Text Correction
There was an error in the original publication [1]. A correction has been made to Section 2.2.5 to accurately reflect the instrumentation used. The morphology of the composite films was examined using an SEM (Carl ZEISS Sigma FE-SEM from Carl Zeiss AG, Oberkochen, Germany). The instrument was previously reported as JEOL JSM-6360. This correction does not affect the results or conclusions of the study.
In the abstract and conclusion, the water contact angle range was originally stated as 60.89° to 89.62° and has now been revised to 60.89° to 92.33°. There was a typographical inconsistency where CuONPs were mistakenly written as CuNOPs in some parts of the manuscript. This correction reflects an accurate representation of the experimental data and does not affect the overall interpretation or conclusions of the study.
Error in Figure
During the final review of our manuscript [1], we identified an error in Figures 1, 8 and 10, in which the x-axis of the UV–visible spectrum figure was mistakenly labelled as wavenumber instead of wavelength, and the image of POsCuONPs-3 and the Standard (0 h) panel, respectively, were inadvertently duplicated. The corrected versions of Figure 1, Figure 8 and Figure 10 are provided below.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
