Abstract

A high molecular material and a medical material which is a mixed material containing a copolymer A produced by copolymerization of a monomer composition containing a monomer having a side chain represented by the formula (1) ##STR1## (R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 ; H or a C1-4 alkyl group) and a hydrophobic monomer, and one or more sorts of hydrophobic polymer B other than the copolymer A; wherein structure of said mixed material shows phase separation in which domains of several hundred micrometers or less in size consisting of the copolymer A are uniformly distributed in a phase consisting of said hydrophobic polymer B. A liquid high molecular composition in which the copolymer A and the hydrophobic polymer B are dissolved in a mixed solvent consisting of a halogenated hydrocarbon solvent and a lower alcohol solvent, which has turbidity of 60% or less.
