- 1To prevent heavy oxidation, as aluminium oxidizes very rapidly at high temperatures✓
- 2To ensure deep penetration, as aluminium requires extra localized heat for fusion
- 3To artificially increase the melting point of aluminium to match steel parameters
- 4To deliberately introduce high amounts of carbon into the core aluminium matrix
