Among the class of finite integral commutative residuated chains (ICRCs), we identify those algebras which can be obtained as a nuclear retraction of a conuclear contraction of a totally ordered Abelian {ell}-group. We call the ICRCs satisfying this condition regular. Then we discuss the structure of finite regular ICRCs. Finally, we prove that the class of regular members generate a strictly smaller variety than the variety generated by ICRCs.

Keywords: Residuated lattice; ordered residuated monoid; nucleus; conucleus,Abelian lattice-ordered group; free commutative monoid
