Corrigendum to: Spongy Gels by a Top-Down Approach from Polymer Fibrous Sponges (Angewandte Chemie International Edition, (2017), 56, 12, (3285-3288), 10.1002/anie.201611787)

The description of Figure 1 of this Communication contains a typographical error with regard to the mass of the sponges after uptake of mineral oil. On page 3285, right column, the sentence starting above Figure 1 should read “With a liquid of a density of 1 g cm⁻³, 30 mg of polymer spongy scaffold (Figure 1 a) keeps 3 g of liquid in a shape that is 100-times the mass of the spongy scaffold.” instead of “With a liquid of a density of 1 g cm⁻³, 30 mg of polymer spongy scaffold (Figure 1 a) keeps 30 g of liquid in a shape that is 1000-times the mass of the spongy scaffold.” The caption for Figure 1 should read “Sponge made of electrospun fibers with mass of 0.03 g (a) and the sponge after uptake of 3 g of mineral oil (b).” instead of “Sponge made of electrospun fibers with mass of 0.03 g (a) and the sponge after uptake of 30 g of mineral oil (b).” These mistakes do not affect the concept or any other information provided in other parts. In addition, the results and conclusions of the Communication also remain valid. The authors sincerely apologize for these mistakes.
