Abstract

A system for recovering a diacetylenic monomer shelf life monitoring compound of reduced particle size and narrow size distribution range which comprises quenching a solution of the monomer by mixing the solution in a lower temperature quenching fluid having a base temperature which is at least about 30° C. below the nominal temperature at which the monomer compound recrystallizes from solution, the mixing being effected in such a manner as to limit the resulting quenching mixture temperature to one which is not higher than a maximum of about 15° C. above the quenching fluid base temperature.
