Utility
Plastic sheets
The main use for plastic sheets is making large water bottles - these are functionally identical to large beakers.
- Add 30 units each of Welding Fuel, Carbon and Hydrogen to a large beaker.
- This combines into Oil. Discard 10 units.
- Separate 30 units of Oil, then heat the bottle to 1000* Kelvin until it turns to Ash.
- To the remaining Oil, add 10 units Sodium/Water/Chlorine each.
- Now, heat the resulting Oil/Table Salt mix to roughly 420°K.
- Set the Ash bottle to use 5u amounts and repeatedly use it on the heated Oil/Salt mix.
- You now have enough Plastic sheets to make a lot of large bottles!
Metal foam grenade
While not as elegant as smart foam, this one is great for dealing with AI turrets and containing Critter outbreaks.
- Make enough Fluorosulfuric Acid and Foaming Agent that you end up with 30u each.
- Fill beaker A with 90 units of Iron and insert into the grenade casing.
- Put 30u of Fluorosulfuric Acid and Foaming Agent each into beaker B and finish up the grenade.
'Fun'
Carpet smoke grenade
Want to spruce up the station? Start throwing these grenades everywhere. Same range as the foam version, but doesn't slip people.
- Make 50 units of Space Drugs, 50u of Fluorosurfactant and extract 50u of Blood from someone.
- Beaker A: 50u Fluorosurfactant, 50u Space Drugs.
- Beaker B: 50u Water, 50u Blood.
