For the convenience of 1

5 international communication and trade, capitalized English letters or international practices may be adopted as well. Symbols of common chemical elements are detailed in Table If the Chinese phonetic alphabet or English letter is used to express the product name, purpose, characteristics and process method, generally the first letter of the phonetic transcription or the English word of the product is adopted. If the first letter is the same with that of another product, the second or third letter shall be adopted; or first letters of two (or more) phonetic transcriptions or English words shall be adopted at the same time. If Chinese phonetic letters or English letters are adopted, in principle, only one letter is adopted; in general, the number of adopted letters shall not exceed The notation for each part of the product designation shall meet the corresponding provisions. Each part shall be arranged in the right sequence and the unnecessary ones may be omitted. Except for special regulations, no gap shall be reserved between letters, symbols and numerals. 2.5 The mass fraction is used to express the element content of the product designation.
