HoCoC is a cobalt-based alloy incorporating holmium and carbon, belonging to the family of high-performance metallic compounds designed for extreme environments and specialized applications. This material is primarily investigated for use in high-temperature structural applications, magnetic devices, and wear-resistant components where the combination of cobalt's inherent strength with holmium's rare-earth properties offers potential advantages over conventional superalloys. The addition of carbon enhances hardness and wear resistance, making HoCoC a candidate material for aerospace, nuclear, and advanced manufacturing contexts where conventional alternatives may reach performance limitations.
