COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR INHIBITING POLYMERIZATION AND POLYMER GROWTH

摘要

A method for inhibiting the premature polymerization and the polymer growth of ethylenically unsaturated monomers is disclosed wherein the method comprises adding to said monomers an effective amount of at least one hydrogen donor or electron acceptor. In a preferred embodiment, the hydrogen donor or electron acceptor is used in combination with a stable nitroxyl free radical.
