This character is a Math Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script. The character is also known as plaintiff and quantic.
The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+226C forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.
The CLDR project calls this character “between” for use in screen reading software.
