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 acrylic copolymer is provided. The acrylic copolymer includes: a main monomer-derived repeating unit; and a chain transfer agent-derived part, wherein the main monomer-derived repeating unit includes a (meth)acrylic acid alkyl ester monomer-derived repeating unit, a (meth)acrylic acid alkoxy alkyl ester monomer-derived repeating unit, and a crosslinking monomer-derived repeating unit, the chain transfer agent-derived part is derived from a chain transfer agent having a carbonothioylthio group, and the chain transfer agent-derived part is included in an amount of 0.03 parts by weight to 0.08 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the main monomer-derived repeating unit. A method of preparing the same, and an acrylic copolymer composition including the same is also provided.

Copolymers of one or more halogenated olefins and one or more halogenated co-monomers selected from the group consisting of halogenated alkenyl ethers, halogenated alkenyl esters, and halogenated (meth)acrylates are useful in various end-use applications wherein the presence of halogen (e.g., fluorine) in the copolymer imparts one or more desirable properties, as compared to analogous copolymers not containing halogen.
