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+267E forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.
The CLDR project calls this character “infinity” for use in screen reading software. It assigns these additional labels, e.g. for search in emoji pickers: forever, unbounded, universal.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
Acid-free paper is paper that, if infused in water, yields a neutral or basic pH (7 or slightly greater). It can be made from any cellulose fiber as long as the active acid pulp is eliminated during processing. It is also lignin- and sulfur-free. Acid-free paper addresses the problem of preserving documents and preserving artwork for long periods.
