Quartz can conduct heat, and is capable of conducting electricity, as long as the pressure of the quartz crosses the <14 threshold. {{Material|mat=PHOT}} can pass through, which may convert the inputted {{Material|mat=PHOT}} into the colour of the visible spectrum (excluding the different shades of the rainbow, and the colour black).

Reactions

Quartz can conduct heat, and is capable of conducting electricity under certain conditions. QRTZ only conducts if it is colder than -100°C, or if the pressure around it is greater than 8. It can only receive SPRK from NSCN, METL, or PSCN.

Photons (PHOT) can pass through QRTZ, but are scattered in random directions. White photons will change into a random colour when they enter QRTZ. Most photons are deleted after a short delay, but the countdown until this happens is suspended while photons are in QRTZ.

QRTZ conducts heat much more slowly than other particles. Because of the way heat conduction currently works, this means that heat conduction will occur in random bursts, a few QRTZ particles at a time, and QRTZ will not melt instantly when its highest possible temperature has been reached.

QRTZ will grow after absorbing SLTW.

QRTZ breaks into PQRT when the pressure changes too rapidly. Its resistance to changes in pressure scales with temperature - at -273.15°C it will be broken by any pressure change at all, even the slight breeze from a DUST particle falling nearby.

Examples

This save shows off how QRTZ can be made to conduct electricity using pressure.
This save shows off a type of art (which, I don't know what it's meant to be yet) which shows how QRTZ can be grown by its ctype or with SLTW.
This save shows off how QRTZ's colours can be changed due to its tmp.
