(3) Note. The term "disassociated" is used to indicate that there is a destruction (or irreversible modification) of wrapper, package, cover material retainer structure in order to wind or unwind content material. Thus undoing a mere fold, flap or tuck in cover material is not destruction. However, note that subclasses 53, 54 and 55 have been retained in this class (206) though the clamp retainer is not destroyed to wind or unwind content. See search note to Class 242, below.

(2) Note. An article supported between parallel yieldable sheets or pads is not "suspended".

(3) Note. An article supported by or between springs making substantial surface contact with the article is not a "suspension" arrangement.

This subclass is indented under the class definition. A container wherein either the content or cover is particularly delineated in terms of one or more "chemical" constituents.

(1) Note. The term "chemical" is used here to include compound, composition, alloy, mixture, etc.

(2) Note. This and indented subclasses are residual, in this class, for "chemical" content and/or cover material so the whole subclass schedule must be screened for a more specific locus before assigning a document here.
