Silicon's atomic number is 14 and its symbol is Si. Silicon is an essential compound in the semiconductor industry. This sample happens to be 99.995% pure silicon. The squares you see in the computer chip are doping material only a few atoms thick making this one of the purest samples you can easily find.
Although silicon does not have a major role in animals, silicon structures are excreted by various sea sponges and microorganisms. It is also contained in various plant tissues. Silicon oxide or “silica” has been discovered in Egyptian-made glass dating back to 1500 BC. Silica is one of the best-researched compounds second only to water. Twelve different crystal forms of silica exist including jasper, onyx, flint, opal, and quartz. Silicon is the second most abundant element in the earth's crust behind oxygen. Silicon makes up a total of approximately 27% of the earth's crust by weight.

Safety

We get asked about the radioactivity and overall safety of the periodic tables/cubes from time to time. These are legitimate concerns and we wanted to address those concerns here. Although there are several elements in the cubes that are dangerous or toxic, the acrylic and glass ampules make the products safe to handle and store.

The average American is exposed to 0.034 mrem/hr from background radiation (300 mrem/year). In other words, a person will get three times the radiation from natural background radiation which includes the sun, food, radon, and the environment, than they will from holding a radioactive element in one of our Lucite Acrylic displays.

Care Instructions

Wash with mild soap or detergent and lukewarm water. Use a clean, soft cloth, or sponge. Rinse and blot dry with a damp cloth or chamois.

*Never use abrasive cleaners, household cleaners, window-cleaning fluids, scouring compounds, gritty cloths, or strong solvents such as alcohol, acetone, carbon tetrachloride, etc.*

To maintain the brilliant luster of acrylic, wax and occasionally with a quality grade of automobile paste wax (NOT A CLEANER WAX COMBINATION.) Apply a thin coat with a clean, cotton flannel cloth. Then wipe with a clean damp cloth. NEVER USE HOUSEHOLD SPRAY WAXES.

Proudly made in the U.S.A.
