DIFF Subclass Not Allocatable
C09C

TREATMENT OF INORGANIC MATERIALS, OTHER THAN FIBROUS FILLERS, TO ENHANCE THEIR PIGMENTING OR FILLING PROPERTIES (treatment of materials specially adapted to enhance their filling properties in mortars, concrete or artificial stone C04B14/00, C04B18/00, C04B20/00); PREPARATION OF CARBON BLACK

Introduced: September 1968

Description

C09C covers physical and chemical treatment methods applied to inorganic materials to improve their performance as pigments or fillers in paints, coatings, plastics, and related compositions. This includes surface modification, coating, grinding, and purification of mineral pigments and fillers, as well as the synthesis and processing of carbon black from carbonaceous sources. The subclass excludes fibrous fillers (covered elsewhere) and focuses on particulate inorganic solids that enhance color, opacity, or mechanical properties of end-use formulations.

CPC subdivides this area 3x more granularly than IPC with 3 additional codes.

3 codes are CPC-only extensions.

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

1 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
