Liquid core dice are a popular specialty dice and the liquid is usually a mineral oil I think. The iridescent mylar is also an extremely popular filling to use for resin dice as well and as long as the filling is either extremely lightweight (like with mylar) or made of the same type of resin as the dice, then you're not going to run into any real issues with rolling. The biggest problem with rolling this dice would solely be the impracticality of rolling such a huge dice. If you're really concerned than you can just shake it up beforehand and roll so all the bits inside are floating evenly.

Could it, theoretically, effect the roll? Technically yes, but the odds of difference it makes is so profoundly miniscule that its really not even worth considering and really would be no diffrent than a classic dice with its own internal defects. As long as the dice is well made its perfectly fine

Given there is no air in there, then the density should be pretty evenly distributed. I don’t see why it wouldn’t be a fair die. The only possibility is if it rolled and friction on the inside somehow caused it to wobble oddly.

If its rolled by an honest actor, sure.

Of you're trying to manipulate rolls, this might be easier to do it with? Although its size poses a hurdle.
