25. Structure Block
minecraft:structure_block
My test was conducted in version 1.11.2.
You can place any of these blocks right where you are standing using this command: /setblock ~ ~ ~ ID
To place a dispenser for example you’d type this: /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:dispenser
My tips
Which block you might use next to a slime block will probably be different according to what you have and what you need. But for example, obsidian, pumpkins, and melons are solid blocks on which you can place redstone or carry a signal through. The Jack O'Lantern is even more amazing as it's also a light source.
But keep in mind that melons, pumpkins and Jack o’Lanterns (as well as leaves and heads) are the blocks on this list that will get destroyed if they are in front of a moving slime block.
Droppers, dispensers, furnaces and hoppers as well as chests have inventories and can be used in a redstone contraption or as storage without conflicting with a moving slime block.

Other blocks’ special behavior
Slabs and trapdoors don’t have to be visibly connected, just in the block space next to the slime block.
Sand and gravel will primarily react to gravity. If they get moved by a slime block and float afterward, they will fall.
A cactus will due to its normal behavior drop as soon as a slime block is next to it.
Signs and banners will drop when placed on and moved by a slime block and don’t react when not attached but they stop the movement of a slime block when placed in front of it.
All following blocks will due to various reasons not get moved when next to a slime block but destroyed when in front. Note that none of these are full blocks.
rails, doors, cake, redstone, torches, pressure plates, ladders, buttons, levers, comparator, repeater, snow layers, flower pots, tripwire hooks, string, flowers, saplings, crops (wheat, carrots, chorus fruits...), lava and water

Most likely future additions (regarding 1.12+)
At the time I’m writing this, Mojang announced colored bets and that glazed terracotta blocks will be adjusted so they don’t stick to slime blocks. I don’t have these features, but this information might help you if you’re playing 1.12 or beyond.
Old text – you may ignore this
I didn’t update this blog for quite a few patches. You can find the text explaining how slime blocks interacted with other blocks in older patches here but I decided to write this blog from scratch for the newest version which, at the moment, is 1.11.2 and to make my explanation a lot clearer if I could. If you are interested in what I’ve written before, it’s archived here, but I suggest you just ignore it. ;)
I did a little testing: I tried moving every block Minecraft contains with slime blocks. For time-saving sakes, I'll give you my results. So if you want to build some kind of contraption using slime blocks this will give you a fast look at the types of blocks you could put next to a moving slime block.
There are 23 blocks of interest, of which some can unfortunately only be maintained in creative mode. These blocks could get placed next to a slime block and will not get moved. They also will not allow a slime block to move if they are in its way. Chests might be considered entities but I still put them on this list as it's useful to know, that they can't be moved.
In 1.8 carpets will pop off by getting moved by a slime block even if they are not in its path. The same happens to both kinds of trapdoors and all rails. In 1.9 and 1.10 carpets and trapdoors will get moved by slime blocks like every other normal block.
Decoration blocks so as flower pots and many others would not get moved if they are next to a slime block because their hitbox is too small and doesn’t connect to the slime blocks. They would pop off if they got placed directly in the slime blocks path.
That also counts for leaves and cakes. They get not moved by the slime block but destroyed (not dropped) if they are in its way. Redstone doesn't pop off even if its hitbox connects to the slime blocks.
Slime blocks can move upside down half slabs. Thus, even if the slab is under it and doesn't look like it's connected.
Banners, as they are entities, don't get moved by slime blocks.
Skulls don't get moved when they are on the side of a slime block but destroyed when they are in its way.
Chorus fruits and chorus flowers as well as the other crops don't react when they are on the side of a moving slime block but destroyed when in front of it.
End crystals get moved never the less you are using a slime block in front of a piston or a piston alone.
In 1.9, there were no new for slime blocks unmovable blocks added. Only shulkers - as they are entities, not blocks - do not get moved by slime blocks.
In a pre-release version of 1.10 nether wart blocks did not get moved by slime blocks. Sadly the developers decided to revise this. So in the official release of 1.10, all of the four newly added building blocks stick to slime blocks. Not very exciting for ordinary players but still worth knowing is that the structure block, a creative tool for map makers, doesn't stick to slime blocks.

I did some research but there is definetly no block that only pistos can move, that a slime block cant.
Sorry about that dumb question of mine.

However, thank you for nice comment. :)
I've been using something similar to the Carpet popping off to make a "Blast shield" which falls behind Slime Block Missiles when I fire them into my Explosive Test Chamber.
You put a line of string at the same height as the Missile's maximum height. Then put carpet on that string. Then, put Sand, Red Sand, or Gravel on top of those carpets. Put torches on the side of the Gravel or whatever, then more blocks on top of the torches, until finally you reach a width which completely covers the Explosive Test Chamber. Then, put Anvils on top of that Gravel, of the same height as the Explosive Test Chamber.
The end result is, you fire your missile into the chamber. It breaks the string, and when it breaks the string, the carpet also breaks. That triggers all the blocks to fall. The gravel (or sand, etc) blocks will be destroyed easily by any explosion, but the Anvils will survive just about any explosion. So, it will be a Blast Shield which falls down behind your Missile and contains the explosives to (almost) only within the Explosive Test Chamber.
It will still sometimes blast through 1 or 2 blocks, but before I started using it, it was blowing up 6-7 blocks outside of the chamber.
But I play on Console Edition so a lag-free PC might have different issues.
