'''Ettmetal''' is a kind of metal known to the [[Southern Scadrian]]s. It is also called '''harmonium''' by [[Harmony]]{{reddit ref|books|2ytg2h|csuq5u3|text=Sazed didn't like the sound of Sazedium.|date=7 july 2015}}{{17s ref|post|513046|Ettmetal is Harmonium|date=December 3, 2016}}. Ettmetal can produce the effect of a particular Allomantic power after physical contact with an Allomancer using that power.{{book ref|mb6|17}} This form of Allomancy slowly uses up the ettmetal{{book ref|mb6|22}}, similar to how other metals are burned up by an Allomancer. Unlike most other metals except [[aluminum]], ettmetal's Allomantic effectproperty works without being ingested. It appears to have the opposite effect to aluminum when interacting with Allomancy, as aluminum negates it while ettmetal mimics it.
 
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 to limited success.{{book ref|mb6|epilogue}}
