Solid solutions of niobium--tin for preparing Nb3Sn superconductors

  • 1. Univ. of Connecticut, Storrs

Description

Solid solution alloys of niobium with concentrations of Sn from 1 to 9 wt percent were prepared by quenching the solid solution from about 21000C to room temperature. These materials are relatively ductile and can be deformed, by swaging, into the desired shape, after which the material is reacted at about 8000C. The resulting structure is a mixture of Nb3Sn and Nb, with as much as 45 percent of the volume containing Nb3Sn
