QY Research Inc.(Global Market Report Research Publisher) announces the release of 2024 latest report“Cobalt-60- Global Market Share and Ranking, Overall Sales and Demand Forecast 2024-2030”.Based on current situation and impact historical analysis (2019-2023) and forecast calculations (2024-2030), this report provides a comprehensive analysis of the global Wire Drawing Dies market, including market size, share, demand, industry development status, and forecasts for the next few years.

Cobalt 60 is an isotope of cobalt. The radioactive source of cobalt 60 is widely used in agriculture, industry, medicine and other fields. It can be used for radiation breeding, stimulation of yield increase, radiation control of insect pests, food irradiation preservation and preservation, non-destructive inspection, radiation disinfection, Radiation processing, radiation treatment waste, thickness, density measurement and online automatic control, and radiotherapy for cancer and tumor. At present, only a few countries in the world, such as Canada, China, and Russia, have cobalt 60 production capacity, and the international market has a bright future. In the mid-1950s the increasing demand for sterile single-use medical devices led to a rapid expansion in the use of gamma irradiation to sterilize products as the technology provided a very effective means of ensuring sterility. Since then the range of applications that benefit from Cobalt-60 irradiation has grown enormously. A diverse array of products are now routinely processed to improve their characteristics and to meet market requirements. Irradiation using Cobalt-60 is an international industry that positively impacts daily on the health and wellbeing of a large proportion of the world’s population.

Cobalt-60 Market Summary

Cobalt 60 is an isotope of cobalt. Cobalt-60 is a synthetic radioactive isotope of cobalt with a half-life of 5.2713 years. It is produced artificially in nuclear reactors. Deliberate industrial production depends on neutron activation of bulk samples of the monoisotopic and mononuclidic cobalt isotope Co-59.

    R2: There are international terror security issues

    R3: The impact of exchange rate fluctuations, rising energy prices, and increased labor costs on product prices

    Trends:

    Huge market potential

    As some new materials could not withstand the high temperatures of traditional heat sterilization, it was necessary to use a ‘cold’ process. Gamma irradiation using a Cobalt-60 source provided the required penetration and characteristics and became a leading sterilisation modality. Today electron beam and X-ray technologies offer alternatives but to date these technologies are not widely used to sterilise medical devices.

    The demand of Cobalt-60 is increasing

    With the aging population and a greater number of people, globally, having access to healthcare, advancements in technology are keeping pace by delivering new and improved medical devices almost daily. Since the medical devices industry is fueled by innovation and the ongoing quest for better ways of treating and diagnosing medical problems, future growth will occur. And, as innovation and production occur, there will be continued growing demand for the sterilization of medical devices.

    FAQs

    How long will it take a CO-60 source to decrease to 18% of its original activity? ›

    Answer: It takes approximately 9.79 years for Cobalt-60 to decrease to 18% of its original activity, and after 29 months, approximately 57.95% of the original activity remains.

    What is the specific activity of cobalt-60? ›

    Activity. Given its half-life, the radioactive activity of a gram of 60Co is close to 42 TBq (1,100 Ci). The absorbed dose constant is related to the decay energy and time. For 60Co it is equal to 0.35 mSv/(GBq h) at one meter from the source.

    At what rate does the cobalt-60 source decay? ›

    Cobalt-60 decays continuously. The time taken to lose 50% of its initial activity, i.e., its half-life, is 5.26 years. Usually 10% of the cobalt-60 is replenished annually.

    How much does cobalt-60 decay per month? ›

    The cobalt-60 source decays at a rate of about 1% per month.

    Is cobalt-60 harmful to humans? ›

    Because it decays by gamma radiation, external exposure to large sources of Co-60 can cause skin burns, acute radiation sickness, or death.

    What is the exposure limit for cobalt-60? ›

    Co-60 has a biological half life of 9.5f days, and an effective half life of 9.5 days. The maximum permissible body burden (MPBB) is 1.0 uCi, based on Stanford Guideline of whole body dose not exceeding 500 mRem/yr. The Annual Limit of Intake (ALI) is 54 uCi.

    What does cobalt-60 turn into? ›

    How does cobalt-60 change in the environment? Cobalt-60 decays by beta and gamma emission to non-radioactive nickel. Most of the radiation from the decay of cobalt- 60 is in the form of gamma emissions; some is in the form of beta particles.

    What is the half-life of cobalt-60 source? ›

    The half-life of cobalt-60 is about 5.3 years. How are people exposed to cobalt-60? Most exposure to cobalt-60 takes place intentionally during medical tests and treatments.

    How many years does it take for 50% of carbon-14 to decay? ›

    Carbon 14 is a common form of carbon which decays exponentially over time. The half-life of Carbon 14, that is, the amount of time it takes for half of any amount of Carbon 14 to decay, is approximately 5730 years.

    What is the half-life of Co-60 in days? ›

    Co-60 has a biological half life of 9.5f days, and an effective half life of 9.5 days. The maximum permissible body burden (MPBB) is 1.0 uCi, based on Stanford Guideline of whole body dose not exceeding 500 mRem/yr.

    How long does it take for carbon to dissipate? ›

    Carbon dioxide is a different animal, however. Once it's added to the atmosphere, it hangs around, for a long time: between 300 to 1,000 years. Thus, as humans change the atmosphere by emitting carbon dioxide, those changes will endure on the timescale of many human lives.
