Randomly cross‐linked copolymers of 2‐hydroxyethyl‐methacrylate (HEMA) and methyl‐methacrylate (MMA) have been prepared and studied in the dry and swollen state. Tensile and indentation tests indicate that by changing the composition of copolymers, it is possible to obtain materials with a wide range of mechanical properties and corresponding glass transition temperatures. Water diffusion coefficients in sorption and desorption experiments have been calculated and compared.
