The phase evolution mechanism and microstructure changes during these heat treatment processes were systematically discussed. The influences of HT1 parameters on the phase evolution process of Bi-2223 tapes were discussed. With the optimized HT1 process, a proper Bi-2223 content of about 90% was achieved. HT2 process was also optimized by adding a post annealing process. An obvious increase of current capacity was obtained due to the enhancement of intergrain connections. Single filament Bi-2223 tapes with the critical current of Ic-90 A were fabricated with the optimized sintering process.展开更多

The results show that the reaction temperature and phase composition of precursor powder depend on heat treatment atmosphere. Phase assemblage of(Bi,Pb)-2212, AEC, CuO, and small Bi-2201 can be obtained by heat-treated in N2-0.1%O_2 atmosphere. For precursor powder, there is sufficient reaction process at 770℃, and the dimension of Bi-2212 phase increases rapidly with the increase of heat treatment temperature and time. The dimension of AEC phase also increases by extending heat treatment time. As a balance among phase assemblage, dimension of particle and adequate reaction, a reasonable precursor powder can be obtained by heat-treated at 770℃ for 12 h–16 h in N2-0.1%O_2 atmosphere. Critical current of 37-filament Bi-2223 tape is about 120 A, which confirms that these heat treatment parameters are reasonable.展开更多

The X-ray diffraction measurement indicated coexistence of Bi-2212, Bi-2223 phases and some impurity phases of CuO, CuNb2O6, CaNb2O6, CaCuO2, and Sr5Nb5O16. With increasing Nb content, impurity phases consistent with the Nb element appeared in the samples. Also with increasing Nb content, the Bi-2223 phase of samples gradually was decreased and in contrast, the Bi-2212 phase was increased. From the SEM, results have been seen that with increasing of Nb contents, the crystal structure of the samples was slightly changed because of the disrupted grain growth. From the electrical resistivity measurements, it has been found that with increasing of Nb contents, critical temperature decreases and the superconducting transition width (ΔT) increases. Estimated critical current density showed that Jc decreases with increasing Nb content, as expected.展开更多
