Although the scientific work and
strange technology used by the Ducks and Saurians are rarely thoroughly
explained, several chemical elements unique to the show are important to
know and understand. Below is a listing and description of each element, and
their uses.
Adnauseum
A grey metal, adnauseum is used in the show to signal the Czarks by using
specific sound vibrations the metal creates when struck. As it is pretty
obvious by the name's play on words, this element does not really exist.
Bulerium
One of the most mentioned and important elements in the show, bulerium
crystals are large and orange. Used as a power source for ships engines like
those belonging to the Saurians and Czarks, bulerium is either very rare or
entirely non-existent on Earth. This is why Dragaunus has so much trouble
getting the Raptor to fly, because without the crystals, it can operate only
on impulse power. With its power core restored, the Raptor's weapon system
would be unstoppable.
Beryllium
Mentioned in a few of Nosedive's insults ("beryllium breath"), this is one
of the few elements mentioned in the show that is really in the periodic
table. However, it seems to have no important connection to either the Ducks
or their allies.
Bolonium
(Could be spelled baloneyum or belognium)- This is an element of great
importance to the Ducks, as they use the glowing purple substance to provide
power for their weaponry. This element's use was explained in the episode
"Bringing Down Baby". Bolonium is apparently a nonmetal, which can affect
energy waves that pass through it. The bolonium that the Ducks use is in the
form of a positively charged purple ion. When negatively charged, it turns
green.
Solarinite
An orange crystal in form, solarinite reacts strongly with other substances
in an exothermic way, giving off massive amounts of heat. This rare element
exists only on the island of Lickenstamp. Dragaunus tried to obtain large
amounts of solarinite in order to melt the Arctic ice cap.
