Abstract

Bi type superconductor is a high-temperature superconductor with mainly applied in the field of electricity. Silver is used as a wire sheath which causes the price of this wire production to be high. In this study Bi(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSCCO) wires were made by using stainless-steel (SS316) tubes which is cheaper and is not change its properties by the temperature of the formation of BPSCCO at 860°C. The preparation of superconducting wire is done by the Powder-In-Tube method, sintering and withdrawing/ rolling process. TiO2 powder was added to analyze the effect on the formation of BPSCCO. Based on analyzing results, there is a dominant impurity phase that has been formed, namely Fe2.5Ti0.5O4. We found that in the use of stainless-steel tubes and the TiO2 powder (5wt%), 2223 phase was not formed. Although, small amounts of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 (2212) and Bi10Sr10Cu5O29 (2201) phases were found. Resistance versus temperature test using cryogenic equipment results indicate that there are symptoms of a low critical temperature around 10 K. 2212 and 2201 phases are thought to cause a low critical temperature in the samples, even though the decrease in electrical resistance does not reach zero. While the morphology of superconducting wire is quite well characterized from fairly even grains and only a small amount of porosity is formed.
