The usual practice is to embed a font that supports maths symbols in your application. Make sure the font you choose has all the symbols you need to use. DejaVu is one of the many freely available font families that support mathematical symbols. I am not sure if it supports chemical symbols as well. A guide to using embedded fonts is available here.

I'm not sure about Math and Chemical symbols, but you can display special characters by using a character’s numeric value 

i.e. © for copyright symbol

See flexexamples for an example: http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/08/02/using-special-characters-in-your-flex-applications/
