Sounds like great stuff. So happy our troops can be getting these products. Bleed-out is sickening when all you can do is watch it happen while waiting for a dust-off.

God bless our capitalist system which encourages development of new products.

If I recall correctly, quick clot granuals more or less cauterize the wound. There’s a “sponge” form that you can mold into the shape of the wound, and if you’re not wearing gloves you can expect first and second degree burns on your hands!
