20. Any deviations from the predicted form are revealed as deviations from a straight line in Fig. 2 and hence clearly identifiable. Since previous workers [e.g., M. A. Golub and N. R. Lerner, J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 32, 5215 (1986); R. Casalini et al., Chem. Phys. Lett. 258, 470 (1996); G. Gallone et al., Polym. Int. 50, 545 (2001)] have successfully interpreted their data for epoxy-amine systems in terms of an empirical law formally equivalent to that of the present analysis, yet such law has been questioned by others [ D. A. Wasylyshyn and G. P. Johari, J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym. Phys. 35, 437 (1997); E. Tombari et al., J. Chem. Phys. 113, 6957 (2000)], verification of this issue is of importance in itself.
