Overview

Liquid Carbon is the molten form of carbon, produced by heating solid carbon materials to extreme temperatures. It can be obtained by heating Refined Carbon to 4329.85 °C or Diamond to 3929.85 °C, both listed as the material’s melting point plus 3 °C.

Because of the enormous temperatures involved, Liquid Carbon is not a normal processing intermediate and is only relevant in setups that can sustain very high heat. Its existence is mainly tied to the thermal behavior of carbon-based solids, especially Refined Carbon, which itself is known for having the highest melting point of any solid material and for being usable as a heat-resistant wall material when created as natural debris.

In practical play, the main point of Liquid Carbon is its conversion threshold:

  • Refined Carbon melts into Liquid Carbon at 4329.85 °C.
  • Diamond melts into Liquid Carbon at 3929.85 °C.
  • Both values are 3 °C above the material’s melting point.

The source material does not provide additional handling, storage, or industrial uses for Liquid Carbon beyond its production conditions.
