Abstract
The authors have plagiarized parts of the text of articles that had already appeared in the Journal of Surfactants and Detergents 15 (2012) 73-81. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11743-011-1277-0 and the Journal of Applied Polymer Science 100 (2006) 2956-2962. http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/app.22777. Also the article duplicates parts of papers that had appeared in the Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering 31 (2014) 1281-1287. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11814-014-0042-2 and “Synthesis and Reactivity in Inorganic Metal-Organic and Nano-Metal Chemistry” 44 (2014) 514-522. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/15533174.2013.778880. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that their work is original and has not appeared in a publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents an abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.
