Preferred Label : macromolecular isomorphism;
IUPAC definition : Statistical co-crystallization of different constitutional repeating units which may
either belong to the same copolymer chains (copolymer isomorphism) or originate from
different homopolymer chains (homopolymer isomorphism). Isomorphism is a general term:
in the strict sense, the crystal structure is essentially the same throughout the
range of compositions; in isodimorphism or isopolymorphism, there are two or more
crystal structures, respectively, depending on composition.;
