Corrigendum to ‘Chain flexibility and glass transition temperatures of poly(n-alkyl (meth)acrylate)s: Implications of tacticity and chain dynamics’ [polymer 213 (2021) 123207] (Polymer (2021) 213, (S0032386120310326), (10.1016/j.polymer.2020.123207))

The authors regret < that. 1. The missing of university on affiliations a and b.2. The missing affiliations on the corresponding author details on the first page3. The wrong number of citation on line 10 of the left column of page 2, which is 18 instead of 174. The wrong number of citation on line 30 of the left column of page 2, which is 20 instead of 195. ¹H reference on section 2.5. of page 2 was transferred by mistake during publication as [1] H reference6. The wrong number of citation on line 26 of the left column of page 4, which is 17 instead of 187. The statement on reason of Tanaka plot lost its linearity when the molecular weight is too high is inaccurate. (Page 4, right column, line 41). The reason is the large excluded volume.8. Figure 4 on the left column of the page 5 has a wrong citation number for Jenkins and Porter's work, which should be 17 instead of 18,9. The wrong citation number on line 1 of the right column of page 5, which is 18 instead of 17.10. The wrong citation number on line 5 of the right column of page 5, which is 17 instead of 18.11. The wrong citation number on line 16 of the right column of page 5, which is 17 instead of 18.12. The content in Table 10 (row 1 and column 3) was missing, which should be K_θ × 10⁴ (dLg^−3/2mol^1/2)13. Unnecessary word “both” in the caption of Figure 614. Unnecessary word “both” in the caption of Figure 715. Reference number of citation 17 and 18 should be reversed (page 7, section of references).16.

The wrong citation number (line 10, left column, page 2) In the case of poly(n-alkyl acrylate)s, there have been far fewer experimental studies on their conformational characteristics, with only a single report of unperturbed dimensions of poly(methyl acrylate) prepared free radically without report on its tacticity [18].4. The wrong citation number (line 30, left column, page 2) Branching was detected at higher molecular weights in each of the poly(n-alkyl acrylate)s, as expected, but not in the poly(n-alkyl methacrylate)s, as a downturn in the linear Mark-Houwink plots at higher molecular weights [20].5. [1] H reference (section 2.5. characterization. Page 2, right column) ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra were obtained on a Varian VNMRS 500 NMR spectrometer at 25 °C in CDCl₃ (7.27 ppm ¹H reference and 77.23 ppm ¹³C reference) unless otherwise noted.6. The wrong citation number (line 26, left column, page 4) The K and α values we obtain for PMMA as a function of M_w are also in excellent accord with values reported by Jenkins and Porter [17], with the exception of our sample having isotactic diads of 50.5% where α is higher and K is smaller.7. The inaccurate statement (Page 4, right column, line 41). When the molecular weight is too low, the molecular weight measured from the light scattering detector is less accurate, and when the molecular weight is too high linearity in the Tanaka plot is lost due to the large excluded volume.8. The wrong citation number in Fig. 4. [Figure presented] 9. The wrong citation number (line 1, right column, page 5) Likewise, the values of C_∞ determined in this work for poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA), poly(ethyl acrylate), poly(n-butyl acrylate), and poly(n-hexyl acrylate), of 8.1, 9.1, 10.1, and 11.6, respectively, are in good agreement (within 10%) with values of 7.7, 9.7, 9.7, and 12.5, respectively, derived from published solution properties data on these materials [18, 30, 31].10. The wrong citation number (line 5, right column, page 5) Our values of C_∞ for PMMAs of varying tacticities are compared with those reported by Jenkins and Porter [17] in Fig. 4.11. The wrong citation number (line 16, right column, page 5) Vacatello and Flory [33] had noted the wide scatter in the earlier data as well as the lack of precise information of the stereochemical composition of the polymers studied. Our data, combined with those of Jenkins and Porter [17], clearly show that such a plot is not concave but is linear at least over the range of stereochemistries studied and thus compatible with RIS models.12. Missing content of Table 11 (row 1 and column 3) (dLg^−3/2mol^1/2) should be K^θ × 10⁴ (dLg^−3/2mol^1/2)13. Unnecessary word “both” in the caption of Figure 6 The caption of Figure 6 should be “Correlation between T_g and solution characteristics for poly(n-alkyl methacrylate)s.”14. Unnecessary word “both” in the caption of Figure 7 The caption of Figure 6 should be “Correlation between T_g and solution characteristics for poly(n-alkyl acrylate)s.”15. Reference number of citation 17 and 18 should be reversed. The correct reference number is listed here: [17] R. Jenkins, R.S. Porter, Measurement of the unperturbed dimensions of stereoregular poly(methyl methacrylate), Polymer 23 (1982) 105–111. [18] H. Matsuda, K. Yamano, H. Inagaki, Styrene-methyl acrylate copolymers and acrylate homopolymers in solution, J. Polym. Sci. Part A- 2 (7) (1969) 609–633.16. Missing of supporting information.
