Superconductor-polymer composites

摘要

Superconductor-polymer composite materials comprise a matrix formed of a thermoplastic polymer and a superconductor powder dispersed in the matrix. The superconductor powder preferably has a composition RBa2Cu3O7-x wherein R is a rare earth metal and x is less than or equal to 1. The thermoplastic polymer matrix comprises a vinylidene fluoride homopolymer or copolymer. The composite materials may be formed as shaped products, sheets or films.
