I'm surprised that I've not covered this sequence before but checking through my previous posts it certainly seems as if I haven't. Here is the sequence in question:
A046351 Palindromic composite numbers with only palindromic prime factors.
The initial members of this sequence, up to 40000, are (permalink):
4, 6, 8, 9, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 121, 202, 242, 252, 262, 303, 343, 363, 393, 404, 484, 505, 525, 606, 616, 626, 686, 707, 808, 909, 939, 1111, 1331, 1441, 1661, 1991, 2112, 2222, 2662, 2772, 2882, 3333, 3443, 3773, 3883, 3993, 4224, 4444, 5445, 5555, 5775, 6336, 6666, 6776, 6886, 7777, 7997, 8448, 8888, 9999, 10201, 12221, 13231, 14641, 15251, 15851, 18281, 19291, 20402, 20602, 22622, 22822, 23232, 24442, 24842, 25152, 25452, 26462, 26662, 28682, 30603, 30903, 31613, 33933, 34643, 35653, 36663, 37673, 37873, 38683, 39693, 39993
There are 94 terms in all. Let's just look at the numbers with two distinct prime factors but each of which is two digits or longer. It can be noted that these numbers have either 11 or 101 as factors.
