  2. Permeability (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(Materials...

    A practical unit for permeability is the darcy (d), or more commonly the millidarcy (md) (1 d ≈ 10 −12 m 2). The name honors the French Engineer Henry Darcy who first described the flow of water through sand filters for potable water supply. Permeability values for most materials commonly range typically from a fraction to several thousand ...

  3. Cobalt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt

    Cobalt occurs naturally as only one stable isotope, cobalt-59. Cobalt-60 is a commercially important radioisotope, used as a radioactive tracer and for the production of high-energy gamma rays. Cobalt is also used in the petroleum industry as a catalyst when refining crude oil.

  4. Group 9 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_9_element

    The compounds cobalt silicate and cobalt(II) aluminate (CoAl 2 O 4, cobalt blue) give a distinctive deep blue color to glass, ceramics, inks, paints and varnishes. Cobalt occurs naturally as only one stable isotope, cobalt-59. Cobalt-60 is a commercially important radioisotope, used as a radioactive tracer and for the production of high-energy ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability

    Permeability (earth sciences), a measure of the ability of a material (such as rocks) to transmit fluids Relative permeability, in multiphase flow in porous media; Permeability (foundry sand), a test of the venting characteristics of a rammed foundry sand; Hydraulic conductivity, the permeability of soil for water

  6. Alnico - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alnico

    Alnico is a family of iron alloys which, in addition to iron are composed primarily of aluminium (Al), nickel (Ni), and cobalt (Co), hence the acronym [1] al-ni-co. They also include copper, and sometimes titanium. Alnico alloys are ferromagnetic, and are used to make permanent magnets.

  7. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    In SI units, permeability is measured in henries per meter (H/m), or equivalently in newtons per ampere squared (N/A 2). The permeability constant μ 0, also known as the magnetic constant or the permeability of free space, is the proportionality between magnetic induction and magnetizing force when forming a magnetic field in a classical vacuum.

  8. Cobalt compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt_compounds

    Cobalt(II) azide (Co(N 3) 2) is another binary compound of cobalt and nitrogen that can explode when heated. Cobalt(II) and azide can form Co(N 3) 2− 4 complexes. [9] Cobalt pentazolide Co(N 5) 2 was discovered in 2017, and it exists in the form of the hydrate [Co(H 2 O) 4 (N 5) 2]·4H 2 O. It decomposes at 50~145 °C to form cobalt(II) azide ...

  9. Cobalt ferrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt_ferrite

    Cobalt ferrite is a semi-hard ferrite with the chemical formula of CoFe 2 O 4 (CoO·Fe 2 O 3). The substance can be considered as between soft and hard magnetic material and is usually classified as a semi-hard material.
