Like using space lube to make cyborgs go faster, strange reagent to neutralize skeletons, or bath salts and krokodil as trade goods at the diner, or hairgrownium to help the barber in some way (no one ever plays barber lol)?
unrelated: If you put multiple beakers into a mail chute the reagents should spill and mix (kind of like how the mail chute ruins produce that isn't in a satchel). Put 2 beakers with the ingredients for smoke in one end, smoke and 2 empty beakers come out the other. If you want to avoid this effect for any reason you can send bottles instead.
Also, about the metal foam problem, metal foam should be clearable with welders or mining tools, so it's only purpose is to plug leaks in the station. If people want to grief then space lube/stable mutagen is funnier anyway.
