precursor composition

"precursor composition"を日本語に訳しますと「前駆体組成」または「前駆体組成物」となって紛らわしいのですが、次のようにnative E. speakerによる(と思われる)文書に「前駆体組成物」の意味で使用されている例がいくつも見られますので「前駆体組成物」を"precursor composition"として差し支えないものと思われます:

The method includes the following steps : packaging a polymer precursor composition in a sealable container ; transferring the polymer precursor composition from the sealable container to a reaction vessel ; and polymerizing the polymer precursor composition.

Note from asker:
Many thnaks the inclusion of the practical application of the term in another patent made it a great answer that gave the confidence necessary to go ahead with my work.
Peer comment(s):

agree borha : this is the perfect explanation. "zenku" is frequently used in pharmaceutical chemistry to indicate a substance directly preceeding the final product in the course of its production

(biochemical) precursor

前駆体 is 'precursor'. Under the reference given, look at definition # 2. HTH.
