* Upon eating a meal which uses {{plain name}} as an ingredient, the player will either gain a permanent +1 to their {{AV}}[[AV]], or they will [[Instant death|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 {{favilink|glass bottle}} or a {{favilink|phial}}. However, note that a container shattering is similar to a distant pour, so it will explode if it lands on another liquid, the ground, or drips off the creature that it was poured on.

Other containers, like {{favilink|glass bottle|plural}}, 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, {{Plain name}} 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 {{favilink|warm static}} instead.
