Abstract
The correction is introduced to the definition of the disjoining pressure of wedge-shaped film formulated in the authors’ previous publication. In refined definition, the nondiagonal pattern of pressure tensor even in cylindrical coordinates is taken into account and the disjoining pressure is introduced by analogy with the case of the transition zone of wetting meniscus. The alternative procedure of the definition of the disjoining pressure through the diagonal pressure tensor in the middle of the wedge is also considered.
