(2) Chemical preparations are mixtures or solutions composed of two or more chemical substances (hereinafter referred to as "preparations").
(3) Polymer is a substance whose molecules consist of a chain of one or more types of monomer units containing more than half the weight of molecules with at least three monomer units associated with a covalent bond with at least another monomer unit or other reactant and containing less than half the weight of molecules with the same molecular weight. The mass of the molecules of the substance is within a certain range, with the mass differences between the molecules mainly related to the differences in the number of monomer units. The monomer unit within the meaning of this definition is a reacted form of monomer in a polymer molecule.
