73. Because of the presence of some lateral groups, this number is closer to 3.9 in both cases. This small correction does not affect the results.

75. PEP are 0.29 and 0.20, respectively, and a difference of 9 K is obtained for the effective glass transitions. In the temperature range studied in this work, the corresponding Vogel-Fulcher curves are rather similar to those shown in Figure 15.
