COOPERATIVE PATENT CLASSIFICATION
D21H
PULP COMPOSITIONS; PREPARATION THEREOF NOT COVERED BY SUBCLASSES D21C OR D21D; IMPREGNATING OR COATING OF PAPER; TREATMENT OF FINISHED PAPER NOT COVERED BY CLASS B31 OR SUBCLASS D21G; PAPER NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR [2019-08]
NOTES

  • This subclass covers also pulp compositions for the preparation of fibreboard or other fibrous articles by wet processes.
  • In this subclass, the following terms are used with the meaning indicated:
    • "pulp" means a dispersion, { e.g. an aqueous suspension,} comprising paper-making fibres and optional additives, which is to be processed, and covers the term "stock"; it also means dry paper-making fibres which are to be made into paper by either wet or dry processes;
    • "paper" means paper, cardboard or wet-laid non-woven fabrics.
  • In groups D21H 11/00 - D21H 15/00, in the absence of an indication to the contrary, classification is made in the last appropriate place.
WARNINGS

  • The following IPC group is not in the CPC scheme. The subject matter for this IPC group is classified in the following CPC group:
    D21H27/12 covered by D21H 27/00, H01B 3/52
