"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.[src]

Exploding Fluid is found in the horn of the Erumpent. It causes anything that is impregnated with it to explode. It is highly valued as a potion ingredient, and is listed as a Class B Tradeable Material.

In 1998, an Erumpent horn in the Lovegood House was struck by a Stunning Spell. This caused the fluid inside to explode, causing significant damage to the dwelling.
