Text Correction
There was an error in the original publication [1]. The description of the binder addition to the CNTs was unclear and CNT was not mentioned for the mixing step with IPA.
A correction has been made to the first paragraph of Section 2.2.
“The CNT and COOH-CNT, respectively, were mixed with 5% wt. PTFE binder solution using IPA and left to dry under ambient conditions. The dried slurry-like mixture was placed on a pasta roller to compress and form 100–200 μm free-standing films [8].”
Error in Figure Caption
In the original publication, there was a mistake in the caption of Figure 1b as published. The unit eV/Å3 was used instead of eV Å−3, which was originally inconsistent with the paper formatting. The corrected caption appears below.
“Figure 1. (a) Schematic of side (left) and top (right) views of the structural arrangement of luminol adsorbed on COOH-graphene in the interstitial configuration, (b) 3D difference charge density plot of luminol adsorbed on COOH-graphene corresponding to the ±0.2 eV Å−3 isosurface. Blue and red wire mesh surfaces correspond to regions of electron accumulation and depletion, respectively. (c) Most significant differences in Bader ionic charges following adsorption and chemical modification of luminol. A positive value indicates an increase in positive ionic charge, and vice versa, in units of fundamental charge (e).”
Update to the Journal Notice
The journal’s Editorial Office and Editorial Board are updating the Journal Notice linked to the article referenced below [1]. Following concerns raised about the integrity of the peer-review, the Editorial Office has conducted a post-publication peer-review of this article. This process included the recruitment of two new independent reviewers and was supervised by the original Academic Editor to ensure full compliance with MDPI’s Editorial Process (https://www.mdpi.com/editorial_process).
As a result of this process, the Academic Editor and the authors have agreed to publish a correction and update the following aspect(s) of this publication:
- Reviewer report 2 was removed, and two new reports were added to the peer review record (https://www.mdpi.com/2624-8549/4/4/103/review_report).
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
Correction Statement
This article has been republished with a minor correction, the information about the post publication review and its outcome were missing. This change does not affect the scientific content of the article.
