One set of characters seems appropriate: 27EA (Ps) Mathematical Left Double Angle Bracket 27EB (Pe) Mathematical Right Double Angle Bracket If mathematical properties do not cause problems, then these characters would be ideal.
Three sets of characters are similar in appearance/properties: 00AB (Pi) and 00BB (Pf) Guillemets. These quotation marks are too small for the angle brackets we are proposing. Further, unification of the angle brackets with the guillemets because of the distinction between brackets and quotation marks and that they could both occur in the same text.
226A (Sm) Much Less Than, 226B(Sm) Much Greater Than These characters have the wrong properties.
300A (Ps) and 300B (Pe) Double Angle Brackets These characters have a ‘Wide’ property. Otherwise they are fine Inverted Crux Properties : Po
