A polymer is a chemical compound with large molecules made of many smaller molecules of the same kind. Some polymers exist naturally and others are produced in laboratories and factories. a chemical compound that has a simple structure of large molecules (polymeres , from meros ). Any of a class of natural or synthetic substances composed of macromolecules that are multiples of monomers. The monomers need not all be the same or have the same structure. Polymers may consist of long chains of unbranched or branched monomers or may be cross-linked networks of monomers in two or three dimensions. Their backbones may be flexible or rigid. Some natural inorganic materials (e.g., the minerals diamond, graphite, and feldspar) and certain man-made inorganic materials (e.g., glass) have polymer-like structures. Many important natural materials are organic polymers, including cellulose (from sugar monomers; see polysaccharide), lignin, rubber, proteins (from amino acids), and nucleic acids (from nucleotides). Synthetic organic polymers include many plastics, including polyethylene, the nylons, polyurethanes, polyesters, vinyls (e.g., PVC), and synthetic rubbers. The silicone polymers, with an inorganic backbone of silicon and oxygen atoms and organic side groups, are among the most important mixed organic-inorganic compounds

A chemical reaction in which one or more small molecules combine to form larger molecules A hazardous polymerization is such a reaction that takes place at a rate that releases large amounts of energy If hazardous polymerization can occur with a given material, the MSDS usually will list conditions that could start the reaction andsince the material usually contains a polymerization inhibitorthe length of time during which the inhibitor will be effective
A chemical reaction in which small molecules (monomers) combine to form much larger molecules (polymers) A hazardous polymerization is a reaction that occurs at a fast rate, and releases large amounts of energy Many monomers are hazardous in the liquid and vapor states, but form much less hazardous polymers An example is vinyl chloride monomer, which causes cancer but forms the relatively non-toxic polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic

Reaction of two molecules to form a polymer; the length of the polymer chain is specified by the number of repeat units in the chain (degree of polymerization)
Any process in which monomers combine chemically to produce a polymer. The monomer molecules which in the polymer usually number from at least 100 to many thousands may or may not all be the same. In nature, enzymes carry out polymerization under ordinary conditions to form proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrate polymers; in industry, the reaction is usually done with a catalyst, often under high pressure or heat. In addition polymerization, monomers are added successively to the reactive ends of a growing polymer molecule, similar to adding links to a chain; during the reactions, no by-products are formed. In condensation polymerization, growth of the polymer advances stepwise monomers having reactive functional groups combine into larger molecules with their own functional groups; each reaction splits off a small molecule, often water, as a by-product

Under the Seventh Amendment a polymer is defined as a substance which: Consists of molecules which include a sequence of one or more types of monomer units (the reacted form of a monomer in the structure); Show a molecular weight distribution primarily due to differences in the number of monomer units in the individual molecules; Contain 50% or more by weight of molecules containing a sequence of at least three monomer units covalently bound to at least 1 other monomer unit or reactant; Contain less than 50% by weight of molecules with the same molecular weight A polymer becomes notifiable when it contains 2% or more of a new substance as part of its structure Guidance on Polymer Notification
