Abstract

Correction for ‘Direct visualization of the ouzo zone through aggregation-induced dye emission for the synthesis of highly monodispersed polymeric nanoparticles’ by Eshu Middha et al., Mater. Chem. Front., 2019, 3, 1375–1384.


The authors regret that the ternary phase diagrams shown in Fig. 5 and 7 (in the manuscript) were constructed following analysis 8 hours after mixing solute, solvent and water, instead of immediately after mixing. This results in a shift of the Non-ouzo zone and Binodal line. The Binodal line shifts to a higher solvent fraction with time due to the Ostwald ripening effect. The updated Ouzo diagrams have been added to the ESI file as Fig. S13 and S14 in a new section named ‘17. Shift in Non-Ouzo zone and Binodal line with time’. The revised ESI file can be accessed via the original article.

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