Composites having high wettability

摘要

Methods of treating superconducting composites to enhance their wettability in solder, and composites having enhanced wettability. It has been found that wettability can be substantially enhanced by stripping a thin layer off the surface of the composite before incorporating it into a laminated component. This layer can be stripped, for example, by chemically etching the composite, for example in a solution of nitric acid and ammonium bifluoride.
