The color is magnificent, with the cobalt blue sky in the background and the warm light on the lion.
But last year, researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory figured out how to use cobalt oxide, one of the most abundant industrial catalysts.
There were just two problems: it had a lower energy-density than cobalt oxide and suffered from low conductivity, limiting the rate at which energy could be delivered and stored by the battery.
The steel used in the pipes, however, is usually alloyed with cobalt to make it stronger.
They are cobalt-blue on top and silvery-white below, with a pronounced dorsal fin and a long, lethal, spear-shaped upper jaw.
The area is rich in minerals, such as iron ore, bauxite, coal, gold and cobalt, and there is the potential to start a very profitable mining industry, build a railway to service it and create jobs.
It's a filament made from tin oxide anode and lithium cobalt oxide cathode suspended in an ionic liquid electrolyte.
At the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory last year researchers found cobalt oxide could help sunlight create fuels, but only as nano-sized crystals.
The new material is a significant improvement over lithium cobalt oxide.
The gloves protect him from the chemicals in the battery, which include nickel, cobalt and manganese, and shield the battery's delicate tissues from the natural oils on his fingers.
A team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineered a long tubular virus called M13 to sheathe itself in proteins that glom onto cobalt and gold atoms.
At present, nuclear engineers clean cobalt from the system by trapping it in what are known as ion-exchange resins.
But since cobalt oxide is so reactive and costly, most experts deem it unsuitable for widespread use in hybrid or electric vehicles.
Common materials for the MTJ include chromium dioxide and iron-cobalt alloys.
Yellow jellyfish and red octopuses jet through cobalt waters.
