Cobalt is useful in applications and industries that can utilize its magnetic properties, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and its strength at elevated temperatures.
The moust common Cobalt alloys are:
| Alloy 188 | Alloy C263 | Alloy L605/25 |
| Alloy MP35N | Rene 41 |
Thanks to their excellent corrosion and heat resistant characteristics, cobalt alloys are used in a variety of applications, including aerospace, industrial, marine and medical. Also, as well as forming the basis of the cobalt-base alloys discussed in this article, cobalt is also an important ingredient in other materials:
-Paint pigments
-Nickel-base superalloys
-Cemented carbides and tool steels
-Characteristics of Cobalt Alloys
Cobalt has many characteristics including stress and corrosion resistance at high temperatures, other uses of Cobalt Alloys include:
-Super alloys for the aerospace industry
-Industrial gas turbines
-Pigment in commercial and industrial ceramics and glass
