The experimental apparatus employed for monitoring fast polymerizing and crosslinking processes is described in detail. The measurement method for the particular application is widely discussed and the resulting performances of the measurement technique are reported. As an example, the experimental results for polymerization and crosslinking reactions of n ‐butyl acrylate and 1,6‐hexandiol‐diacrylate are shown and the accuracy of the data acquisition is demonstrated.
