Theory predicts a fragile-to-strong (FS) dynamic crossover temperature Tx in supercooled liquids but, contrary to what is reported in ref. 1, Tx must be >Tg (2), where Tg is the glass transition temperature. Ref. 4 of ref. 1 hypothesizes that a parabolic form is valid in a range To > T > Tx, where To is defined as an onset temperature that marks the crossover from normal liquid behavior to supercooled liquid behavior. A second paper by the same authors (ref. 5 of ref. 1) proposes the range of the hypothesized parabolic behavior can be extended to cover T < T …
