It has come to the authors’ attention that the TGA curves of the chitosan (a) and HTACC (b) in Figure 6 were misassigned and are now corrected. This error did not affect the analysis or interpretation of the results in any way. The authors sincerely apologize to the readers for this error.
TGA and DTG curves of chitosan (a) and HTACC (b).
Corrected discussion reg. original article p. 611 (the corrected parts are highlighted in bold)
Both chitosan and HTACC could be divided into two weight loss stages. Stage I (50 °C to about 177°C) was a dehydration process, the mass loss was associated with the water evaporation. In stage II (177°C to about 330 °C) the most mass was lost, mainly caused by the thermal degradation of the chitosan and the HTACC, including dehydration of the saccharide rings, depolymerization, and decomposition of the side chain (Feng and Xia 2011). In this stage, the HTACC lost mass faster than the chitosan, indicating that the HTACC’s thermal stability was reduced. Meanwhile, DTG curves show maximum rate of the chitosan’s weight loss (approximately 265°C) was higher than the HTACC’s (approximately 202 °C).
