The "mystery substance" would not be such a mystery at all since it's all been heavily discussed already.
Industrial Thermite. Which will keep reacting with metal untill there's no metal left to react with.
And i never attacked your person, i just checked where you post the most and that's something anyone can do.
Im not allowed to point out truth?

Thermite is actually powdered Aluminum and Iron oxide . It burns at 5400 degrees . Thats more than twice the melting point of Steel . Thats 3 times hotter than the point where steel starts to really weaken . With direct contact with the steel the melting point would be reached on the surface of the steel very quickly and progress inward very quickly .
If you noticed building 5 and 6 did not suffer any deformation beyond the tower collapsing on the top of it . Both of these buildings were cut down later even though they were burned black.

Industrial Thermite????? That sounds less made up than nano-thermite. Thermite is fueled by itself. Once there is no more thermite the reaction stops. I think that is what you are saying but on a conspiracy website you never know. More about thermite can be found here Thermite.
A Nano-thermite or "super-thermite"[1] is a metastable intermolecular composite (MICs) characterized by a particle size of its main constituents, a metal and a metal oxide, under 1 micrometre.

There's a difference between normal thermite and industrial cutting thermite.
Or military thermite.

A house fire will not melt copper wiring and steel has a higher melting temperature . The fires in the building 7are like conventional house fires . The cutting charges you are talking about would require a heaving charge to displace the columns for the building to free fall .The heaving charge is where the real blast is .
The Super Thermite would almost immediatly heat the steel to critical temps and cause long column failure and thus a collapse .
Note , I am talking about building 7 alone . This building had its fire proofing in tact as it was not hit by a plane or very much debris from the Towers . Again Building 5 and 6 are between the Towers and building 7 and they were hit by a lot of debris from the towers . They were burned clear out and had to be demolished a week later . That really hot fire didn't have much affect on them .

Worst case, if the fireproofing wasn't knocked off by the tons of debris from Tower 1, it still took 7 HOURS to collapse. That's plenty of time to burn through the fireproofing, don't you think? I believe the towers were rated to last something like 3-6 hours with intact fireproofing before the steel became vulnerable (course, it must be remembered that the impact removed the fireproofing for a few floors).
I feel like I'm arguing with walls sometimes.
