What 𭷉 means
Use the code-point escape \u{2DDC9}.
U2DDC9 lies beyond UFFFF, so UTF-16 represents it with a surrogate pair. Software that slices strings one 16-bit unit at a time can split that pair.
Where is 𭷉 recorded?
Its record spans a Ming-era dictionary and digital Buddhist texts.
A Ming-era copy of 合併字學篇韻便覽, a Chinese character-and-rhyme dictionary, lists 𭷉 among entries under the 片 radical. The SAT project later proposed unencoded characters from its digital Taishō Buddhist canon for Unicode 10.0, preserving the printed text in electronic form.
The SAT Unicode 10.0 character list warns that browsers without support for its webfont may not display the glyph.
Does 𭷉 mean “split”?
The related form offers a clue, not a confirmed reading.
Chinese character data links 𭷉 structurally to 㭊. A Qing-era Chinese dictionary records 㭊 as a written form of 析, “to split or divide.” That makes 㭊 a useful comparison, not an interchangeable spelling for 𭷉.

1Why does 𭷉 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
