Compact machinery mining provides components but can be challenging to locate. Trading with traders offers components, but guarantees aren't guaranteed. Ship chunks yield 5-6 components and 20 steel per piece. Mech clusters contain components in their destroyed buildings. Ancient dangers provide components when awakened from cryosleep
White, deliquescent powder with pH 11.6. Melting point 899°C, density 2.29 g/cm³. Soluble in water with solubility ranging from 105.5 to 155.7 g/100g. Decomposes with CO2 loss when heated
Ammonia is a colourless, pungent gas composed of nitrogen and hydrogen. Boiling point is −33.35 °C, freezing point is −77.7 °C. Has trigonal pyramidal shape with strong hydrogen bonding. Lower dielectric constant than water, better solvent for organic materials
Caprolactam is a colorless solid with formula (CH2)5C(O)NH. Global demand is approximately five million tons per year. Used primarily in making Nylon 6 filament and plastics
Fiberglass is a fiber-reinforced plastic made from glass fibers. Fibers can be arranged randomly, flattened, or woven into cloth. Plastic matrix can be thermoset or thermoplastic
