#REDIRECCIÓN [[Armonium]]

'''Ettmetal''' is a kind of metal known to the [[Southern Scadrian]]s. It is also called '''harmonium''' by [[Harmony]].{{wob ref|3539}}{{wob ref|2544}} In conjunction with south Scadrian technology, ettmetal can reproduce a particular power of [[Allomancy]] or [[Feruchemy]] when it is in the vicinity of that power.{{book ref|mb6|17}}{{book ref|mb6|29}} When an Allomantic effect is produced, it slowly uses up the ettmetal,{{book ref|mb6|22}} similar to how metals are burned up by an Allomancer.

Ettmetal explodes when in contact with water and burns "with a pure whiteness" when releasing Allomantic energy. It is used to fuel Southern Scadrian Allomantic technology, including their airships that run via [[Steel]]pushing.{{book ref|mb6|22}} They also have a device called the '''primer cube''' that can somehow regulate ettmetal's effects with the flip of a switch.{{book ref|mb6|17}} The Southern Scadrians also use ettmetal to create powerful bombs,{{book ref|mb6|22}} which the [[Set]] have been trying to replicate with limited success.{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}

Because of its explosive interaction with water, ingesting ettmetal is likely fatal even for Allomancers, though a full Mistborn with access to gold compounding could burn it for some effect.{{wob ref|9321}} It is also likely difficult to make ettmetal [[Hemalurgic]] spikes for the same reason, though not impossible. Whether or not a [[Feruchemical]] attribute can be stored or tapped from it is currently unknown.

== Harmonium as a God Metal ==

Whereas [[atium]] contains the condensed power of [[Ruin]] and [[lerasium]] the condensed power of [[Preservation]], ettmetal is the combination of both powers in condensed form. This combination of opposite Intents somehow affects the Physical aspect of the metal{{Citation needed}}, particularly its chemical properties, making it extremely reactive.

== Trivia ==
* The term "harmonium" has never been used in the stories published so far, but [[Brandon Sanderson]] introduced the term in one of his talks even before the release of [[Shadows of Self]]{{wob ref|1033}} and has afterwards confirmed that it is another term for ettmetal.{{wob ref|2544}} [[Marasi]] probably did not know the term harmonium when [[Allik]] described ettmetal to her, as otherwise the word would have translated.{{book ref|mb6|22}}

* [[Brandon Sanderson]] has described ettmetal as "super-cesium" in reference to its violent chemical reaction with water.{{wob ref|2544}} [[Wikipedia:Cesium|Cesium]], like other alkali metals, is an extremely reactive real life metal and will cause an explosion with water even at sub-zero temperatures.
