Abstract
Correction for ‘Aging and degradation behaviour of poly(lactic acid) composites in alcoholic and acidic food simulants’ by Andrei Moldovan et al., RSC Adv., 2026, 16, 20946–20959, https://doi.org/10.1039/D6RA01374K.
The authors regret two errors introduced into the manuscript.
(1) Firstly, the first sentence in the section titled ‘DSC analysis’ is incorrect. It should read “The samples (Fig. 1) were immersed for six months in food simulants (10% ethanol, 3% acetic acid, and 20% ethanol) and then analyzed by DSC to evaluate changes in thermal behavior (Fig. 11).”
(2) Secondly, the wrong images were incorrectly used in Fig. 10. The correct Fig. 10 is as shown here.
