Can you mix cornstarch with other fluids to turn it really hard when put under compression and to make it stay like that?
Dorimardr
Cornstarch forms a thick paste when mixed with a liquid like water due to a property called cohesion (physical binding between molecules of two different substances). If pressurized and molded, the final product would probably break after the water evaporated but if you were to use something more viscous or sticky, the corn starch could hold for much longer. However, the strength of the final piece would depend on its shape and the proportion of corn starch and binding agent used. The only way to find out is to experiment

What is the chemical formula for cornstarch added to water?
Well, there is no chemical reaction, really, since the cornstarch still remains cornstarch. (and if you dry it, it becomes cornstarch again) It's just that the cornstarch lightly bonds to the water which then lightly bonds to other cornstarch, creating a net-like substance. This net is easily broken and made, thus increasing the viscosity of the fluid and adding some other interesting properties to it as well.
