Cobalt nickel alloy

Overall, this is the most significant use of cobalt, as shown in Table I (48% total use). Metallic cobalt is an important alloying element in numerous applications, such as super alloys (cobalt, nickel, iron based), magnetic alloys (soft, AlNiCo, SmCo), wear-resistant alloys, high speed steels, prosthetic alloys, and cemented carbide. 

Metals are used in the cardiovascular area including heart valves, heart pacemaker leads, and heart pacemaker cases. These metals include titanium, titanium aUojrs, cobalt-chromium alloys, and cobalt-nickel alloys. Metals used for aneurism clips include cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloys, cobalt-nickel-chromium-molybdenum allojfs, and, previously, stainless steels were used. Metal seeds are used for fractionated hyperthermia treatment of prostate disease, and corrosion analysis showed the alloy, PdCo may be suitable for the seed implants [52],... 

Molybdenum, an unusually versatile alloying element, imparts numerous beneficial properties to irons and steels and to some alloy systems based on cobalt, nickel, or titanium. Comprehensive summaries of uses through 1948 (24) and 1980 (25) are available. 

The important (3-stabilizing alloying elements are the bcc elements vanadium, molybdenum, tantalum, and niobium of the P-isomorphous type and manganese, iron, chromium, cobalt, nickel, copper, and siUcon of the P-eutectoid type. The P eutectoid elements, arranged in order of increasing tendency to form compounds, are shown in Table 7. The elements copper, siUcon, nickel, and cobalt are termed active eutectoid formers because of a rapid decomposition of P to a and a compound. The other elements in Table 7 are sluggish in their eutectoid reactions and thus it is possible to avoid compound formation by careful control of heat treatment and composition. The relative P-stabilizing effects of these elements can be expressed in the form of a molybdenum equivalency. Mo (29) ... 

Cemented tungsten carbides also find use as a support for polycrystalline diamond (PCD) cutting tips, or as a matrix alloy with cobalt, nickel, copper, and iron, ia which diamond particles are embedded. These tools are employed ia a variety of iadustries including mineral exploration and development oil and gas exploration and production and concrete, asphalt, and dimension stone cutting. 

In addition to the metals Hsted above, many alloys ate commercially electroplated brass, bronze, many gold alloys, lead—tin, nickel—iron, nickel—cobalt, nickel—phosphoms, tin—nickel, tin—zinc, ziac-nickel, ziac-cobalt, and ziac-iron. Electroplated alloys ia lesser use iaclude lead—iadium, nickel—manganese, nickel-tuagstea, palladium alloys, silver alloys, and zinc—manganese. Whereas tertiary and many other alloys can feasibly be electroplated, these have not found commercial appHcations. 

Zinc, aluminum, nickel alloys, cobalt alloys and tungsten carbide are applied for sprayed coatings, which are slightly porous. Flame-sprayed zinc coatings are used for corrosion protection of steel and provide similar properties for galvanized coatings.

The corrosion behaviour of amorphous alloys has received particular attention since the extraordinarily high corrosion resistance of amorphous iron-chromium-metalloid alloys was reported. The majority of amorphous ferrous alloys contain large amounts of metalloids. The corrosion rate of amorphous iron-metalloid alloys decreases with the addition of most second metallic elements such as titanium, zirconium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, cobalt, nickel, copper, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, iridium and platinum . The addition of chromium is particularly effective. For instance amorphous Fe-8Cr-13P-7C alloy passivates spontaneously even in 2 N HCl at ambient temperature ". (The number denoting the concentration of an alloy element in the amorphous alloy formulae is the atomic percent unless otherwise stated.)... 

Wearmouth has described the production of nickel-cobalt, nickel-manganese, and nickel-chromium alloy coatings for non-decorative uses. The nickel-cobalt and nickel-manganese are electrodeposited direct from sulphamate-based solutions, the nickel-cobalt alloys offering higher hardness than the nickel-manganese alloys, which are restricted to a relatively... 

For alloys of iron, cobalt, nickel, and copper the calculated values of saturation magnetic moments agree closely with the observed values in particular, the maximum value of about 2.48 magnetons at electron number about 26.3 is reproduced by the theory. There is, however, only rough agreement between the observed and calculated values of the Curie temperature. 

For iron, cobalt, nickel, and their alloys, the most sensitive technique for characterizing the particle surface is the measurement of magnetic properties. Thus, we synthesized cobalt nanoparticles of 1.6 nm (ca. 150 atoms), 2 nm (ca. 300 atoms) and 4 nm (a few thousand atoms) mean size. The structure of the particles is hep in the latter case and polytetrahedral in the first two cases. The 4 nm particles display a saturation magnetization equal to that of bulk...

CSC atomization was developed by AEA Harwell Laboratories in the UK in the early 1970 s. Initially, the CSC process was used for the atomization of refractory and oxide materials such as alumina, plutonium oxides, and uranium monocarbide in nuclear fuel applications. Since it is well-suited to the atomization of reactive metals/alloys or those subject to segregation, the CSC process has been applied to a variety of materials such as iron, cobalt, nickel, and titanium alloys and many refractory metals. The process also has potential to scale up to a continuous process. 

The most common ore of iron is hematite that appears as black sand on beaches or black seams when exposed in the ground. Iron ores (ferric oxides) also vary in color from brownish-red to brick red to cherry red with a metallic shine. Small amounts of iron and iron alloys with nickel and cobalt were found in meteorites (siderite) by early humans. This limited supply was used to shape tools and crude weapons. 

Titanium combines with several metals, such as, iron, copper, aluminum, chromium, cobalt, nickel, lead and tin at elevated temperatures forming alloys. 

Cobalt, nickel, or their alloys, which are more electropositive metals. 

Small metal particles can also be obtained by vacuum evaporation in low pressure inert gases (16). Magnetic particles of metals such as iron, cobalt, nickel, and alloys of these metals can be prepared by this method. Though the amounts of particles obtainable by this method are limited, the particles are clean as compared with particles precipitated from solutions. They are mainly used for studies of physical properties of fine particles.
