What is the aim CoCoMag project?
The aim of the CoCoMag is to synthesize, produce and test new alloys suitable for permanent magnets and magnetocaloric applications without using highly critical elements like rare earth and cobalt. This step is crucial to accelerate the electrification of our infrastructures.
Our alloys consist of several main elements in relatively high concentrations, known in technical jargon as high entropy alloys. This allows the properties of the individual elements to be fully exploited, which means that the new magnets will not only be more sustainable, but also with additional functionalities such as malleability and corrosion-resistance.
