Cobalt Flakes Co 99.7% Pure Metal Element 27 1g-10kg

Cobalt is a slightly magnetic, tough, and shiny heavy metal. With us, you can buy high-quality cobalt at the best price and receive the goods quickly.

It melts only at high temperatures of about 1495 °C and is used for heat-resistant steel coatings. Elemental cobalt occurs very rarely. However, it is a component of many minerals, although usually only in small quantities. Cobalt is mainly extracted from copper and nickel ores.

Cobalt is a steel-gray metal with the atomic number 27 and the element symbol Co. It resembles nickel in its properties and imparts these as an alloying metal to the metal being alloyed. Cobalt counteracts grain growth, increases wear resistance, and enhances magnetic properties.

Cobalt is used as an alloying metal for hard metal, high-speed steel, and hot work steel. It has good creep resistance. In combination with nickel and copper, it allows for use as a high-temperature material. Additionally, cobalt can be used to manufacture martensitic aging steel. Cobalt is used in pure form as a heating conductor material. It is corrosion-resistant in moist air and against water.

By far the most important application of cobalt is the production of rechargeable batteries, followed by superalloys, hard metal and diamond tools, magnets, and various other chemical and metallurgical applications.
