抄録

This paper describes a fabrication process of Nb3Al intermetallic compound wires and measurements of their superconducting properties. Nb3Al superconducting wires are successfully fabricated by the combined process of the clad-chip extrusion (CCE) method and the rapid-heating, quenching and transformation (RHQT) treatment. The CCE method is a processing of Nb/Al composite wire with fine-layered structure, which is characterized by the extrusion of thin chips of clad-rolled Nb/Al sheet. Its chemical composition is controlled by the thickness ratio of the Nb-layer to the Al-layer at clad-rolling. The RHQT treatment is a heat-treatment to convert the Nb/Al composite into Nb3Al, which can produce fine grain structure of Nb3Al intermetallic compound with nearly stoichiometric composition. It is favorable for upgrading the superconducting properties.<BR>The critical transition temperature and the critical current density are enhanced by optimizing the microstructure of the CCE-processed precursor wire and the transformation condition in the RHQT process. Plastic working of the bcc supersaturated solid solution wire after rapid-heating and quenching is found to be effective for enhancing the critical current density in high magnetic field.
