OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
  • Intent: To create a fuel for further Use in weaponry, machinery, vehicles, etc
  • Image Source: N/A
  • Permissions: N/A
  • Primary Source: [X]
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS
  • Classification: Gas[natural state] or liquid [pressurized state]
  • Weight: Heavy
  • Color: Mustard yellow
  • Resistances:
    • Energy (And other Blaster type weapons): None
    • Kinetic: None
    • Lightsabers: None
    • Heat: None
    • Cold: Very High
    • EMP: Very High
    • Other (unspecified): Average
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Very good burning efficiency: Noxinium B has a very good burning efficiency, meaning that it is capable of granting large amounts of thermal energy with just the slightest whiff of the gas being used, allowing for a better ratio of amount of fuel-Thermal energy output than for instance the more common tibanna gas.
STRENGTHS
  • Reliable fuel efficiency: Though usually fuel efficiency is attributed to the engines or reactors which utilize the fuel, in this case it can be stated that due to the good burning efficiency of the compound itself, it can increase the overall output of engines and their overall fuel efficiency on its own, making this a very reliable replacement for some of the more rare and harder to obtain fuelsources in the galaxy.
WEAKNESSES
  • Prone to explode: Any sufficiently high heatsource of a thermal nature may cause the fuel to instantly and abruptly explode, unleashing large amounts of thermal energy. It is thus advised to keep the gas in liquid pressurized form when stored or to safely shield the container in which it is placed.
  • Toxic: Though Noxinium B is not as toxic or as poisonous as it's original metal compound or its more military counterparts, it is still not safe to be handled without protective gear or some meassures to ensure the safety of the people working with it. This is especially obvious in its gaseous form, in which it can cause anything from shortness of breath to death in the most severe cases. Caution is thus always advised when using Noxinium B.
DESCRIPTION
Noxinium B is discovered as a leftover result from the burning of the Infinium 01458 alloy inside reactors where it would be used as a fusion material. Though at first, it was just believed to be a wasted byproduct, tests concluded during the engineering of the company's own fusion reactors lead to show that it was highly flammable. Thus under the protocols of the N&Z umbrella Corporation to find a use for everything they create, including the waste or byproduct of other designs, tests were made to see what uses there could be for this particular byproduct.

Though at first glance the byproduct was nothing more than a toxic gas with mostly uses in military applications, it was discovered that by changing the ratio between the mercurychloride and the mercuryhydride, a safer and more efficient burning process was available. This discovery lead to more tests which included trying to run a few of the company's own designed engines and more primitive reactors on this newly dubbed Noxinium B. These tests at the very least made it apparent that this newly discovered byproduct was a very efficient fuel efficient substance.

Something that is pressurized will actually have an increased chance to explode. Namely due to the process of pressurization making the gas substance having a much larger collection. Things such as Oxygen tanks explode due to the gas being released, and then a spark igniting the escaping gas.

With this substance being extremely flammable due to having a higher thermionic energy output, simply piercing whatever it is being contained in would cause it to explode. Even if used in a blaster weapon, the casing for which holds the gas, should it rupture, be subject to this as well.

So I am not sure where you are getting the strength of it being a "Safe Storage." While yes having durable containment would be able to negate some of the potential for an explosion, the gas itself is not safe at all in a pressurized environment. This special feature and strength of being resistant to other blaster weaponry, which is thermal, and would set off other forms of Blaster gas, is almost downright incorrect.

If you have evidence other than "handwavium" that this would be so true, then please present it, and link it within the submission. Also, provide this context within the submission itself.

Nope, I actually didn't think beyond the idea of liquid gas itself usually being less flammable except when it is 'spritzed' into an oxygen mixture (like benzine, diesel, etc), so I removed the safe storage stuff and all.
