Potential [[feedstock]] materials for [[gem-gum factories]]. <br>
+
These could come packaged in microcapsules changing their profile in likelihood of and damage by spills strongly.
+
 
+
== Special cases ==
+
 
+
* [[Acetylene]] – of particular interest due to it's [[low hydrogen content]].
+
* [[Methane]] – a bit much hydrogen. This will mostly be burned to water.
+
* [[Ethanol]] – big molecule – lots of disassembly needed.
+
* [[Carbon Disulfide]] CS<sub>2</sub> – not environment friendly – water free solvent
+
 
+
== Volatile elements right from the air ==
+
 
+
* [[Carbon dioxide]] CO<sub>2</sub> – as a source for carbon (energy devoid)
+
* [[Nitrogen]] N<sub>2</sub> – (energy devoid)
+
* [[Oxygen]] O<sub>2</sub>
+
* [[Water]] H<sub>2</sub>O – as source for hydrogen (energy devoid)
+
* [[Argon]] – not really a building material but super abundant useful for [[Gem-gum balloon products|stabilizing structures by pressurization]].
+
 
+
== Mundane nontoxic salts ==
+
 
+
* [[Salts of carbonic acid]]
+
* [[Salts of nitric acid]]
+
-----
+
* [[Salts of silicic acid]] – silicates don't like to be in solution - only with sodium or potassium this works halfway decent (sodium and potassium salts don't like to be unsoluble)
+
* [[Salts of phosphoric acid]] – phosporic acid is quite mundane (is uses in food) – many other phosphor compounds  can be quite toxic
+
* [[Salts of sulphuric acid]] – mundane
+
-----
+
* [[Table Salt]] NaCl
+
 
+
The alkali elements in there (Na,K) that are just added to keep the solution PH neutral (not acidic) are less useful for structural materials.
+
They do not like to form strong directed covalent bonds as they are needed in strong structural high performance materials.
+
So they may remain largely unused. Remnant lye (NaOH, KOH) can be neutralized with actively collected atmospheric CO2.
+
 
+
== More toxic salts ==
+
 
+
* [[Salts of boric acid]]
+
* [[Sodium aluminates]] – There is no aluminic acid – just as slilicon aluminium hates to go into solution
+
 
+
== Other mundane small molecules that could serve as resource carrieres ==
+
 
+
* [[Urea]] – highly inert and nontoxic nitrogen carriere
+
* [[Dimethyl sulfide]] – sulfur carrier – strong smell (smell of the sea in low doses)
+
