In Table 1, there is a mistake about the % of Al and Co for NM 402, apprently due to a line shift of the data. No Cobalt is used in the synthesis of these MWCNT and it is confirmed by JRC analysis (https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/sites/default/files/mwcnt-online.pdf) which reported Co < 2 ppm. NM 402 containted only aluminum (3.16%) and iron (2.39%).
