Chapter 129 After ten days, it will be a decisive battle

Su Yu and the others finally found the radioactive material, which was actually a piece of ore that emitted purple light in the darkness.

Su Yu immediately stepped forward and cut a small part of the purple ore with a plasma sword, then sealed it, and returned from afar. Captain Phil asked, "What method do you want to analyze this special mineral?"

"As far as I know, there are only a few mainstream methods for treating radioactive minerals. First, it is sealed with glassware, because glass has excellent chemical stability and is the perfect material for storing fixed radioactive minerals." This is why Su Yu wanted to make glass containers first.

Captain Phil nodded: "I understand this, but how do you study this ore?"

Su Yu brought the ore back to the laboratory and then said: "Since it is a radioactive ore and our conditions are limited, we can only use X-fluorescence measurement method. The principle is to use X-rays emitted by artificial radioisotopes to activate the elements to be tested in rock minerals or soil to produce characteristic X-rays (fluorescence)."

"The characteristic X-ray energy emitted by elements of different atomic numbers is different, so different elements can be distinguished based on their energy peaks, the element content can be determined according to their intensity, and a multi-element measurement can be achieved."

Captain Phil asked again: "How do you get artificial radioisotope?"

Others also raised their ears.

Su Yu smiled and said, "On our earth, there was once a celebrity who obtained this isotope with very simple facilities. This person is respected by us as Madame Curie."

It is actually not difficult to extract artificial radioactive isotopes, there are many ways to do it.

Captain Phil gave the easiest method, she said: "I think I understand what you are going to do. You want to extract radioactive elements from uranium ore. But finding uranium ore is a big project. It is better to find fragments of dimensional warships than finding uranium ore. As long as you find the fuel bank, you may find some radioactive minerals."

Su Yu nodded and said, "That's great, Captain Phil, please look for fragments of the dimensional battleship and bring back the fragments containing uranium. I'm here to build the original equipment for extracting radioactive minerals."

Su Yu was too lazy to run away. Anyway, Wei Guang people ran fast, so it would be better for them to run errands.

Captain Phil paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, leave it to me."

She immediately set off with the Glimmer Man, while Su Yu began to build a new laboratory and create new equipment.

Fortunately, Rikonglong rested after patrolling the territory, so the Wei Guangren brought back the uranium-containing material without encountering any obstacles. Then Su Yu followed Madame Curie's method, which required a lot of sulfuric acid.

To get sulfuric acid, you need sulfur. Fortunately, there are quite a lot of volcanoes on this planet.

Su Yu continued, "Captain, please help me, go and bring me some sulfur and pyrote back."

Captain Phil did not refuse either. She wanted to see what Su Yu would do, so she continued to run errands with the Glimmer Man, and soon brought back a large amount of sulfur and pyrote.

Subsequently, Su Yu built a combustion furnace and placed the pyrote in a high-temperature furnace and calcined it with a heavy fire. The gas generated in it was directed out through a conduit and fleeceed into pure water.

Captain Phil was very surprised: "Fry sulfur dioxide at high temperature and then dissolve the sulfur dioxide in water?"

Su Yu didn't say anything, just smiled slightly, and he continued to use the method of electrolyzing water to obtain oxygen.

The method of obtaining oxygen by electrolyzing water is very simple, and I learned it in chemistry in junior high school.

After obtaining oxygen, Su Yu injected oxygen into the water rich in sulfur dioxide. After repeated repetition, he obtained sulfuric acid.

Captain Phil finally suddenly showed up a bunch of chemical formulas: "Sulphur dioxide forms sulfuric acid with water, and sulfuric acid reacts with oxygen to oxidize to form sulfuric acid... Your Excellency Su Yu, are you really not from a professional background? You really are not from a scientific research institute?"

Su Yu smiled and shook his head: "I just know a little about everything."

Subsequently, Su Yu soaked sulfuric acid into the substances containing uranium and separated a lot of substances, but he still did not find the legendary element.

"It is said that only 1 gram of radium can be obtained for every 2.8 tons of uranium mine, so Captain, I have to trouble you again. It is best to discover wild uranium mines so that you don't have to search for spacecraft fragments." Su Yu said.

Captain Phil immediately set off: "Don't worry, there must be so many uranium fragments."

Su Yu sighed: "I already knew that I could get radium by doing this, but Madame Curie didn't know that back then. You can imagine how long she had done experiments and devoted her time to science. Great people can always endure loneliness."

Time began to pass by little by little. On the tenth day after they arrived on this planet, Su Yu finally extracted radium chloride. Then, Su Yu used electrolysis to obtain metal radium and made radium needles.

Su Yu said: "Using this thing is to kill people invisibly."

With the radium needle, Su Yu finally began to detect the brand new radioactive minerals dug from the deep pit.

This must be done in the dark so that the fluorescence can be seen clearly.

Captain Phil and Su Yu conducted an experiment together. Su Yu sighed: "I went around in circles and came back here."

They kept measuring and comparing. Captain Phil had a very powerful amount of knowledge. She could clearly remember the number of protons of all elements on the periodic table and the peak of X-ray energy of radioactive matter.

However, after they conducted the test, any known radioactive substances did not correspond to such radioactive substances.

"A new substance, something that often happens when traveling through all worlds, will be found in other worlds that are not in the world we live in." Captain Phil said affirmatively.

Su Yu sighed: "I really have a big circle, but we still don't know what this is."

Captain Phil said: "But the radioactivity of this substance is even stronger than any radioactivity known to be."

Su Yu asked, "What do you mean?"

Captain Phil said: "The effect of radioactive materials is very large. The most common usage is to make weapons. The uranium materials I find for you are bullets of our dimensional warship weapons."

Su Yu was shocked. The Wei Guang Man had already made uranium into bullets, so that every bullet could produce the effect of a nuclear explosion? This is so terrifying!

Captain Phil continued: "I plan to use this substance to make a brand new radioactive material bullet and then use it against the Rift Dragon!"

Su Yu asked: "Are you sure? Don't forget that we don't have any refined equipment, only the original scientific research department."

Captain Phil said: "It's enough. As long as you know the peak X-ray energy of this substance, it's enough. Our Weir Light Man's technology is also worthy of praise in all worlds."

Su Yuting was relieved: "It seems that it's useless for me to build this big circle."

Captain Phil said: "I found our material generator in the previous battleship fragments. We can use that kind of thing to make bullets, but the material generator cannot handle unknown matter. Fortunately, we have measured the energy peak of this radioactive matter. With this, I can calculate the number of protons of the matter and use it on the material generator."

Su Yu couldn't help but praise: "The technology of Wei Guangren is indeed powerful."

Captain Phil also sighed: "Learning is endless. I have learned a lot from you these days, but let's look at ours. At most ten days, we can develop bullets to deal with the Rising Dragon."

Su Yu's eyes slightly condensed: "Will ten days? It's okay, ten days later..."
