Food ingredient corn starch
Like many products in dust form, it can be hazardous in large quantities due to its flammability—see dust explosion. When mixed with a fluid, corn starch can rearrange itself into a non-Newtonian fluid. For example, adding water transforms corn starch into a material commonly known as oobleck while adding oil transforms corn starch into an electrorheological (ER) fluid. The concept can be explained through the mixture termed "cornflour slime".
It is usually used in culinary and medical, so it includes food grade and medical grade. The packaging of corn starch is 25kg/bag, and one full container load can hold around 19mt.
