The flow activation energies, E,, of some pure hydrocarbons, reported in Table IX, are not correct. They should be multiplied by In 10, i.e., 2.303. Besides, a few more data from the references cited in the paper have been included in the regression in order to arrive a t the flow activation energies given in the corrected version of Table IX below. The new figures are thus slightly different from the old figures multiplied by In 10. Table IX.
