"Explosives" (ML8 ML18 ML909) mean solid, liquid or gaseous substances or mixtures of substances which, in their application as primary, booster, or main charges in warheads, demolition and other applications, are required to detonate.
"Expression Vectors" (ML7) mean carriers (e.g., plasmid or virus) used to introduce genetic material into host cells.
"Fibrous or filamentary materials" (0 1 2 8 9 ML13) include:
 (a) continuous "monofilaments";
 (b) continuous "yarns" and "rovings";
 (c) "tapes", fabrics, random mats and braids;
 (d) chopped fibres, staple fibres and coherent fibre blankets;
 (e) whiskers, either monocrystalline or polycrystalline, of any length;
 (f) aromatic polyamide pulp.
"Film type integrated circuit" (3) means an array of 'circuit elements' and metallic interconnections formed by deposition of a thick or thin film on an insulating "substrate".
Note: 'Circuit element' is a single active or passive functional part of an electronic circuit, such as one diode, one transistor, one resistor, one capacitor, etc.
"First generation image intensifier tubes" (ML15) means electrostatically focused tubes, employing input and output fibre optic or glass face plates, multi‑alkali photocathodes (S‑20 or S‑25), but not microchannel plate amplifiers.
"Fly‑by‑light system" (7) is a primary digital flight control system employing feedback to control the "aircraft" during flight, where the commands to the effectors/actuators are optical signals.
"Fly‑by‑wire system" (7) is primary digital flight control system employing feedback to control the "aircraft" during flight, where the commands to the effectors/actuators are electrical signals.
"Focal plane array" (6) means a linear or two‑dimensional planar layer, or combination of planar layers, of individual detector elements, with or without readout electronics, which work in the focal plane.
Note: This definition does not include a stack of single detector elements or any two, three or four element detectors provided time delay and integration is not performed within the element.
"Fractional bandwidth" (3) means the "instantaneous bandwidth" divided by the centre frequency, expressed as a percentage.
"Frequency hopping" (5 6) means a form of "spread spectrum" in which the transmission frequency of a single communication channel is made to change by a random or pseudo‑random sequence of discrete steps.
"Frequency switching time" (3) means the time (i.e., delay) taken by a signal when switched from an initial specified output frequency, to arrive at or within any of the following:
 (a) ±100 Hz of a final specified output frequency of less than 1 GHz; or
 (b) ±0.1 part per million of a final specified output frequency equal to or greater than 1 GHz.
"Fuel cell" (8 ML17) means an electrochemical device that converts chemical energy directly into Direct Current (DC) electricity by consuming fuel from an external source.
