Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Nb¶3¶Al-supraleitenden Mehrfaserdrahtes

摘要

This invention provides a production method of Nb3Al superconducting multifilamentary wire based on rapid-heating, quenching and transformation method, capable of producing a high-performance Nb3Al superconducting multifilamentary wire by improving critical temperature thereof, upper critical field and critical current density. Upon a first stage heat treatment of beating a composite, in which bcc phase Nb-Al supersaturated solid solution is dispersed in Nb matrix, the bcc phase Nb-Al supersaturated solid solution ordered in temperature rise process is made disordered at an initial phase thereof and a non-reacting portion located adjacent is heated using a reaction heat generated when transforming this disordered bcc phase to A15 phase. Then, disordering of the bcc phase is promoted while propagating a high-temperature transformation region so as to automatically progress high-temperature beat treatment. As a result, a reaction-transformation is caused to block stacking fault from being generated in the A15 phase and crystal grain from being coarse and then, a second stage heat treatment for improving a long range ordering of the A15 phase is carried out.
