Abstract
Expression of concern for ‘One-pot synthesis of O-doped BN nanosheets as a capacitive deionization electrode for efficient removal of heavy metal ions from water’ by Ming Ming Chen et al., J. Mater. Chem. A, 2017, 5, 17029–17039.
The following article ‘One-pot synthesis of O-doped BN nanosheets as a capacitive deionization electrode for efficient removal of heavy metal ions from water’ by Ming Ming Chen, Da Wei, Wei Chu, Tao Wang and Dong Ge Tong has been published in Journal of Materials Chemistry A. The article reports the one-pot synthesis of O-doped BN nanosheets and their application as an electrode material for capacitive deionization, for the removal of heavy metal ions from water.
Journal of Materials Chemistry A is publishing this expression of concern in order to alert our readers that we are presently unable to confirm the accuracy of the data reported in Fig. S4 of the ESI.
An investigation is underway, and this notice will be updated when a final outcome is reached.
