The authors regret that affiliation a was incorrectly given in the original article. The correct affiliation is shown here.

In the sentence beginning “For instance, PF of the sample with χ = 0.5 wt% is 33.8…” incorrect units were given. The corrected sentence is as follows: For instance, PF of the sample with χ = 0.5 wt% is 33.8 μW cm⁻¹ K⁻² at 482 K, which is ∼33% larger than that of the BST matrix (25.5 μW cm⁻¹ K⁻²).

In the sentence beginning “For instance, as to the sample with χ = 0.5 wt%, κ decreases from 1.10…” incorrect units were given. The corrected sentence is as follows: For instance, as to the sample with χ = 0.5 wt%, κ decreases from 1.10 to 0.99 W m⁻¹ K⁻¹ at 482 K (a ∼10% decline).

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
