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.
[ ( b / F ) ( c , g , t ) ] [ ( b / F ) ( c , g , t ) ] 1 [ ( b / F ) ( c , g , t ) ] 2 SINGLE   DUAL-PHASE CROSS-DUAL-PHASE
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.
