Solution

Copolymerisation is a process in which a mixture of more than one monomeric species is allowed to polymerise. The copolymer contains multiple units of each monomer in the chain. The examples are copolymers of $1, 3$ -butadiene and styrene, hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid (Nylon- $6, 6$ ) and $1, 3$ -butadiene and acrylonitrile.
