Abstract

Retraction of ‘Mutual effect of Cs(I) and Sr(II) sorption on nano-talc investigated by EXAFS, modeling and theoretical calculations’ by Yubing Sun et al., Environ. Sci.: Nano, 2019, 6, 672–683.


The Royal Society of Chemistry, with the agreement of the named authors, hereby wholly retracts this Environmental Science: Nano article due to concerns with the reliability of the data in the published article.

The EXAFS data in Fig. 3 are unreliable given that the three spectra presented in Fig. 3B have been duplicated in the region R(A) > 5.1.

Given the significance of the concerns about the validity of the data, the findings presented in this paper are no longer reliable.
