Neutron flux is an extremely volatile and rare liquid that can normally only be found inside a phial for sale.

Drinking neutron flux does not return any message.

Volatility

Neutron flux is a volatile liquid that, for most actions performed to it, will explode with a force of 15,000, causing 10d10+250260-350 (Avg: 305) damage to any creatures, items, or walls caught in the explosion. Dying from a neutron flux explosion will grant an achievement.

Will not cause an explosion

Pouring neutron flux into a powered magnetic bottle.
Pouring neutron flux from a powered magnetic bottle into a phial or an empty waxflab (note: waxflab will explode as soon as it generates a new dram of molten wax).
Using the collect liquid command on a container of neutron flux.

Will cause an explosion

Drinking neutron flux.
Pouring neutron flux onto a creature (instant death for the target).
Pouring neutron flux into a pool of any liquid (including itself)
Pouring neutron flux on the ground. Wishing for the liquid will also cause it to instantly explode.
Pouring neutron flux from any container other than a powered magnetic bottle into any container other than a powered magnetic bottle.
- This includes pouring from a phial into another phial.
Pouring neutron flux from a powered magnetic bottle into any container other than a phial or waxflab.
A magnetic bottle running out of charge or getting hit with EMP while containing neutron flux.
Pouring a liquid other than neutron flux into a container of neutron flux, if one somehow exists.
Being hit by a soupy sludge with a neutronic pseudopod (only possible on sludges encountered in the world in places like sultan cults rather than spawned from soup). This one in particular is instant death and not a high amount of damage.

Sources of Neutron flux

Rarely, high tier dromad traders, kippers, ichor merchants, and chefs will sell neutron flux.
The alchemist is guaranteed to have one dram of neutron flux for sale.
One vial is a possible reward from the Bey Lah questline.

Uses of Neutron Flux

Upon eating a meal which uses neutron flux as an ingredient, the player will either gain a permanent +1 to their AV, or they will instantly die. This is treated as a single cooking effect of "+1 AV Permanently. Small chance of Gravitational Collapse." (with the rate of failure being 10%), so the good and bad outcomes cannot be seperated out via making a Carbide Chef recipe.
Neutron flux can be used in a pinch as a very damaging thrown weapon if inside a fragile container like a phial. Other containers, like glass bottles, cannot safely hold flux and will instantly explode. Note that a container shattering is implemented as a distant pour.
At a commerce value of 1000 per dram, neutron flux is one the more valuable liquids by weight, and the third most valuable item by weight.

Trivia

Highly entropic beings used to require neutron flux as a Water Ritual liquid, but now ask for warm static instead.
