'''Adamantium''' is an advanced material.{{Fn|2}} It is perhaps the strongest material used by the [[Imperium]], impenetrable to most commonplace weapons.{{Fn|1}} Like [[Plasteel]], [[Armaplas|Armourplas]] and [[Synth|Synthleather]]leather, Adamantium is far more resilient than its archaic counterparts like steel, which are unable to resist advanced weaponry and are only used by primitive cultures.{{Fn|2}} Adamantine is, or can be made, corrosion resistant.{{Fn|3}}
Adamantium is used for all sorts of purposes by the Imperium.{{Fn|2}} For example, it is the material composing the [[Imperial Palace]]'s [[Eternity Gate (Imperial)|Eternity Gate]]{{Fn|1}}, and is often used in conjunction with [[plasteel]] and [[ceramite]], such as in the structure of [[Terminator Armour]].
