Ferozium is, grey-blue metal with low electrical and thermal conductivity. An anomaly compared to most other materials, Ferozium has the unique property of being able to effectively repel heat when concentrated enough, making a thick layer of it quite, if not completely resistant to direct heat. While its melting point is only about as high as Aegisalt’s, at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit, it is no easy task to get the metal to heat to such a point. Due to this property, specialized equipment is required in order to manufacture and properly shape Ferozium, the most common being upscaled, high-powered induction heaters that allow no heat to escape. While Ferozium is quite cheap on its own, refining it is where cost and patience comes into play due to energy and fuel costs alone, and while it is affordable, forging Ferozium is a skill in and of itself. The name “Ferozium” derives from its first use in computing around 2600 as an experimental coolant system material.
WEIGHT: 0.18 lbs per cubic inch.
