Accellerite

Accellerite was a chemical used in the creation of explosives. In the Battle of Corellia during the Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire, a group of Sith siphoned accellerite from one of the chemical plants in the Labor Valley region on the planet Corellia for use in their chemical bomb. Core bombs were a type of explosive that used accellerite and magnopium ferrocongregate as its main components, and the Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn was able to locate a core bomb aboard the luxury cruiser Aurorient Express by scanning for traces of the two chemicals. Core bombs also saw use during the era of the Galactic Civil War between the Galactic Empire and Rebel Alliance. However, accellerite also had medical applications, as the xenopathologist Archiban Frodrick Kimble used a combination of accellerite, ardanium, and cyanogen silicate as well as other compounds to cure a rare flesh-eating disease.
