U+9520 "锠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
锠
U+9520 "锠" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the traditional form of a word meaning a type of steel or hard metal, often used in the context of tools or industrial materials. This character falls within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) Unified Ideographs block, and in modern usage it is less common than its simplified counterpart, but it appears in historical texts and technical contexts related to metalworking. Its composition combines the radical for metal or gold, 金, with the phonetic component 昌, which suggests its pronunciation as chang in Mandarin.
