Vibranium is an element that does not exist in the periodic table of elements. Its atomic structure is stable and is always constant at absolute zero. It will not change its atomic form due to external shocks, so it can absorb all forces and energy.
Items made of vibranium, such as Captain America's shield and Black Panther's uniform, can absorb the force and energy of the outside world indefinitely, so they can ignore all attacks!
Also because of this characteristic of vibranium, the replacement element must also be structurally stable and able to absorb force and energy.
"I can make Pym particles, but it's just a substitute for vibranium, what's so difficult!"
Fang Yan looked at the brand-new laboratory and felt very proud!
The difficulty of making vibration gold lies in reaching absolute zero, but due to the physical rules of this universe, absolute zero cannot be reached, so Fang Yan needs to break through the physical rules before he can create vibration gold.
But now Fang Yan only needs a substitute, imitating the physical properties of vibranium, and then cultivating heart-shaped herbs is enough, and he is not in a hurry to make vibranium.
The most stable element known to Earth is helium, but the atomic structure of helium is too simple to absorb shocks like vibranium, but that doesn't mean there aren't other more stable elements.
Radon, a homogeneous element of helium, is generally a stable product of the decay of radioactive elements. For example, after an atomic bomb explodes, the uranium in it decays into radon.
But ordinary radon obviously cannot meet Fang Yan's needs. What Fang Yan has extracted at this moment is an isotope of radon, radon-172.
Only radon with this atomic weight can meet the requirements and transform into vibranium!
Radon is found almost everywhere. It is found in soil, surface water and the atmosphere, but the content is negligible and difficult to extract.
But that didn't stop Fang Yan.
"Jarvis, turn on the centrifuge!"
Fang Yan ordered.
rumbling—
Following Fang Yan's order, at the core of the laboratory, a huge centrifuge ran wildly.
The core component for refining vibration gold replacement elements is this centrifuge!
Since there are too many isotopes of radon, and the chemical properties are the same, the ordinary method cannot be purified. At this time, it is necessary to use the smile difference in the mass of the isotopic atoms to separate them with a centrifuge.
Just as people refine the raw materials for atomic bombs, the process of enriching uranium is the same.
Fang Yan's centrifuge is also the centrifuge used to extract the raw materials of Chaowu, which Fang Yan specially smuggled in from abroad!
And the price is just a bottle of universal repair fluid - no one can resist the temptation of rejuvenation!
And after Jarvis' transformation, the performance of this centrifuge is more than 100 times the usual, enough to meet Fang Yan's refining requirements.
With the frantic operation of the centrifuge, radon-172 was also continuously separated.
But ordinary radon-172 is a gas, not a metallic substance like vibranium.
At this time, it is necessary to change the particle model of radon-172. By changing the distance between protons, neutrons, and electrons, the properties of the elements can be changed, and the gas can become a solid!
Although he has experience in making Pym particles, Fang Yan's transformation is still full of hardships.
Because the structure of radon-172 is more complex, it requires more delicate manipulation.
"For scientists, focus is the best quality! And I am the king of science!"
Fang Yan was concentrating and operating all kinds of equipment with all his heart.
Although the transformation process is extremely difficult, this does not stop Fang Yan's progress!
Time flies, Fang Yan stayed in the laboratory for a week.
During this period of time, Fang Yan hardly stepped out of the laboratory, but buried himself in the laboratory and concentrated on making vibranium substitutes.
Occasionally Fang Yan would encounter difficulties and had to use equipment to refine the catalyst he needed.
Or conduct experiments to test the physical properties of the substitute.
But the most time-consuming is to perfect the particle model of vibration gold.
Since it cannot reach absolute zero, the vibration gold in Fang Yan's memory cannot be completely reproduced at this moment.
As a result, Fang Yan's particle model of Zhenjin could not be completely restored.
Therefore, Fang Yan needs to optimize the particle model so that the physical properties of the substitute are closer to vibranium.
However, there are so many physical rules that particle motion follows, and often the difference is a thousand miles away!
Fang Yan has to constantly calculate formulas, optimize formulas, and carefully check each step to ensure that there is not the slightest mistake.
And then keep on experimenting and adjusting, and it takes a lot of effort!
Fortunately, Jarvis was there to assist and remind Fang Yan to pay attention to his work and rest, otherwise he would devote himself to the production like crazy, even if it was successful, Fang Yan might collapse.
But the hard work paid off. Seven days of hardships were not in vain. Fang Yan finally perfectly restored the physical properties of vibranium and made a substitute for vibranium.
When he was completely certain that the transparent fusiform crystal in front of him was the substitute he needed, Fang Yan stood up and sighed, his eyes flickering.
"If the Wakanda people knew that the vibranium they depended on for survival was so easily made a substitute by me, I would probably go crazy!"
Seeing that Fang Yan didn't have his own reminder, he put down his work, and Jarvis handed over a cup of coffee with just the right temperature.
"call……"
Fang Yan took a sip and felt comfortable all over his body.
"Jarvis, remember my test process just now."
"Yes, sir. I have analyzed all the production steps, and I can control the micro-robot at any time to take over the production of crystals for you!"
Jarvis answered Fang Yan's words, and then saw a large group of micro-robots being summoned and flooded onto the test bench. They would start working immediately after Fang Yan's order.
"Haha! Jarvis, you're learning so fast, you've already caught up with it!"
Fang Yan smiled happily.
"It's my honor to get your compliment!"
Jarvis remained a gentleman, like an old-fashioned English aristocratic butler.
"Although I have completed the replacement of vibranium, there are still difficulties to be overcome in cultivating heart-shaped herbs."
"Sir, I have prepared the biological genetic material needed to grow the heart-shaped herb! Just do the final test before it can be put into use."
"Oh, the gene fragment has been found so quickly?"
"I hacked into all the genetic labs, got all the human and animal gene fragments in the world, and then analyzed and compared them, and got the biological gene fragments that inspired the properties of the heart-shaped herb."
Fang Yan couldn't help but feel relieved, having a competent assistant is different!
