Abstract

Correction for ‘A tough, smart elastomeric bio-based hyperbranched polyurethane nanocomposite’ by Suman Thakur et al., New J. Chem., 2015, 39, 2146–2154, https://doi.org/10.1039/C4NJ01989J.

The authors regret there was an error in the figure caption for Fig. 2 in the original version of this article. The correct Fig. 2 and associated caption is shown below:

Fig. 2 XRD patterns of (a) HPU–IO–RGO2, (b) HPU–IO–RGO1, (c) HPU–IO–RGO0.5 and (d) HPU [XRD pattern of HPU is reproduced from our earlier work for better understanding¹].

Additionally, the authors regret there was an error in the sentence “After incorporation of the nanohybrid, a slight shifting of the PCL peaks towards a higher angle was observed, which may be due to formation of a more dense structure compared to the pristine HPU” on page 2149 in the original article. The corrected sentence is shown below:

“After incorporation of the nanohybrid, a slight shifting of the PCL peaks towards a lower angle was observed, which may be due to the formation of a less dense structure compared to the pristine HPU.”

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