Abstract: The swelling of castor oil polyurethane/polymethyl methacrylate crosslinkedcopolymers in a number of solvents has been studied.It is found that the swelling behavior isin relation with the presence of the continuous phase in the crosslinked copolymers and thebinary diffusion coefficients are able to reflect the phase inversion of the copolymers.

Key words: castor oil polyurethane, polymethyl metharylate, crosslinked copolymer, swelling, phase inversion
