Compounds are a type of item used in chemistry, which are created from combinations of various elements.
Obtaining
Compounds cannot be obtained in the creative inventory. They are only obtained by creating them in the compound creator. This is done by inserting a certain number of elements corresponding to the compound's chemical formula.

Natural compounds
Natural compounds are compounds which can be obtained naturally in Minecraft.
| Icon | Compound | Chemical formula | Natural source | Method | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Charcoal | 74 | Log or Wood | Smelting | The chemical formula C7H4O is sometimes used to describe the approximate composition of charcoal. | |
| Ink Sac | 4 | Squid | Killing Squid | FeSO4 is the chemical formula of iron(II) sulfate or ferrous sulfate, normally found complexed with water as a salt with the formula FeSO4·xH2O, and has been used in the manufacture of iron gall ink and other inks for centuries. In contrast, squid ink (and other cephalopod inks) is composed mainly of melanin and mucus, with an assortment of other compounds in a variety of concentrations dependent on the species. | |
| Iron Ingot | Iron Ore | Smelting Iron Ore | Fe6 | ||
| Sugar | 6126 | Sugar Canes or Honey Bottles | Harvesting and crafting | C6H12O6 is the chemical formula of glucose and fructose, as well as a number of other simple sugars (common table sugar is instead sucrose, a complex sugar made of glucose and fructose with the chemical formula C12H22O11). | |
| Water | 2 | Water | Picking up in a bucket or glass bottle | One of the easiest to obtain. |
Garbage
Garbage (rubbish) is considered a "compound", but the only way to produce it is to activate the Lab Table when its inputs are an invalid recipe. It has no uses.
Usage
Certain compounds are used as ingredients in crafting or lab table experiments. Natural compounds have uses outside of chemistry, detailed in their respective articles.
