Effect of Sintering Conditions on the Phase Formation and Microstructure of Bi-2223/Ag/Ni Composite-Sheathed Tapes

Article Preview

Abstract:

Effect of sintering conditions in the first heat treatment on the phase and microstructure evolution of Bi-2223/Ag/Ni composite-sheathed tapes fabricated by powder-in-tube method was studied. Samples were sintered at different temperatures for different time in an atmosphere of 14.5% O2. The results showed that this higher O2 atmosphere improved the content of Bi-2223 phase. XRD and SEM results showed that Bi-2223 content increased with the extension of the dwelling time. Meanwhile, the sintering temperature had significant influence on the Bi-2223 content and secondary phase dimensions as well. With the increase of the sintering temperature, the Bi-2223 content reached to a maximum at 834. With further increase of sintering temperature, the Bi-2223 phase was decomposed to Bi-2212 and others secondary phases.
