"Erumpent horns, tails, and the Exploding Fluid are all used in potions, though classified Class B Tradeable Materials."
Newton Scamander, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Exploding Fluid was a magical substance found in the horn of the Erumpent. It caused anything that was impregnated with it to explode. It was highly valued as a potion ingredient, and was listed as a Class B Tradeable Material.[1]

History[]

On 30 December 1997, an Erumpent horn in the Lovegood House was struck by a stray Stunning Spell cast by Xenophilius Lovegood aimed the trio, whilst his house was being ambushed by Death Eaters. This caused the fluid inside to explode, causing significant damage to the dwelling.[2]
