This is a list of all the materials that have been modded for the game, up to the point of the date in the thread title. Custom refraction indices can be found in the second post of this thread; if one of these is required for a material this will be noted in the description. Please message me or post here for additions, updates or corrections. If you have any questions I will try to answer them, but unless it's one of my own mods it would be best to ask the original creator first. Under the name of each mod I've provided a link to the post whence it originated.
A basic modding guide explaining how to use the codes provided below is available here: childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/25586

Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Aniline
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1724

Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Benzene
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1665
Precursor to many oil-based products. Rather than being processed further, it can be employed as-is quite costeffectively. It's cheaper than RP-1 with similar combustion performance, but is worse in thermal rockets.
Custom refractive index is optional; see second post below.
Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt

Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Caesium (as combustion fuel)
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/27274/thread

Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt

Dicyanoacetylene & Ozone
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/771
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/36153/thread
Available individually or combined in combustion rockets to produce the hottest known adiabatic flame.
See also a standalone ozone below by Fgdfgfthgr with different data.
Dioxygen Difluoride

Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Chemical reactions for other mods:
Ethyne
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/20260/thread
Better known as acetylene. Very energy-dense, but unstable if not kept under pressure. This instability does, on the other hand, make it an excellent monopropellant.
Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Gallium
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1697
A metal of medium density with a very low melting point; a good alternative to mercury in high thrust plasma engines. It can also be burnt in combustion rockets, where it performs reasonably, just beware the giant purple/pink flame.

Data\Materials\Ceramics.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Hexadecane & Icosane
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1163
A pair of higher alkanes than available in the base game, continuing the progression from the 12 carbons in RP-1 up to 16 and 20.
Hydrogen Cyanide
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/893
Higher exhaust velocity than hydrogen fluoride and peroxide in thermal rockets, but still no notable properties.
Hydrogen Sulfide
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1688
Readily acquired and easily ignited, SH2 makes a surprisingly poor propellant despite its hydrogen content, but is fairly cheap and would be very accessible at certain locations such as Io.
Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Iodine
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1690
Iodine is sometimes used as a propellent for ion engines.
Data\Materials\Ions.txt
Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Liquid Aluminum
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1478
Aluminum is about the highest melting metal that would be reasonable to use as a propellant. Relatively low cost and good density make it fairly reasonable where minimal tank size is desired.
Liquid Lithium
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/9879/thread | childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/20978/thread | childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/23341/thread
Notable for performance in MPDTs and tripropellant rockets. Also a highly moderative reactor coolant. The complete suite includes liquid lithium by itself as well as bipropellant and tripropellant-emulating combustion reactions, plus their dissociation products which are also useful in themselves. The project has attracted a relatively large number of contributions over time; thanks to someusername6 and apophys.
Data\Materials\Ions.txt
Data\Materials\Fluids.txt
Liquid Silicon
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/27468/thread
Silicon has the unusual property of getting denser when melted, however the very high melting point makes it better suited to use in solid rockets, but those aren't available in CDE.

childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/893
Effective biofuels that may be more readily produced in an economy different to CDE's setting.
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Data\Materials\Fluids.txt

childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/27258/thread
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29090/thread
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29246/thread
This is by far the most costeffective metal propellant due to sodium's low cost, and it produces an attractive gold flame.
Data\Materials\Ceramics.txt
Data\ChemicalReactions.txt
Superheavy Water
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1188
Also known as tritiated water, this is to heavy water what that is to normal water. It is radioactive, but decays slowly enough to be useful.
Ions.txt
Fluids.txt
Tetrachloromethane
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1794
A refrigerant fluid. No notable ingame uses, though it is a combustion product of reactions with chlorine, opening more options for chlorine as a propellant ingame.

Coolants
Lead Bismuth
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29769/thread
Similar to liquid lead; more costly but nontoxic.
Lead-Bismuth Eutectic
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/21478/thread

A solder predominantly formed of lead, with tin lowering the melting point.
Lead Indium
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29769/thread
Considerable for similar reasons as lead, mercury, and bismuth, but lower availability makes it very expensive.
Liquid Lead
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/25415/thread
Lead is very cheap, dense, and easily melted for use as coolant. Works best, however, as an alternative to mercury for high thrust plasma engines.
Lead Lithium

Zubrin NSWR [note: may be bugged - use at own risk]
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/19177/thread
Dr. Zubrin's infamous nuclear salt water rocket is essentially a "continuously detonating Orion drive" ... which says it all, really. This type of rocket is especially interesting because of its relative feasability compared to fusion as a type of torchdrive. Ingame it works very simply through the combustion rocket module rather than being a kind of NTR.

The cheapest solid material available due to oxygen's abundance. Very low operating temperatures are required however.
Ice
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/15023/thread
Beyond the Ice Line there's no particular reason ships couldn't be armoured in their frozen water propellant, hence this.
See post in link above for alternate refractive index config (change the material's RefractiveIndex line from Water to Ice if you want to use this).
Low Thermal Conductivity Isostatically Pressed Graphite
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1680
This might offer a good laser and/or nuke defence that isn't some polymer abusing the ablation cap. Despite being crushed in all directions it has low density, too!

Wustite
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1678
An attempt at adding an extremely cheap solid material. Its properties are average all-round for a ceramic.
Zirconium Diboride
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1526
Good for high temp reactor control rods. Both zirconium and boron have large neutron cross-sections.
Zirconium Nitride
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/26173/thread

Fused Quartz Fiber
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/14393/thread
With an extreme yield strength of nearly 6 GPa, this glass fiber should make excellent kinetic armour, but thermal resistance is abysmal.
Silicon Carbide Fiber
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1715
A hard ceramic fiber with good resistance to shear forces and high temperatures.
Organics
Bakelite
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1887

childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/26188/thread
A gain medium similar to ruby.
Ce:LLF
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/729
Violet lasers without frequency doubling; wavelength can reach 77nm (extreme ultraviolet) with two doublers. However its melting point is low.
CTH:YAG
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/20411/thread
One of many lesser alternatives to Nd:YAG, efficient for reasons not modelled by the game.
Holmium:YAG
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/26965/thread
Has a single pumping band at shortwave infrared. Can produce turquoise beams with two doublers.
Thulium:YAG
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1685
Can produce turquoise beams with two doublers.
Beryllium Oxide / Magnesium / Silicon / Silicon Dioxide / Platinum Mirrors
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1173
These versions of certain vanilla materials include lasing damage thresholds. This property will be added while they are installed.

childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/481
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1681
Aluminum, Gold, Lead, Tin, and now Holmium. By your powers combined I am over 30% efficient!
Monatomic Arclamp Gases
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1685
A variety of normally diatomic gases that have been given monatomic versions so the game makes them available as arclamp gases.
Sapphire (stock replacement)
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1429
The addition of a lasing damage threshold to sapphire provides a usable alternative to diamond in arclamp enclosures.
Zinc Selenide
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1832
Optical material with high infrared transmittance in the range of 1.3–4.2µm.
Uses a custom refractive index; see second post below.
Magnets
Copper Nickel Iron
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29939/thread
Copper content increases conductivity. Cheap but low quality for ingame applications.
Gamma Prime Iron Nitride
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1223
Much cheaper than other magnets for its effectiveness as coilgun ammo.
Iron Cobalt Vanadium
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1627
A relatively cheap magnet with high saturation density suitable for coilgun armatures, with performance reasonably close to that of MMG.
Magnetic Metal Glasses
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29278/thread
Outstanding coilgun materials combining high strength, permeability, and flux density.
Nickel Iron
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1800
Similar to stock nickel iron molybdenum, this simpler alloy is cheaper and performs differently in coilguns but not definitively better or worse.
Platinum Cobalt
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1800
An unusual alloy that can be used both in coilguns and motors.

Nanomaterials
The capabilities of these materials go far beyond anything else in the game setting, and their bulk properties are as yet unknown in reality.
Carbon Nanotubes
Submitted by czigbot. There is actually a stock refraction index named Carbon Nanotube Forest if you want to switch it to that, but this is untested (no stock materials use it).
Carbyne
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29119/thread
Graphene (2D & two 3D versions)
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/849

Graphene Hybrid Nanotube Structures
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/29119/thread
Vantablack
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/post/20057/thread
Carbon nanotubes grown in such a way that they align to absorb >99% of incoming light. Apart from its exceptional optical properties, it also exhibits high strength, elasticity and thermal conductivity. Unlike other carbon nanomaterials, vantablack can actually be produced in appreciable quantities in reality. Use of the relevant refraction index is especially recommended for this; see second post.
Miscellaneous Materials
Though not strictly realistic due to implementation limitations, these materials are nonetheless useful for emulating technologies or manufacturing techniques unavailable in-game.
Compressed Tritium
childrenofadeadearth.boards.net/thread/1147
Representative of a pressurised gas vessel used to hold RTG fuel. Tritium is noteworthy as being extremely cheap, but the stock RTG modules requiring solid fuel preclude the stock version from use.

Notable for performance in MPDTs and tripropellant rockets. Also a highly moderative reactor coolant. The complete suite includes liquid lithium by itself as well as bipropellant and tripropellant-emulating combustion reactions, plus their dissociation products which are also useful in themselves. The project has attracted a relatively large number of contributions over time; thanks to someusername6 and apophys.

Dr. Zubrin's infamous nuclear salt water rocket is essentially a "continuously detonating Orion drive" ... which says it all, really. This type of rocket is especially interesting because of its relative feasability compared to fusion as a type of torchdrive. Ingame it works very simply through the combustion rocket module rather than being a kind of NTR.
