<p>A process for producing a (meth)acrylic ester which comprises feeding (meth)acrylic acid and an alcohol to a reactor, wherein a polymerization inhibitor is dissolved in the reaction mixture and the reaction is conducted while keeping the reaction mixture containing the polymerization inhibitor dissolved therein in contact with a member present in the gas-phase part of the reactor. Thus, the (meth)acrylic acid and the (meth)acrylic ester are prevented from polymerizing on the member present in the gas-phase part of the reactor, and a continuous operation can be conducted over long.</p> |
