Products Description of Hydroquinone CAS#123-31-9
Cobalt(II) carbonate (chemical formula: CoCO₃) is a reddish paramagnetic solid. It acts as an intermediate in the hydrometallurgical purification process that extracts cobalt from its ores, serves as an inorganic pigment, and functions as a precursor for catalysts. Additionally, it occurs naturally as spherocobaltite—a rare mineral with red or pink hues. In laboratory or industrial settings, it is prepared by mixing solutions of cobaltous sulfate and sodium bicarbonate.

Product Application of Cobalt carbonate CAS#513-79-1
The natural form of this compound is the mineral cobalt spar—alternatively called sphaerocobaltite. Its utility spans various fields: in the ceramic industry, it is a functional additive; in materials production, it is employed as a cobalt-containing pigment; it also functions as a catalyst for chemical reactions and a device to indicate temperature changes. Moreover, it is a key raw material for synthesizing other cobalt(II) salts. In agriculture, it is further incorporated into soil to supply essential nutrients for cattle forage, supporting livestock nutrition.
