Notes

(1)

In this group, in the absence of an indication to the contrary, compositions are classified according to the constituent present in the highest proportion by weight. [3]

(2)

In this group, magnesium is considered as an alkaline earth metal. [6]

(3)

In this group, a composite is considered as a sintered mixture of different powdered materials, other than sintering aids, the materials being present as separate phases in the sintered product. [6]

(4)

In this group, fine ceramics are considered as products having a polycrystalline fine-grained microstructure, e.g. of dimensions below 100 micrometers. [6]

(5)

The production of ceramic powder is classified in this group in so far as it relates to the preparation of powder with specific characteristics. [6]

(6)

In this group, it is desirable to add the indexing code of group C 04 B 101:00. The indexing code should be unlinked. [6]

Notes

(1)

In group C 04 B 35/66, it is desirable to add the indexing codes relating to individual constituents of the monolithic refractories or refractory mortars. The indexing codes, which are chosen from groups C 04 B 7/00 to C 04 B 28/00, with the exception of groups C 04 B 7/13, C 04 B 7/36 to C 04 B 7/60, C 04 B 9/11 to C 04 B 9/20, C 04 B 11/02 to C 04 B 11/036, C 04 B 11/28 and C 04 B 11/30, have the same numbers as the classification symbols, but a colon is used instead of the oblique stroke, and should be linked. [6]

Attention is drawn to Chapter IV of the Guide which sets forth the rules concerning the application and presentation of the different types of indexing code. [6]
