This is a List of Substances found in Code Lyoko that are of note.
Uranium
Uranium is a chemical element with symbol U and atomic number 92.
Forms of Uranium
Uranium has several different naturally occurring isotopes:
- Uranium 232
- Uranium 233
- Uranium 234
- Uranium 235
- Uranium 236
- Uranium 237
- Uranium 238
Uranium's only known natural origins are supernova and similar phenomenon, since its atomic masses are all greater than those of Iron. However, it can also be created as a decay product from transuranic elements, which are mostly synthetic. Uranium is found on earth primarily in Uraninite, a mineral which is also known as pitchblende. Uraninite is usually purified into Yellowcake Uranium, which is further processed for various nuclear processes such as reactors, weapons, manufacturing higher elements, and research substances.
Uranium in Code Lyoko
French-style Uranium rods "rods sealed in a transparent container with a noble gas buffer and magnetic caps" are used to power the Supercomputer. This was shown in "Common Interest", when the previous rod was no longer usable, and it had to be replaced by having a X.A.N.A.-possessed Peter Duncan steal a replacement rod, and Jeremie Belpois installing the replacement. As the rod began to fail, Aelita Schaeffer's heart stopped beating on every failure, along with Lyoko dissolving.
Nanomachine Gel
In "Amnesia", Suzanne Hertz showed a silver-grey liquid which was populated by nanobots. When heated, it turned purple. Ulrich Stern commented that it looked like Odd Della Robbia's hair gel.
