Not much is known regarding the true nature of Phazon as a material substance. It is highly radioactive, corrosive, and biologically toxic, and has even demonstrated low-level sentience. It has been used extensively by the [[Space Pirate]]s for its effective mutagenic properties, of which they have used for mutating their species' (as well as many others) own genetic structure, to produce more powerful and even monstrous versions of themselves and others. Though it does increase power and aggression, it does decrease the bio-form's life span, as it deteriates the cell's structure, in addition to changing the genetic code. During the course of Samus's visit to [[Phaaze]], the Phazon inside of her even affected her genetic structure to the point where her ship's bio-scanners could not even recognize her. | Not much is known regarding the true nature of Phazon as a material substance.

This would originally be used as an external source of firepower to Federation Troops, but as for Samus and the other members introduced in Metroid Prime 3, the phazon constantly grew inside of them, therefore allowing them to essentially have an unlimited source of extra firepower. | ||
