Versions Notes
The journal retracts the article titled “Multi-Functional Cardanol Triazine Schiff Base Polyimine Additives for Self-Healing and Super-Hydrophobic Epoxy of Steel Coating” [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, the Editorial Office and Editorial Board conducted an investigation that confirmed inconsistencies within the data presented in Figures 1, 4, 6 and 9. Despite multiple attempts, the authors did not respond to requests for clarification regarding these concerns. As a result, the Editorial Board has lost confidence in the reliability of the reported findings and has decided to retract this publication [1], in line with MDPI’s retraction policy.
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of the Coatings journal.
The authors have been informed of this retraction but did not provide a comment on this decision.
