U+92A5 "銥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
銥
U+92A5 "銥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily represents the chemical element iridium, which is a hard, brittle, silvery metal belonging to the platinum group, often used in high-temperature alloys and electrical contacts. In modern Chinese, it is most commonly encountered in scientific and industrial contexts, such as in the term "銥合金" meaning iridium alloy. Its structure combines the "金" (gold/metal) radical on the left, indicating its association with metals, and a phonetic component on the right. This character is rarely used in everyday Chinese but remains important for specialized fields like chemistry and metallurgy.
