The authors wish to make the following correction to this paper [1]:
The microstructure of the AA1100 base metal (Figure 8b) was shown for the wrong sample. This was caused by a wrong micrograph being included in the assembly of images from a similar aluminium base metal sample, but of different grade (6xxx).
We have reverted to the AA1100 weld sample, repolished and re-etched, and retaken the image. We have taken the opportunity to replace the original Figure 8 by repeating the metallography test. Hence, the following correction needs to be made to Figure 8.
1. Correction—Old Version

2. Correction—New Version
The old Figure 8 needs to be replaced with the following:
Figure 8.
Microstructure of the grain distribution in the cross section of the AA1100 FSW weld (processed at 1120 rpm and 250 mm/min); (a) general view of the cross section, (b) the base metal, and (c) the stirring zone (SZ), at higher magnification.
Figure 8.
Microstructure of the grain distribution in the cross section of the AA1100 FSW weld (processed at 1120 rpm and 250 mm/min); (a) general view of the cross section, (b) the base metal, and (c) the stirring zone (SZ), at higher magnification.
The purpose of Figure 8 was to show the changes in grain morphology and size across the weld section. We have taken this opportunity to provide a better quality image.
The change is limited to the replacement of Figure 8 and edits to the caption.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
