By the way this text was written by a Spaniard originally, so I don't know if this would be Spanglish :o)

clarification on my use of "here" Just to clarify, when I say "what do they mean here", I am referring to the use of the expression "intruded copolymers", not to the overall block of text. Sorry for the confusion xx

graft copolymers

I am almost sure they use the term as synonymous to graft copolymers. It is a kind of copolymer where the side chains are different than the backbone of the polymer.
Was the article written in english originally, or has it been translated from another language?

In any textbook, the chapter dealing with copolymers mentions graft copolymers as one important type of these materials. You may have to ask the person who wrote it. Good luck! :-)

a copolymer that has been intruded

e.g. into pores by injection

See ref.:

Seems to be prevalent in medical applications

neutral Jörgen Slet : Somehow I suspect that the "intrusion" refers to some co-polymer synthesis process, rather than a mechanical process with pores. But I'm not terribly sure :)

Introduction. Is a sub-title. Co-Polimerization is the main title

Probably the programme for a chenistry lecture on co-polymerization.

Titled - Copolymerization.
Sub-title - Introduction.
list of subjects to be covered: -
Composition of statistical copolymers.
Evaluation of reactivity indexes.
Velocity in addition copolymerization.
Ionic copolymerization.
Intruded copolymers.
Block copolymers.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Cilian O'Tuama : You seem to have misread the Q (and 100% confidence is a bit high for an answer that starts with 'probably')//Asker is asking about "intruded copolymers", and you seem to have overlooked that (instead of explaining "intruded", you use the same term again)

What do you think the word 'here' refers to then Cilian? I am 100% confident that it is probably the title. I am 100% certain that what I laid out what the word 'here' refered to in an easily understood form.
