Non leaking, jellifying or solidifying filling material

I have a liquid, that liquid is made from saturated saline ethanol (potassium iodide, glycol, demineralised water) and I need to change it to a jelly/solid by adding something to it.? To make it Solid enough to prevent any leakage if put in a container that may have a crack in it. Any Suggestions?

Look up 'Fumed Silica [affil links]', Ali, and see if that meets your needs.

You can use any cellulose based wallpaper glue!

Good luck!
