Abstract
Correction for ‘Enhanced uptake of glyoxal at the acidic nanoparticle interface: implications for secondary organic aerosol formation’ by Qiuju Shi et al., Environ. Sci.: Nano, 2020, 7, 1126–1135, DOI: 10.1039/D0EN00016G.
There is an error in Fig. 6 and therefore the graphical abstract, which incorporates Fig. 6, also includes this error. The error does not affect the results in this section. The corrected figures appear below.
 | ||
| Fig. 6 The potential energy surface of the hydration reaction of GL in the neutral and acidic systems. The black line represents the direct hydration reaction of GL (RGL+H2O). The red and blue lines represent the indirect hydration reaction of COMGL–H2O with H2O and SA (RCOM+H2O and RCOM+SA), respectively. The unit of the rate constant is M−1 s−1. | ||
Correspondingly, in Section 3.3, on page 1131, the following sentence should be included in the third sentence of the third paragraph: “Herein, the discussed ΔG‡ value of RCOM+H2O/RCOM+SA is defined as the difference between the energies of TSCOM+H2O/TSCOM+SA and COMGL–H2O”.
Additionally, the second sentence in the fourth paragraph should be “Our calculated ΔG‡ value of RGL+H2O agrees with the previous theoretical study (37.0 kcal mol−1)62 which obtained the solvent energies based on the optimized gas-phase geometry”.
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
