Cobalt-based super alloys are non-ferrous magnetic alloys with high strength and toughness, excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance, and high temperature strength – all key qualities for a 'superalloy”. In addition, cobalt can also be magnetized, which adds to its potential uses. Cobalt's properties result in the use of Cobalt-based superalloys in jet engine components, prosthetic devices, magnets, and cutting tool binders. Cobalt is a useful alloying element in tool, maraging, and other alloy steels.
