DEFINITION

Classification: 554/1

(under subclass 1) Compounds under Class 532, ..., which are long-chain aliphatic monocarboxylic acid derivatives, herein referred to as "fatty compounds", characterized by having the carbonyl of (1) a carboxylic acid, (2) a carboxylic acid salt, (3) a carboxylic acid ester, or (4) a carboxylic acid amide bonded directly to one end of an acyclic chain of at least seven uninterrupted carbons, i.e., the acid moiety; wherein any additional carbonyl group in the acid moiety is (1) part of an aldehyde or ketone group, (2) bonded directly to a noncarbon atom which is between the additional carbonyl and the chain, or (3) attached indirectly to the chain by ionic bonding.

(1) Note. The term "fatty compounds" referred to throughout the definitions is inclusive of fats, fatty oils, ester-type waxes, higher fatty acids, salts, esters, amides, and fatty still residues, the latter being the bottoms, tars, or pitches resulting from distillation of fats, oils, and waxes, e.g., stearine pitch. Fats and fatty oils are glycerides of higher fatty acids, including naturally occurring mixtures thereof present in a single oil or fat. Ester-type waxes are essentially esters in chemical structure, e.g., beeswax, montan wax, carnauba wax, and spermaceti.

(2) Note. Included herein are processes directed to the preparation, treatment, modification, purification, or recovery of fatty compounds by chemical or physical means which do not involve the destruction of the acid moiety as defined above, when such processes are not provided for elsewhere.

(3) Note. The treatment of a mixture of fats, oils, or waxes from different sources or a single oil, fat, or wax with a mixture of reactants, to produce a particular composition of matter having an art use for which there is a class provided, is classified in the class providing for said

art use and cross-referenced hereinto when desirable.
