Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Alloys based on carbides, oxides, borides, nitrides or silicides, e.g. cermets, or other metal compounds, e. g. oxynitrides, sulfides > based on carbides or carbonitrides > based on carbides, but not containing other metal compounds > based on titanium carbide

CPC:

Alloys based on carbides, oxides, nitrides, borides, or silicides, e.g. cermets, or other metal compounds, e.g. oxynitrides, sulfides > based on carbides or carbonitrides > based on carbides, but not containing other metal compounds > based on titanium carbide
