Abstract

The present invention provides an improvement in methods for preparing and processing ethylenically unsaturated aromatic monomer. The improvement comprises employing 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid or a derivative or isomer thereof as a process inhibitor. The process inhibitor is present in a concentration of about 50 to 3000 ppm, preferably about 250 to 2,000 ppm, and most preferably about 500 to 1,000 ppm.
