Normal Subgroup Of (⊲) is the Unicode character U+22B2, formally named NORMAL SUBGROUP OF. This relation reads from a normal subgroup toward the object that contains it. The unqualified form does not include equality in its Unicode name. A separately encoded comparison target is ⊳ Contains As Normal Subgroup (U+22B3).
The relation encoded by Normal Subgroup Of
⊲ expresses the NORMAL SUBGROUP OF relation without equality. Its formal direction runs from the subgroup toward the containing object.
This plain NORMAL SUBGROUP OF character does not include equality. That absence is meaningful because Unicode also has a separate OR EQUAL TO variant.

The formal-name difference between ⊲ and ⊳
⊲ (U+22B2) and ⊳ (U+22B3) are separate Unicode records whose formal names identify different members of the same mathematical family.
For U+22B2, compare the complete formal name before substituting another family member.
Digital Representations of U+22B2
U+22B2 = decimal 8882 = HTML ⊲ / ⊲. A Unicode escape-style form is u22B2. Its UTF-8 bytes are E2 8A B2.
Use these identifiers in markup, source code, exports, or character diagnostics when the glyph alone is not enough.
