Global Cobalt Market: Trends and Opportunities
Cobalt-based super alloys have features such as weldability, enhanced thermal fatigue resistance, and high melting point. As a result of this, the demand for cobalt is significantly high from the electronics, automotive, and aerospace industry. The growth of the global cobalt market can be attributed to the rising demand for lightweight electric cars for combating climate change issues. Rechargeable batteries are deployed in electric vehicles, giving rise to the demand for cobalt as it is the main compound added in batteries. Owing to the use of cobalt alloys in airplane engines, the demand for cobalt is anticipated to rise from the aviation industry over the forthcoming years.
The rising application of cobalt in the medical sector is also expected to further bode well for the growth of the market. Due to features of cobalt such as corrosion resistance, strength, durability, and biocompatibility, it is used to manufacture hip and knee replacement components. It also has applications as a biomedical metal in trauma fixation dentistry, surgical instruments, and implants.
However, the demand for cobalt is likely to be hindered by the irregularity in supply occurring due to a dearth of advanced infrastructure and political instability in leading cobalt producing and exporting countries, such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Owing to the discrepancy between the supply and demand, the prices of cobalt are likely to rise, causing an adverse impact on its sales.
