Radioactivity is a game mechanic in MineChem. Basically, Elements with chemical number of 83+ will be on a timer. Once it expires, the player who held it (or opened the container with them) receives damage depending on the "tier". Afterwards, the element would turn into one with lower chemical number (i.e. Np --> U). The player may be killed from this effect.
