Cobalt oxide

Cobalt oxide applications

As a blue dye

Cobalt oxide can be bought in the Novohim online chemicals store.

It is a part of professional art paints for all types of painting. It gives them a deep blue colour. Interestingly, paints based on this substance do not fade for many hundreds of years and are very expensive.

Cobalt oxide is added to underglaze paints for ceramic products.

In addition, cobalt oxide is a component of glass paints, making its colour resistant to all kinds of influences.

Cobalt oxide in metallurgical production

Cobalt oxide, due to its ferromagnetic properties, significantly improves the magnetic properties of steels when added to steels. This is what makes this material indispensable in the production of permanent magnets.

Cobalt oxide is added to steels used to make industrial cutting tools and ammunition.

In electrical engineering production

Cobalt oxide is a component of materials for the manufacture of thermal resistors capable of operating efficiently in temperatures ranging from -90 to +1000°C.

Moreover, it is used in the production of semiconductors.

Cobalt oxide in chemical production

Cobalt oxide is used as a catalyst in a large number of chemical processes and serves as a source of cobalt salts.
