INDEXING SCHEME RELATING TO STRUCTURAL AND PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF SOLID INORGANIC COMPOUNDS

Description

C01P is an indexing scheme used to classify solid inorganic compounds based on their structural and physical properties rather than chemical composition or preparation methods. This classification captures characteristics such as crystal structure, particle morphology, porosity, surface area, and phase composition of inorganic materials. It serves as a supplementary tool to complement primary chemical classifications, enabling cross-referencing of patents by material properties that are relevant to performance and applications. This scheme is particularly useful for identifying patents involving advanced materials like nanostructured compounds, composites, and specialized ceramics where physical form significantly influences functionality.

Of 3 combined children, 0 exist in both systems.

3 codes are CPC-only extensions.

Note: 3 CPC extensions are marked as secondary classification only.

This code exists only in CPC.

Diff view requires codes present in both systems.
