Alnico is a type of alloy made primarily from aluminum, nickel, and cobalt, along with small amounts of other elements such as iron, copper, and titanium. The name "Alnico" is derived from the elemental symbols of the primary components: Al (aluminum), Ni (nickel), and Co (cobalt). Alnico is best known for its use in the production of permanent magnets, which are valued for their stability and ability to maintain strong magnetic properties over time.
