That stuff needs to get into the hands (and packs) of Combat Medics.  Amazing.

 

No, not the damn ATF...

Alcohol Treasury Firearms? Grandpa used gunpowder sprinkle on some gunpowder quickly set it on fire cauterize the wound no more bleed, Of course you gotta run down the woundee.

Pharmaceutical companies have been looking for this type of thing for years. Aminocaproic Acid (Amicar) used to do it but fell out of favor for some reason.But it didn't work this fast, wow! Using Algae as a basis is incredibly resourceful and brilliant. The kid is gonna do ok with this one.

Not "unpainful."  Chemical cauterization.

Additionally, if you are within standard contact of emergency services (e.g. can make it to modern medical care in "The Golden Hour"), your medical staff kindly request you DO NOT use quick clot.

 

They have to cut/scrape that stuff out of you.

 

You are much better off with torniquets on limbs and direct pressure bandages on the body, IF you aren't in BFE.
