== Allomantic Use ==
A duralumin [[Misting]] is known as a '''Duralumin Gnat'''. An Allomancer burning duralumin instantly uses up any metals being burned simultaneously, releasing an enormous burst of power from those metals. Duralumin itself is not completely consumed like metals it is burned in concert with, but it still continues to burn away at a steady rate.{{book ref|woa|5}}{{book ref|woa|8}} A Duralumin Gnat gains nothing from their powers.{{book ref|aol|part=ars}}
The use of duralumin could seriously hurt a [[Mistborn]]. While burning [[tin]], the Mistborn could be shocked by the sensory overload as well as become temporarily numb, blind, and deaf. A [[Steel|Push]] or [[Iron|Pull]] could become so strong it can feel like the Mistborn is being torn apart.{{book ref|mb2|8}}{{book ref|mb2|11}}
== Feruchemical Use ==
Duralumin Feruchemy can also change one's Spiritual Connection to a planet, which can help [[worldhopper]]s with magic systems. Connectors do not have the inherent ability to worldhop, however.{{wob ref|1021}} Tapping a duraluminmind on a [[Shardworld]] other than [[Sel]] would prevent a Connector from using Selish magic.{{wob ref|2560}}
== History ==
During the [[Final Empire]], the [[Lord Ruler]] kept [[aluminum]] and it's alloy duralumin from public knowledge to give the [[Inquisitors]] an advantage.{{ref|name=a-mb3-74}} Another reason why aluminum and duralunin were unknown to people is that refining aluminum requires advanced technology of electrolysis. Without the ability, the Lord Ruler acquired small amounts of the metal from ashmounts.
[[Vin]], having been fed aluminum by the Inquisitors, figured there should be an alloy for it, too.{{cite}} She tested out various alloys of aluminum despite the risk, and discovered only one alloy which doesn't cause sickness, but also generates no effect when burned. While sparring with [[Zane]], Vin was stunned to find out the effect of duralumin. She kept the secret to few and later this granted her a significant advantage.
== Hemalurgic Use ==
* If [[Vin]] hadn't had duralumin in the fight at the [[Luthadel Assembly]] meeting both [[Elend]] and she would have died.{{book ref|mb2|38}}{{ref|name=a-mb2-38}}
* An alternative ending to ''[[The Well of Ascension]]'' has a conversation about duralumin between [[Vin]] and [[Elend]].{{ref|name=mb2-alt-end}}
* Brandon wrote the [[Battle of Hathsin]]'s ending to include [[Elend]] burning both duralumin and [[atium]] because lots of people had asked about the combination.{{ref|name=a-mb3-81-3}}
▲* Burning duralumin whilst also compounding any other metal does not gain anything other than time, and is quite dangerous due to the swift effects of the duralumin.{{wob ref|5901}}
