G21G 1/06

by neutron irradiation

Introduced: July 1974

Full Title

Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Arrangements for converting chemical elements by electromagnetic radiation, corpuscular radiation, or particle bombardment, e.g. producing radioactive isotopes > outside of nuclear reactors or particle accelerators > by neutron irradiation

CPC:

Arrangements for converting chemical elements by electromagnetic radiation, corpuscular radiation or particle bombardment, e.g. producing radioactive isotopes (separation of different isotopes of the same element B01D59/00) > outside nuclear reactors or particle accelerators > by neutron irradiation

IPC and CPC are identically structured here. All 1 subcodes exist in both systems.

IPC defines codes here since 1974.
