Neutronium
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Neutronium is a type of material used by the Imperium[1] and the Necrons.[2]
Description
Considered to be the hardest substance known to the Imperium, Neutronium is used in the hulls of Imperial voidships. Most notably, it is found at the front of a spaceship, where a bit is mounted, which is used to ram through the hull-armour of an enemy vessel during a boarding manoeuvre.[1]
Necrons lace filaments of Neutronium into a globe at the hilt of a closed combat weapon to focus nearly half the weapon's weight onto a single point, allowing for unexpected strikes with the pommel.[2]
