About
The character "氯" was created in the modern era to represent the element chlorine, formed by combining the gas radical "气" with the phonetic component "录" to approximate the sound of the first syllable of "chlorine". In its traditional counterpart, the gas radical is written as "氣", but the fundamental structure of a semantic indicator paired with a phonetic loan remains the same. Since its conception, the character has exclusively denoted the chemical element chlorine, with no broadening or alteration of its meaning.
