What elements was used to make the arc reactor in Iron Man?

Answer 1

Palladium (pd46) it can absorb up to 900x its own weight in hydrogen,

copper, (cu26) though it should have been silver (better conductor)

(hydrogen, copper, palladium, and ??, would need to ask tony stark himself)

Answer 2

In the new Iron Man movie, Iron Man 2, tony Stark created a new element. The name of this new element was Palladium.

No, an element in the miniature arc reactor he built first (that he had at the start of Iron Man 2) was Palladium (Pd) and it was rapidly increasing his blood toxicity and would eventually have killed him. When he met Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), Agent Romanov injected him with Lithium Dioxide which subsided the Palladium 'poisoning', this didn't quite solve his problem. He needed a replacement for the Palladium which would not eventually kill him. Later, after an epiphany, you saw him building a large tube that goes around in a circle, this (i think) is a Proton Accelerator which is essential to creating new elements. Somehow he created a new element in what you see, i don't quite know, I'm only 14. This new element was an exceptional substitute for the life-threatening Palladium and it also won't kill him.

I don't know what element Iron Man created but i believe it is fictional and not on the periodic table (unlike Palladium). He may have created Vibranium - an element in Captain America's shield (as seen, unfinished, in the movie). This is unlikely as Vibranium is found only in Wakanda, according to the comics.

He may have created Adamantium, the primary element injected into Wolverine.

The element is a 'heavy metal' which means if you ingest it it will never (ever) leave your system. Other 'heavy metals' are Lead and etc.

Keep up your science study.

Just looked up something: In the Iron Man 2 Novel (released in April 2010) "Stark, discovering this new, powerful element. Stark thought to himself, since it absorbs vibrations I should call it Vibranium." This contradicts what i said before but is the best source of info i have.

Correction: He did not create Adamantium, since Adamantium itself is an vibranium/iron alloy. My best guess would also be vibranium. Wakanda is the only KNOWN place that has vibranium and even that in the form of vibranium ore that fell in Wakanda as a meteorite.

There are also other materials, some of them purely magic, like the surf of Silver Surfer or Mjolnir, hammer of Thor.

Answer 3

a new composition that does not poison...new element short answer
