Notes. 1.- This Chapter does not cover: (a) Goods of heading 32.07 (for example, vitrifiable enamels and glazes, glass frit, other glass in the form of powder, granules or flakes); (b) Articles of Chapter 71 (for example, imitation jewellery); (c) Optical fibre cables of heading 85.44, electrical insulators (heading 85.46) or fittings of insulating material of heading 85.47; (d) Front windscreens (windshields), rear windows and other windows, framed, for vehicles of Chapters 86 to 88; (e) Front windscreens (windshields), rear windows and other windows, whether or not framed, incorporating heating devices or other electrical or electronic devices, for vehicles of Chapters 86 to 88; (f) Optical fibres, optically worked optical elements, hypodermic syringes, artificial eyes, thermometers, barometers, hydrometers or other articles of Chapter 90; (g) Luminaires or lighting fittings, illuminated signs, illuminated name-plates and the like, having a permanently fixed light source, or parts thereof of heading 94.05; (h) Toys, games, sports requisites, Christmas tree ornaments or other articles of Chapter 95 excluding glass eyes without mechanism for dolls or for other articles of Chapter 95); or (ij) Buttons, fitted vacuum flasks, scent or similar sprays or other articles of Chapter 96. 2.- For the purposes of headings. 70.03, 70.04 and 70.05: (a) glass is not regarded as "worked" by reason of any process it has undergone before annealing; (b) cutting to shape does not affect the classification of glass in sheets; (c) the expression "absorbent, reflecting or non-reflecting layer" means a microscopically thin coating of metal or of a chemical compound (for example, metal oxide) which absorbs, for example, infra-red light or improves the reflecting qualities of the glass while still allowing it to retain a degree of transparency or translucency, or which prevents light from being reflected on the surface of the glass. 3.- The products referred to in heading 70.06 remain classified in that heading whether or not they have the character of articles. 4.- For the purposes of heading 70.19, the expression "glass wool" means: (a) Mineral wools with a silica (SiO ) content not less than 60% by weight; 2 (b) Mineral wools with a silica (SiO ) content less than 60% but with an alkaline oxide (K O or Na O) content 2 2 2 exceeding 5% by weight or a boric oxide (B O ) content exceeding 2% by weight. 2 3 Mineral wools which do not comply with the above specifications fall in heading 68.06. 5.- Throughout this Schedule, the expression "glass" includes fused quartz and Other fused silica. Sub-heading Note. For the purposes of sub-headings. 7013.21, 7013.31 and 7013.91, the expression "lead crystal" means only glass having a minimum lead monoxide (PbO) content by weight of 24 per cent.
