Meaning and Description

The Radioactive emoji "", depicts a small black and yellow symbol. It features three yellow triangles arranged in a circular pattern, with the tips pointing inward, which serves as a visual warning of potential radiation danger.

The radioactive emoji goes by other names like the radiation sign, nuclear emoji, and Ionizing radiation symbol, all be used to convey the concept of radioactivity or radiation hazards. It is often associated with nuclear power, radioactive materials, or areas that require caution due to potential radiation exposure.

In real life, you'll find radioactive signage on nuclear power facilities, radioactive storage sites, medical radiology labs, and anywhere housing hazardous radioactive material. The emoji is a digital representation of this environmental caution symbol.

On social media, the radioactive emoji is often used in a tongue-in-cheek way to signal someone is “glowing” or looking hot and spicy! People also use it humorously to indicate they’re wild, chaotic or “off the rails.” It can also be used metaphorically to represent something harmful or toxic. So if you see it, don't take it too seriously!

Did you know that 🤓 this symbol was first created in 1946 by a team at the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory, University of California, aiming for a clear, effective radiation hazard warning. It's now globally used as the standard radiation caution sign, mandated by law and guided by standard bodies. Plus, you'll find it in areas beyond radiation, like pop culture, art, music, and fashion! Isn't this COOL?!

Wikipedia: Hazard symbol
Hazard symbols or warning symbols are recognisable symbols designed to warn about hazardous or dangerous materials, locations, or objects, including electric currents, poisons, and radioactivity. The use of hazard symbols is often regulated by law and directed by standards organizations. Hazard symbols may appear with different colors, backgrounds, borders, and supplemental information in order to specify the type of hazard and the level of threat (for example, toxicity classes). Warning symbols are used in many places in lieu of or addition to written warnings as they are quickly recognized (faster than reading a written warning) and more commonly understood (the same symbol can be recognized as having the same meaning to speakers of different languages). 🔗 Hazard symbol
