The<unk>  is obtained from the endosperm of the kernel.<unk>  is a common food ingredient, often used to thicken sauces or soups, and to make<unk>  syrup and other sugars.<unk>  is versatile, easily modified, and finds many uses in industry such as adhesives, in paper products, as an anti-sticking agent, and textile manufacturing. It has medical uses as well, such as to supply glucose for people with glycogen storage disease. Like many products in dust form, it can be hazardous in large quantities due to its flammability—see dust explosion. When mixed with a fluid,<unk>  can rearrange itself into a non-Newtonian fluid. For example, adding water transforms<unk>  into a material commonly known as oobleck while adding oil transforms<unk>  into an electrorheological (ER) fluid. The concept can be explained through the mixture termed "cornflour slime".
