Correction: Ibar, J.P. Raising Two More Fundamental Questions Regarding the Classical Views on the Rheology of Polymer Melts. Polymers 2024, 16, 2042

There was an error in the original publication [1]. It contains a false Equation (8). There is the middle component [(b/f) ↔ (c,g,t)] on the right end side should be deleted. There should only be two bracket terms [(b/F) ↔ (c,g,t)]₁ ∩ [(b/F) ↔ (c,g,t)]₂ on the right end side.

A correction has been made to the equation in the Section 4.

$$\begin{array}{l}\left[\right(\mathrm{b}/\mathrm{F})\leftrightarrow (\mathrm{c},\mathrm{g},\mathrm{t}\left)\right]\hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\leftrightarrow \hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\left[\right(\mathrm{b}/\mathrm{F})\leftrightarrow (\mathrm{c},\mathrm{g},\mathrm{t}){]}_1\cap [(\mathrm{b}/\mathrm{F})\leftrightarrow (\mathrm{c},\mathrm{g},\mathrm{t}){]}_2\\ \mathrm{SINGLE} \mathrm{DUAL-PHASE}\hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\hspace{1em}\mathrm{CROSS-DUAL-PHASE}\end{array}$$

(8)

where b and F refer to an intermolecular bonding “conformation”, and (c,g,t) (i.e., cis, gauche, trans) refers to an “intra-chain conformation bonding” [7–9].

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
