CPC - C01B - 2021.08 C01B NON-METALLIC ELEMENTS; COMPOUNDS THEREOF; {METALLOIDS OR COMPOUNDS THEREOF NOT COVERED BY SUBCLASS C01C} Definition statement This place covers: The chemical elements of hydrogen, halogen (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine), oxygen, sulfur, phosphorus, silicon, nitrogen, boron, selenium, tellurium, and noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon). Compounds solely composed of any of the elements listed above. Carbon and compounds of carbon with any of the elements listed above, with the proviso that said compounds cannot contain a carbon atom having direct bonding to another carbon atom, a carbon atom having direct bonding to a hydrogen atom or a halogen atom, or a carbon atom having direct bonding to a nitrogen atom by a single or double bond. Compounds composed solely of one or more metal atoms and hydrogen. Peroxides and salts of peroxyacids. Magnesium, calcium, strontium, or barium sulfides or polysulfides. Alkali metal sulfides or polysulfides. Thiosulfates, dithionites and polythionates. Compounds containing selenium or tellurium. Azides, metal amides and nitrites. Carbamic acid and salts thereof. Binary compounds containing a metal and either N, C or P. Salts of the oxyacids of halogen or phosphorus. Compounds consisting only of carbon atoms, e.g. fullerenes, carbon nanotubes. Phosgene and thiophosgene. Compounds containing silicon such as silicates, silicon oxides or colloidal silica, e.g. dispersions, gels, hydroorganosols, organosols. Compounds containing boron. Substances having molecular sieve properties, but not having base-exchange properties. Substances having a combination of molecular sieve and base-exchange properties, e.g. crystalline zeolites.
