Provided herein are processes for the generation of composite polymer materials utilizing a single resin. The processes utilize diffusion between a region undergoing a polymerization reaction preferentially polymerizing one monomer component and an unreactive region. Diffusion and subsequent/concurrent polymerization results in a higher concentration of the more reactive monomer component in the reacting region and a higher concentration of the less reactive monomer components in the unreactive region. The unreactive region may be later polymerized. In embodiments, photopolymerization is used and the regions are generated by a mask or other mechanism to pattern the light.

An adhesive composition that contains two polymeric materials, a method of making the adhesive composition, and an article that contains the adhesive composition are provided. One of the polymeric materials is derived from a (meth)acrylate macromer having a poly(tetrahydrofuran) group. The articles include a layer of the adhesive composition positioned next to a substrate. The articles can be, for example, an adhesive tape or can be part of another article such as, for example, an electronic device that is impact resistant and/or flexible.

A UV curable dielectric coating is described. The curable coating can include one of more acrylate monomers, a urethane prepolymer, a crosslinker, at least one adhesion promoter, a photoinitiator, and optionally one or more fillers and/or additives. The coating can be used to insulate battery cells and battery packs, such as those used in electric vehicles. The coatings can be easily applied and quickly cured. The cured coatings can have high adhesion strength, even after exposure to wet conditions.
