Polymerization is not a property; it is a type of chemical reaction.
The monomer must be able to form stable covalent chemical bonds between units in order to polymerize.
Chemical
ethane is a precursor to ethylene which is polymerized to form polyethylene
physical
physical because a chemical change means it can never form back

"chemical"
No, it's an exceedingly unnatural material. For complicated reasons, if you polymerize ethylene, you get polyethylene, but if you polymerize propylene, you get ... polyethylene again. You have to use trickery (usually in the form of a Ziegler-Natta catalyst) to get polypropylene.

This depends on the quantity, chemical form, physical form, enrichment. In laboratory, for small samples, can by used bottles from glass, polyethylene, polypropylene, teflon. In industry containers of stainless steel or polyesters reinforced with glass fibers can be used. For uranium fluorides nickel alloys are recommended.
