Introduced: September 1968
Description
C04B covers the manufacture, composition, and properties of inorganic binding materials and their derivatives, including lime, magnesia, and cementitious materials (Portland cement, slag cements, etc.), as well as their composite applications in mortars, concrete, and other building materials. The class encompasses artificial stone production, ceramic materials and manufacturing processes, and refractory compositions designed for high-temperature applications. Also included are methods and materials for treating, processing, or modifying natural stone products for construction or industrial use.
