Paint additive
When cobalt oxide is added into the process of producing various paints, the performance of the produced paints is greatly improved. More importantly, cobalt oxide acts as a drying agent in the paint. That is to say, allow the paint to dry quickly during use and better to improve the paint application rate. This will greatly improve the speed of paint construction.
Refined petroleum catalyst
Cobalt products have a long history as a catalyst in petroleum refining and play an irreplaceable role in accelerating the development of oil refining production. If some use cobalt and aluminum, iron and other catalysts, the application capacity is becoming more mature. The use of cobalt oxide as a petroleum catalyst is also extremely important and widespread.
Enamel and ceramic pigments
In terms of chemical enamel production equipment, cobalt oxide can provide wear resistance and corrosion resistance when added to the enamel material. In various building materials and domestic ceramics, cobalt oxide is used to support blue pigments or glazes on ceramic products, and after roasting, bright blue ceramics are displayed which make it more artistic and appreciative. In the history of Chinese arts and crafts, the method of using cobalt oxide to decorate Venus was applied to glass ware very early; However, it was not until the Yuan Dynasty that cobalt oxide was widely used in ceramics.
