An curved arrow pointing right. You definitely shouldn't mess around with mercury, but if you want a safe, similar, tactile experience, a metal called Gallium is widely available online.

Indeed, in the original communication of its discovery to the French Academy, it was described as a new liquid metal, similar to mercury; but on touching with a fragment of solid gallium a portion ...

The journey to this breakthrough began with a 2017 study that showed liquid gallium could catalyze the production of graphene from methane at low temperatures inside a custom-built vacuum system.

This study explores liquid metal-based flexible three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), highlighting their ...

The most commonly studied liquid metals include gallium, indium, tin, and their alloys, such as eutectic gallium-indium (EGaIn) and gallium-indium-tin (Galinstan). Liquid metals can be synthesized and ...

The research, led by a team from China Agricultural University, focuses on developing a synergetic cooling and charging strategy using a gallium-based liquid metal flexible charging connector (LMFCC).

The cones are coated in a liquid metal — [Zach] used Galinstan, an alloy of gallium, indium, and tin — and an high voltage is applied between the liquid metal and an extraction electrode.
