Usually parameters reproduce the value, and the template adds the SI unit or additional standard text. While the topic is technical, we can strive to make the result readable text, and even verbose. For example, this is why the template writes "(at 0 °C)".
Scandium is a chemical element with the symbol Sc and atomic number 21. It is a silvery-white metallic d-block element. Historically, it has been classified as a rare-earth element, [9] together with yttrium and the lanthanides. It was discovered in 1879 by spectral analysis of the minerals euxenite and gadolinite from Scandinavia. [10]

Naturally occurring scandium (21 Sc) is composed of one stable isotope, 45 Sc. Twenty-seven radioisotopes have been characterized, with the most stable being 46 Sc with a half-life of 83.8 days, 47 Sc with a half-life of 3.35 days, and 48 Sc with a half-life of 43.7 hours and 44 Sc with a half-life of 3.97 hours.
Scandium-44 (44 Sc) is a radioactive isotope of scandium that decays by positron emission to stable 44 Ca with a half-life of 4.042 hours. 44 Sc can be obtained as a daughter radionuclide of long-lived 44 Ti (t 1/2 60.4 a) from 44 Ti / 44 Sc generator or can be produced by nuclear reaction 44 Ca ( p, n) 44 Sc in small cyclotrons.

Aluminium–scandium alloys (AlSc) are aluminum alloys that consist largely of aluminium (Al) and traces of scandium (Sc) as the main alloying elements.In principle, aluminium alloys strengthened with additions of scandium are very similar to traditional nickel-base superalloys in that both are strengthened by coherent, coarsening resistant precipitates with an ordered L1 2 structure.
