By Kacim Hadjadj, Lakhdar Hachani, Ahmed Mechraoui, Mohamed El-Amine Slimani, Mounir Sakmeche. AIMS Materials Science, 2020, 7(1): 116-129. doi: 10.3934/matersci.2020.1.116

We would like to illustrate the following correction to our published article ^[1], consequent to inaccurate information in the relative errors and appreciation section due to authors’ error (Part of Experimental data). Correct declarations are provided below:

1. Author and authors’ affiliation have been updated.

We have added the first author Mohamed Filali, because when we got this problem (We had a suspicion that the experimental device was set with a bad parameters), he confirmed all the results, from reformatting and confirming the results from his lab.

Mohamed Filali¹, Kacim Hadjadj^{2, 3,} *, Lakhdar Hachani², Ahmed Mechraoui⁴, Mohamed El-Amine Slimani^5, * and Mounir Sakmeche³

2. Microcrystalline steel powder has been updated.

Galvanized steel–Thermal conductivity, K = 0.095 ± 0.004 W/(m·K).

Type A2 steel–Thermal conductivity, K = 0.216 ± 0.003 W/(m·K).

ASTMA A36 steel–Thermal conductivity, K = 0.231 ± 0.011 W/(m·K).
