Colourless and odourless, its behaviour is unlike that of any other known compound. While most shrink when they freeze, this stuff expands. It’s very hard to be heated up but once turned into liquid, it’s extremely resistant to pressure.
Exposure to it in any form can be fatal. Its liquid form is responsible for dozens of deaths each year in the UAE.
