Versions Notes
The journal retracts the article titled “Functionalization of Silica with Triazine Hydrazide to Improve Corrosion Protection and Interfacial Adhesion Properties of Epoxy Coating and Steel Substrate” [1], cited above.
Following the publication, concerns were brought to the attention of the Editorial Office regarding the scientific accuracy of the data presented in the published paper [1].
Adhering to our standard procedure, an investigation was conducted by the Editorial Office and the Editorial Board, which confirmed inconsistencies within the sub-images presented in Figure 8 [1]. Despite access to the raw material, the Editorial Board could not verify the validity or integrity of the presented data. As a result, the Editorial Board has lost confidence in the integrity of the findings and decided to retract this publication [1], as per MDPI’s retraction policy (https://www.mdpi.com/ethics#_bookmark30 (accessed on 13 March 2025)).
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of the Coatings journal.
The authors did not agree to this retraction.
