A polymer resulting from addition polymerization of two different monomers The resulting copolymers have properties different from either of the homopolymers from the two monomers or the mechanical mixture of the homopolymers
Polymers that are derived from more than one species of monomer Polymers having monomeric units differing in constitutional or configurational features but derived from a single monomer, are not regarded as copolymers
A polymer composed of two or more different monomers The different monomers can be linked randomly, or in repeating sequences, or in blocks, or as side chains off the main chain
