Various new partially fluorinated polymers on the basis of substituted N ‐phenylmaleimides are prepared by radical copolymerisation. Nearly alternating copolymers are produced with vinyl ethers and styrene derivatives. The copolymers show high stability against thermal degradation in comparison to conventional vinyl and vinylidene polymers, and high glass transition temperatures. Highest thermal stability is found for copolymers in which the classical hydrophilic and hydrophobic fragments are reduced to a minimum.
