Abstract

3.1 Microstructure of the OYSnP In the article, “Unveiling high performance insulating properties of epoxy-oyster shell nanoparticles composites for high-voltage applications” [1], published in Volume 30, pages 80–85 of Journal of Materials Research and Technology, Figure 1 in section 3.1 of the paper had been erroneously placed by the authors. The correct Figure based on the actual nanoparticle used in our study is hereby shown for readers’ attention. In the TEM image of the OYSnp displayed in Figure 1 below, it is clearly seen that the particles have spherical and round structure. Evidence of surface defects such as agglomeration and segregation were not seen. This correction applies to the whole article. In Figure 8 in section 3.6.1, the authors had presented the Figure without error bars making it difficult for some readers to understand. To assist readers in confirming the scientific validity, the authors have shown Figure 8 with the error bars. In Figure 8, it should also be known that composite materials are not often the same as alloy materials. For example, defects such as blowholes can change the results of the impact test. The authors wish to make it clear that the impact testing machine is analogue with results being approximated to 1 decimal point before plotting the Figure 8. Low increment may be due to parallel error. These changes do not affect the results or conclusions of the study.[Figure presented] Fig. 1: TEM of the OYSnp.[Figure presented] Fig. 8: change in impact energy UV Aging time.
