Ununquadium is a radioactive chemical element classified among the transactinides on the periodic table of elements. It is one of the heaviest elements known to man, and it cannot be found in nature; ununquadium must be synthetically produced in the lab for scientists who wish to study it. This element is also extremely short-lived, rapidly decaying into more stable elements, typically within seconds of being synthesized. As with other elements in this situation, ununquadium has no current commercial uses, and this is unlikely to change, as even if stable isotopes can be produced, they will be extremely expensive and thus not terribly practical.
