    • (Cambridge University Press, Cambridge) The surface tension formulas (14) of ref. 12 and (2) of ref. 13 are missing a factor of 6 on the left hand side. This has no impact on any results D. Duque, in his work on block copolymer micelles, describes a different SCFT approach that could be used to calculate the free energy of a bubble that doesn't require changing the system volume. 26 This grand canonical method would hold the exterior bulk volume fractions constant at the experimental conditions. This would give a free energy barrier for a completely isolated bubble and would be used to predict very early time nucleation rates. We feel our method is a more realistic approach for the case of polymer foams where a majority of nucleation events may take place in an environment of other bubbles. It should also be more adaptable to heterogenous nucleation
