U+9384 "鎄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鎄
U+9384 "鎄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in the context of chemistry, as it represents the element einsteinium (Es). This character is composed of the metal radical 釒 (jīn) on the left, indicating its association with metals, and the phonetic component 哀 (āi) on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation. In modern Chinese nomenclature for transuranic elements, "鎄" was historically assigned to einsteinium, although in some simplified Chinese systems it may be replaced by the simpler form 锿. Its usage is highly specialized, appearing mainly in scientific and technical texts rather than in everyday language.
