Using the material reducer opens an interface of 10 [[Minecraft:inventory]] slots. The central slot at the top is the input, where blocks can be placed in order to break them down into their component parts. When this happens, the output slots fill up with the percentage of [[Minecraft:element]]s found in the broken down material. | Using the material reducer opens an interface of 10 [[Minecraft:inventory]] slots.

Certain blocks such as | Certain blocks such as soul sand and [[Minecraft:netherrack]] contain mysterious elements yet to be discovered. These are represented by an unknown element that displays as other elements, but with a question mark in place of a periodic table symbol. If you take out a few elements, but keep some in too, then the block you placed will have the missing model item, which you cannot place in the inventory. | ||
When an element is taken from one of the output slots, the input slot gets cleared, and if there are elements in other output slots, the input slot becomes red and does not accept further input until all of the outputs are cleared. | When an element is taken from one of the output slots, the input slot gets cleared, and if there are elements in other output slots, the input slot becomes red and does not accept further input until all of the outputs are cleared. | ||

Template:Message boxTemplate:Article other Template:Infobox block The material reducer is a Minecraft:block used in chemistry to learn about the natural world, by reducing Minecraft blocks to their component Minecraft:elements.
Obtaining
Material reducers can be obtained from the Minecraft:Creative inventory. They cannot be obtained in Survival without Minecraft:commands. in Template:Editions, the world must also have the "Education Edition" setting enabled.
Breaking
A material reducer can be mined with any tool, but Minecraft:pickaxes are faster.
Script error: No such module "breaking row".
Usage
Using the material reducer opens an interface of 10 Minecraft:inventory slots. The central slot at the top is the input, where blocks can be placed in order to break them down into their component parts. When this happens, the output slots fill up with the percentage of Minecraft:elements found in the broken down material.
Certain blocks such as soul sand and Minecraft:netherrack contain mysterious elements yet to be discovered. These are represented by an unknown element that displays as other elements, but with a question mark in place of a periodic table symbol. If you take out a few elements, but keep some in too, then the block you placed will have the missing model item, which you cannot place in the inventory.
When an element is taken from one of the output slots, the input slot gets cleared, and if there are elements in other output slots, the input slot becomes red and does not accept further input until all of the outputs are cleared.
Any block broken down in the material reducer gives out 100 different elements.

The formula mirrors the chemical compositions of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, the three main components of wood. |
|
Template:Redr x15
Template:Redr x70
|
These four elements are found in all life forms on Earth. |

The results depict dirt as a mixture of inorganic rocks and decaying organic material, although there is too little oxygen to form the compounds found in real-life dirt such as calcium carbonate. |

The results approximate SiO2, the chemical formula for silicon dioxide, the mineral quartz. Silicon and oxygen are the primary atomic elements of silicate minerals. Many of these real life rocks are composed of silicate minerals, not just SiO2. |
|
Template:Redr x47
Template:Redr x28
|
These elements are all commonly found in silicate minerals. The abundances of these elements are the average composition of earth's crust and close to the average composition of real life Andesite |
|

|
Similar to regular cobblestone. Mossy cobblestone has carbon to account for the moss. |
|
Template:Redr x77
Template:Redr x17
|
These results reflect the formulae of many real-life clays, although real-life clay contains much more oxygen. |
|
Template:Redr x67
Template:Redr x33 |
The results approximate H2O, the chemical formula for water. |
|
Template:Redr x50
Template:Redr x43
|
The results mirror the composition of coal, although real-life coal contains much less oxygen. |
|
Template:Redr x64
Template:Redr x12
Template:Redr x24 |
A mixture of pure (elemental) iron and silicate rock. In real life, iron ore usually contains oxidized iron, so the formula would contain much more oxygen. |
|
Template:Redr x64
Template:Redr x12
Template:Redr x24 |
A mixture of pure gold and silicate rock. As gold is chemically inert, it is always naturally found in its elemental form. |
|
Template:Redr x64
Template:Redr x12
Template:Redr x24 |
A mixture of pure carbon and silicate rock. Diamond is composed of pure carbon, and takes billions of years to form deep underground. |
|

The formula roughly corresponds to lazurite, the main component of lapis lazuli. |
|
Template:Redr x31
Template:Redr x31
Template:Redr x38 |
The formula implies that Redstone is made out of uranium methanide and an unknown element, thus it is radioactive. |
|
Template:Redr x15
Template:Redr x25
Template:Redr x20
Template:Redr x40 |
The formula roughly corresponds to beryl, the main component of emerald. |
|
Template:Redr x100 |
The results mirror the composition of 100% pure iron. |
|
Template:Redr x100 |
The results mirror the composition of 100% pure gold. |
|
Template:Redr x100 |
The results mirror the composition of 100% pure diamond. |
|
Template:Redr x64
Template:Redr x18

|
A mixture of silicate rock and mercury. Mercury(II) oxide (HgO) is red to orange in color, although these results contain too little oxygen for any of this compound to form. |
|
Template:Redr x59
Template:Redr x13
Template:Redr x28 |
The approximate formula is Si4C. Although, it is similar to the mineral SiC (carborundum). |

These three gases are noble gases, which are commonly used in neon lights to produce vibrant colors. |
|
Template:Redr x37
Template:Redr x60 |
Soul sand is mostly composed of an unknown element, due to its paranormal composition. |
|
|
This formula roughly corresponds to Iron (II) sulfate, an inorganic dark dye, which is not found in any species of real-life squid. |
|
Template:Redr x12
|
The results approximate C6H12O6, the chemical formula for a simple sugar. |
|
|
The results approximate C7H4O, the chemical formula for charcoal. |
Note that amethyst-related blocks and items, copper-related blocks and items, mud, coarse dirt, raw ore blocks and items, deepslate ores, iron, gold, and diamond equipment, doors, and trapdoors cannot be put into a material reducer, despite them being related to blocks that can.
All compounds that can be made in the compound creator and lab table can also be reduced in the material reducer, yielding their respective ingredients.

Script error: No such module "Issue list".
Trivia
- There is currently a glitch in the material reducer's GUI: When the input slot becomes red, the "tubes" that are connected to it are sometimes rendered over the red square, which causes the image to flick between the normal square and the tubes.
