1 year ago Regian Element Septunseptium (Sus) is the name for 717th element. Tolyabium is also taken for element 228
By the way zalgo is going to use an incredibly painful material called sentient metal for one of the final tier parts, its going to be extremely painful but I dont know what the exact process will be yet I think having stuff from the island of stability can be cool tho
Details
It seems that for every machine tier, there is a circuit tier, glass tier, and a material (for example, stainless steel for HV) for each tier. It seems that after UHV (which takes adamantium, orichalcum, and vibranium) there is no material for UEV, UIV, UXV, OpV, or MAX. I'm not sure if there is a plan yet for these tiers but I will suggest my own.
Effects
It seems that materials in GregTech either come from the periodic table or from popular shows such as Star Trek (where naquadah came from). So I will follow a similar pattern.
Fictional Elements:
Mithril - Possibly stronger than Tritanium (From thermal expansion :trollface: ) Enderium, Signalum, Lumium (The gregtech version should be funnier to make than the thermal foundation version) Uridium - Used in sensors Trevium - Used in emitters Trilithium - "a nuclear inhibitor which could stop all fusion within a star by way of quantum implosion" Regian Element

Real Stuff:
Any Elements Ranging from Fermium (101) - Oganesson (118)
However, unlike in older versions of gregtech, these elements wouldn't be made from a normal fusion reactor, but are made more carefully in collision chambers (I heard they are an upcoming feature in gregtech). Most of these elements have a half life below 1 second so extra steps will needed to be taken to extend their half life. One possible method of doing this might be by making metastable "nuclear isomers": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_isomer
Extended Periodic Table Elements: Ununennium (119) - Unoctquadium (184)
Similarly they will be made in collision chambers. They are even more unstable than elements 101-118. However they have quite a few interesting properties that might make them useful: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_periodic_table#Predicted_properties_of_eighth-period_elements

Another thing we could do is just copy stuff from GCYL:
For use in superconductors:
Rhenium Hassium Thallium Isophtaloylbisdiethylthiourea Hexafluorophosphate Legendarium Actinium Superhydride Lanthanum Fullerene Nanotubes Charged Caesium Cerium Cobalt Indium Superheavy-H and Superheavy-L Alloys Borocarbide Proto-Adamantium Fullerene Superconductor B.E.T.S. Perrhenate Strontium Superconductor Quantum Alloy TBCCO
Sensors: Lead Selenide, Barium Strontium Titanate, Lead Scandium Tantalate, Magnetorestrictive Alloy, Liquid Crystal Detector Emitters: Zinc Selenide, Fluorescein, Stilbene, Francium Caesium Cadmium Bromide, Rhodamine B, Lepton Trap Crystal
Misc:
Didymium Glass - Typically made of 46% Lanthanum, 34% Neodymium, 11% Praseodymium, with the remainder being Samarium and Gadolinium
