Also.. as others have said the melting point for aluminum is 1218 degrees and it off gases around 600-700 degrees.

The plastic parts used in the volcano is a hard plastic similar to those found in car engine bays which are meant to withstand very high temperatures.

You can find all the information supporting this through a simple google search. I found more information supporting this than I did find to support your claims. Furthermore any evidence or articles from ANY company that also produces vaporizers or other goods should be taken with a grain of salt. If they offer glass or ceramic then naturally they will try to downplay aluminum and make it seem bad.

They are not lying to you, but they are not telling the truth either.
