Ionized particles are a powder-like special item only obtainable in fusion reactors. This item is required in progression as a gating material, and has few uses beyond circuit parts and particle accelerator capsules.

Production

Ionized particles are primarily made in the fusion reactor as a byproduct of the Deuterium-Oxygen and Tritium-Helium-4 recipes.

Klystron Input Energy: 875.0MKyU/t
Plasma Output Energy: 4.0MTU/t
Output Neutron Flux: 500.0 flux/t

Alternatively, ionized particles can be duplicated using a mixer and ore acidizer as shown below, however this requires an existing ionized particle item from a fusion reactor.

Duplication

Ionized particles can be duplicated, requiring 1 ionized particle to start the process.

Ionized particles are mixed with liquid hydrogen and water, then processed in the acidizer to produce ionized particles.

In addition to these, it is also used to make flashgold, electronium, spark capacitors, quantum batteries, and schrabidium.

Trivia

  • Prior to version 1.0x27_X5523, ionized particles were the primary source of Helium-4.
  • It's completely unknown what ionized particles are actually meant to be.
