What is Cobalt oxide
Cobalt oxide is a black-gray hexagonal crystal powder. It is insoluble in water, alcohol, and ammonia. Zinc reacts to produce a variety of pigments.
On October 27, 2017, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer released a preliminary reference list of carcinogens. Cobalt and cobalt compounds are in the list of Class 2B carcinogens.

Feature of Cobalt oxide
It is used as a raw material for producing metallic cobalt. The produced metallic cobalt is used to produce tungsten-cobalt cemented carbide and cobalt magnetic alloy. Used as a catalyst in the chemical industry.
Applications of Cobalt oxide
1. In the ceramic industry, it is an additive for glazes to give ceramic products rich color and luster. In addition, the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of ceramics can be improved.
2. Used as a decolorizing agent and coloring agent in the glass industry to eliminate impurity colors in the glass and give the glass various beautiful blue colors.
3. It has good catalytic activity and can as a catalyst for many chemical reactions, such as Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, hydrocarbon oxidation and other reactions.
4. It is an important component of the cathode material of lithium batteries and can improve the energy density and cycle life of lithium batteries.
