The present invention is a composition stabilized against premature polymerization comprising: a) one or more olefinic monomers, b) one or more oxygenated components capable to be converted to peroxides, c) an efficient amount of one or more additives capable to inhibit the polymerization of the olefinic monomers of a), d) optionally an efficient amount of one or more additives capable to inhibit the production of peroxides. In an embodiment to make the stabilized composition, the additives c) and d) are introduced separately into the mixture of a) and b). The oxygenated components capable to be converted to peroxides can be selected among alcohols, aldehydes, cetones, ethers and organic acids. The additive capable to inhibit the polymerization of the olefinic monomers can be a stable free radical or hydroxylamines substituted with at least one alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, hydroxyalkyl or hydroxylaryl group. The stable free radical is advantageously a stable nitroxide. The additive capable to inhibit the production of peroxides can be selected among the unhindered phenols, the hindered phenols, the aminophenols and the phenylenediamines.
Composition stabilized against premature polymerization comprising:
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the oxygenated components capable to be converted to peroxides are selected among alcohols, aldehydes, cetones, ethers and organic acids.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the additive capable to inhibit the polymerization of the olefinic monomers is a stable free radical.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the additive capable to inhibit the polymerization of the olefinic monomers is selected among hydroxylamines substituted with at least one alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, hydroxyalkyl or hydroxylaryl group.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the additive capable to inhibit the production of peroxides is selected among the unhindered phenols, the hindered phenols, the aminophenols and the phenylenediamines.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the proportion of b) with reference to a) is around about 20 to about 10000 wppm and advantageously from about 100 to about 2000.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the proportion of c) with reference to a) is up to about 50 wppm.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the proportion of d) with reference to a) is up to 50 wppm.
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the additives c) and d) are introduced separately into the mixture of a) and b).
Composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the olefinic monomers of a) are made essentially by conversion of methanol or dimethyl ether on a molecular sieve, or by dehydration of an alcohol or by cracking of fatty acids or natural triglycerides.
