Cobalt Market Review - Market Research Report

This report focuses on the study of the global cobalt markets. It provides region analysis on cobalt metal production. It features major cobalt producers, prices, supply and demand conditions, international trade, etc. The review also includes future outlook of the world cobalt market.

Cobalt is a strategic and critical metal used in many diverse commercial, industrial, and military applications. Historically, the leading use of cobalt has been in superalloys, which are used to make parts for gas turbine engines. In recent years, rapid growth in the rechargeable battery industry has resulted in a significant increase in the use of cobalt to make battery electrodes, such that now, on a global basis, the battery and superalloy industries consume similar amounts of cobalt. Cobalt is also used to make airbags in automobiles; catalysts for the petroleum and chemical industries; cemented carbides (also called hardmetals) and diamond tools; corrosion- and wear-resistant alloys; drying agents for paints, varnishes, and inks; dyes and pigments; ground coats for porcelain enamels; high-speed steels; magnetic recording media; magnets; and steel-belted radial tires.
