Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the critical current density by sintering a wire material after applying a compressive stress of the pressure 50kgf/mm<2> or higher to the wire material which is formed by using a metal sheath material. CONSTITUTION:After plastic-processing a silver pipe filled with a superconductive material powder in a linear form, a sintering process is applied, and after applying a compressive stress of the pressure 50kgf/mm<2> or higher, a sintering process is repeated. In this case, as a means to load a compressive stress after the sintering, a press, CIP, or HIP can be used. As a result, the plate-form crystals in the superconductive parts can take a layer structure easily, and the C axes of the crystals can be oriented in the direction vertical to the contracted surface as well as the superconductive parts can be made into a high density. Consequently, the critical current density can be improved.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) The superconducting wire manufactured by the conventional method as described above is
Because the density of the superconducting portion was low and the orientation was insufficient, only a wire with a low critical current density could be obtained. The present invention applies appropriate treatment to the wire after sintering to make the superconducting part highly dense and to improve the orientation of crystals in the direction perpendicular to the compression plane, thereby increasing the critical current. The aim is to obtain a superconducting wire with high density.

FIG. 1 schematically shows the relationship between the critical current density and the number of repetitions of sintering and pressing. The critical current density of the wire is improved by repeating the pressing and sintering process compared to those made by conventional manufacturing methods, and reaches its maximum value after 2 to 4 repetitions. After the critical current density reaches the maximum value, even if the pressing and sintering steps are further repeated as schematically shown in FIG. 1, the critical current density remains unchanged (a) or, Repeated pressing and sintering steps result in coarsening of crystal grains and segregation of impurities at grain boundaries, leading to an oversintered state and a state (b) in which the critical current density decreases.
