52. 22a and has the meaning of counting the total number (finite) of distinct nets (as, for instance, in the case of an n-fold diamondoid net). In polycatenated systems we cannot define a degree of interpenetration with the same topological meaning as described above. Indeed, in the inclined interweaving of 2D layers (2D → 3D) there is an infinite number of other motifs interlocked with each single motif, and to simply describe such arrays as 'n-fold interpenetrated networks' seems to us rather inadequate. Also, in the case of parallel interweaving of 2D layers (2D → 3D) we prefer to state, for instance, that a layer is catenated to other two (one 'upper' and one 'lower' , with a 'density of catenation' equal to 2) rather than to define the system as 3-fold interpenetrated (that seems rather misleading and can be confused with a real case of a 3-fold interpenetration of three layers located on a common average plane). Different systems with peculiar topologies can need different notations.
