Bi-2212 and Bi-2223 wire development

Conference ·
OSTI ID:137299
The results of innovative processing of Bi-2212 by isothermal melt processing and by controlled oxygen pressure cooling yield improved properties over the conventional routes. The addition of large grains of Ag has resulted in improved core/interface geometry and better performance in Bi-2212 and Bi-2223. A deformation processing study of Bi-2223 showed the effects of sheath material, relative core thickness, and reduction per pass on core/interface uniformity.
