Cobalt–boron (CoB) is an intermetallic compound combining cobalt and boron, typically used as a hard ceramic or wear-resistant coating material. It finds application in cutting tools, wear-protection coatings, and catalytic systems where its hardness and thermal stability are valued. CoB is also of interest in research contexts for hydrogen storage and electrochemical applications, making it relevant for engineers working on advanced surface engineering or emerging energy technologies.
