Napalm research

Considering my main charecter is called Drake Napalm, and his special power is that of being able to fire incendiary fluids much like Spiderman can fire webs. i thought it a good idea to learn a bit about Napalm and incendiary fluids/gels. To do this i looked it up on Wikipedia, this is what i found:
Napalm is the name given to any of a number of flammable liquids used in warfare, often jellied gasoline. Napalm is actually the thickener in such liquids, which when mixed with gasoline makes a sticky incendiary gel. Developed by the U.S. in World War II by a team of Harvard chemists led by Louis Fieser, its name is a portmanteau of the names of its original ingredients, coprecipitated aluminium salts of naphthenic and palmitic acids. These were added to the flammable substance to cause it to gel.

Although Napalm is technically the name of the thickener of the incendiary fluid, it is much more convinient and catchy to use it as the name of the product.
