al2O3) nanoparticles and their potential for use as an adsorbent in the removal of methylene blue dye from industrial wastewater’ by Shafqat Ali et al., Nanoscale Adv., 2018, DOI: 10.1039/c8na00014j.
The corrections are as follows:
(1) On page 1, the sentence including “4.13 nm and the surface area is 112.9 m2 g−1” should instead read as “4.55 nm and the surface area is 120.7 m2 g−1”.
(2) On page 1, in the sentence including “490 to 2210 mg g−1” should instead read as “483 to 2190 mg g−1”.
(3) On page 3 (left column), the sentence including “16.00 m2 g−1” should instead read as “120.7 m2 g−1”, and “4.13 nm” should instead read as “4.55 nm”.
(4) On page 4 (left column), the sentence including “808 mg g−1” should instead read as “790 mg g−1”.
(5) Page 5 (right column), the sentence including “868 to 1000 mg g−1” should instead read as “849 to 1000 mg g−1”.
(6) Page 5 (right column), the sentence including “422, 431, 481 and 490 mg g−1” should instead read as “417, 425, 476 and 483 mg g−1”.
(7) Page 5 (right column), the sentence including “1812, 2061, 2164 and 2210 mg g−1” should instead read as “1800, 2043, 2110 and 2190 mg g−1”.
(8) Page 5 (left column), the sentence including “868 to 1000 mg g−1” should instead read as “849 to 1000 mg g−1”.
