Improved superconducting and mechanical properties were obtained forBi(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O tapes, prepared by the combined process of doctor-bladecasting, cold rolling, and sintering. The tape has an oriented microstructurewith the high /ital T//sub /ital c// plate-like grains having their /ital c/ axesperpendicular to the rolling surface. The tape is flexible and can be bentwithout any degradation of /ital J//sub /ital c// to just before fracture (strainlarger than /similar to/0.12%).
