Figure Legend

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in the legends for Figures 2 and 3. The references were not cited in the Figure legends. The correct legend appears below.
  • Figure 2. FTIR spectrum (a) Ni-BTC MOF and its 1–5 wt % rGO composites (b) GO and (c) rGO. Adapted with permission from Ref. [34], Copyright 2019, Springer Nature.
  • Figure 3. Raman IR analysis (a) GO, Adapted with permission from Ref. [33], Copyright 2019, Elsevier. (b) rGO.

Missing Citation

In the original publication, the citation of reference [33] was missing in Section 2, Results and Discussion, Paragraph 7, and should read:
The Raman spectrum of GO illustrated in Figure 3a gives an idea of the existent structural defects of the graphene layer. Two characteristics bands that appear in the GO spectrum are D and G bands. The D band displayed at 1352 cm−1 is caused by the stretching vibration of aromatic C=C, while the G band visible at the 1600 cm−1 position develops because of the transformation of the sp2 hybridized carbon of the ring system to sp3 hybridized carbon, as well as owing to available oxygen-bearing functional groups on the surface of GO [33].
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
