<p>A cobalt alloy comprises (in weight%) cobalt (30), nickel (0-20), chromium (5-30), carbon (0.4-2.5) and carbide-forming metal(s) forming carbides with the carbon, where the atomic ratio in the alloy of the carbide-forming metal to the carbon amount is 0.8, and the alloy optionally contains molybdenum, tungsten, aluminum, titanium, niobium, iron, silicon, manganese, vanadium, boron, zirconium and/or contaminants. The carbides are present in the alloy in the form of a finely dispersed phase without a preferred direction. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing a cobalt alloy.</p> |
