During the Galactic Civil War, members of the Death Watch—a radical and violent Mandalorian splinter group led by Overlord Teti Viba—excavated a vast network of alum mines located beneath their bunker on the forest moon of Endor. Some time around 1.5 ABY, a group of spacers defeated the contingent of Death Watch soldiers at the base, and went on to use the group's alum supply to manufacture Mandalorian armor for themselves.

- Wikipedia Article About Alum on Wikipedia Alum, in chemistry, is a term given to the crystallized double sulfates of the typical formula M+2SO4·M3+2(SO4)3·24H2O, where M+ is the sign of an alkali metal (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, or caesium), and M3+ denotes one of the trivalent metal ions (typically aluminium, chromium, or iron (III)). The ammonium ion (NH4+) also occurs in the M+ position.
- Alum is a valuable chemical compound, used for many purposes across the Westlands. The largest alum deposits in the known world come from Ghealdan, and the trade levies and taxes on alum by itself have supported the Ghealdanin throne for generations. Tear and Arafel also have significant deposits which bring significant revenue to those countries. In 1000 NE large alum deposits were discovered in the vicinity of Danabar, an estate belonging to Elayne Trakand. These deposits were used to guarantee bank loans which helped fund Elayne's claim to the Lion Throne.

abstract
| - Wikipedia Article About Alum on Wikipedia Alum, in chemistry, is a term given to the crystallized double sulfates of the typical formula M+2SO4·M3+2(SO4)3·24H2O, where M+ is the sign of an alkali metal (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, or caesium), and M3+ denotes one of the trivalent metal ions (typically aluminium, chromium, or iron (III)). The ammonium ion (NH4+) also occurs in the M+ position. These salts are employed in dyeing and various other industrial processes. They are soluble in water; have an astringent, acid, and sweetish taste; react acid to litmus; and crystallize in regular octahedra. When heated they liquefy; and if the heating is continued, the water of crystallization is driven off, the salt froths and swells, and at last an amorphous powder remains. 1.
* Alum powder, found in the spice section of many grocery stores, may be used in pickling recipes as a preservative to maintain fruit and vegetable crispness. 2.
* Alum is used as the acidic component of some commercial baking powders. 3.
* Alum was used by bakers in England during the 1800s to make bread whiter. White bread was demanded by the middle class. In 1875, the Sale of Food and Drugs Act prevented this and other adulterations.

The name of the compound is in reference to real world potassium alum which is used in a variety of disciplines from medicine to water treatment.
