聚合物进口商是否必须将用于制造聚合物的单体和任何其他物质通报到分类和标签清单？

Do the monomers and any other substance used for the manufacturing of a polymer have to be notified to the Classification and labelling Inventory by the importer of the polymer?

不，并非如此。根据 REACH 法规第 3(5) 条，聚合物是一种物质。进口聚合物并不等同于将该聚合物物质的单体及任何其他物质投放市场。因此，关于聚合物进口的 C&L 通知规定仅适用于聚合物物质本身。需要注意的是，聚合物组成中存在的任何残留/未反应的单体均被视为聚合物的成分。因此，与任何其他成分一样，它们也应被纳入聚合物分类的考虑范围。

No, they do not. In accordance with Article 3(5) of the REACH Regulation, a polymer is a substance. Importing a polymer does not correspond to the placing on the market of the monomers and any other substance from which the polymer substance originates. The C&L notification provisions for the import of a polymer can therefore only apply to the polymer substance itself. It should be noted that any residual/unreacted monomers present in the composition of the polymer are considered as constituents of the polymer. Thus, as any other constituent, they should be taken into account for classification of the polymer.
