A description is given of the oxide powder in silver tube process for Bi-2223 phase high temperature superconductor tapes. Results of materials and electrical property measurements define the critical issues for high critical current density tapes to be the production of uniform, chemically homogeneous tape cores which together with careful thermomechanical processing result in conductors with a high degree of texture and small number of deleterious microcracks.
