Description

The Bi-2212 is one of the main HTSC's for applications development. The present work reports our investigations on the partial melt processing of bulk-2212. The precursors were uniaxially pressed into silver molds, which were partially melted, slow cooled and subsequently annealed. Precursor powders with different nominal compositions, with and without silver powder addition were employed. Samples were analyzed by XRD, SEM/EDS and DTA. The DC critical current (lc) was measured by the four-points method (77 K). Although the partial melt processing has been intensively studied, there is still a lack of knowledge on the influence on the final properties of bulk Bi-2212. (author)
