Alloys of aluminum

[ScadrianTank he/him]

Are all alloys of aluminum inert to Invested effects like Allomantic pushes and pulls? Can we say that any aluminum alloy that doesn't have a blue line has the same magical properties? For example, if we used the alloy the Set used for aluminum guns and lined the room with it, would it have the same effect as pure aluminum the wall guard used in Kholinar? Now that I think of it, do we know if duralumin is Allomanticaly visible to a Coinshot or a Lurcher?

Not all alloys but some

I don't think we know the answer to this one yet. It might depend on the amount of aluminium in the alloys in question. It might depend on how different the molecular structure of pure aluminium is compared to the alloy.

Well, the Aluminium guns used in Era 2 are theorized by Wax to be Aluminium-Scandium Alloys (which btw, is an actually used Alloy of Aluminium which gives a lot of added strength to it), or at least an Alloy of some sort. Which shows that Alloys are also inert.
