U+78FA "磺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+78FA "磺" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily associated with the meaning of sulfur, often used in chemical contexts to denote the element sulfur or related compounds. It is composed of the radical for "stone" (石) on the left, suggesting a mineral or solid substance, and a phonetic component on the right. Beyond chemistry, the character appears in words like "sulfuric acid" (硫酸, liúsuān) and in placenames such as "Huangshan" (黄山) in a distinct homophonic sense, though its core usage remains tied to the nonmetallic element. This character is categorized in East Asian typography as part of the CJK Unified Ideographs block, standard for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean written languages.
