Introduction

MgB2 Advantages of MgB2 superconductor Low cost – low weight Absence of weak links Simple crystal structure Moderately high Tc High current densities Two energy gaps MgB2 Potentially high critical field First is the introduction. Low cost – low weight precursors price: 150 €/Kg Density: 2.5 kg/dm3 Nagamatsu et al. Nature 410, 63 (2001) C. Buzea, T. Yamashita. Supercond. Sci. Technol. 14 (2001) R115 4

Disadvantages of MgB2 superconductor Jc decrease with increasing field quickly Fragile → Difficult to making wires and tapes directly Flux pinning Enhancement: Irradiation Doping; like C or Ti Sheath & conductor structure design Densification: Hot-press heat- treatment Magnetic Processing High-energy ball milling Porosity structure Homogeneous deformation for the powders is not easy.

In-situ PIT method for km-grade MgB2 wires Preparation of Precursor powders Conductor structure design Deformation processing Fabrication of km-grade MgB2 wires and their superconducting properties

(Scrapping Mg+ 2B) After sintering Preparation of Precursor powders Shape of Mg powders Global Mg Scrapping Mg Scrapping Mg: Higher specific surface area; Larger surface energy; Lower solid-solid starting reaction temperature. (Global Mg+ 2B) After sintering (Scrapping Mg+ 2B) After sintering The shape and size of holes depend on the shape and size of raw Mg powder. S.C. Yan et al. Acta metallurgica sinica,43(2007)358-362

Preparation of Precursor powders Size of Mg powders Complete Reaction, higher density and higher phase purity can be acquired using scrapping Mg powder with the size of 45 μm as the precursor powder Synthesis with 45 μm Mg Synthesis with 100 μm Mg S.C. Yan et al. Rare metal mat. Eng. 36(2007)1260-1262

Two-step reaction method Preparation of Precursor powders Two-step reaction method Single-step reaction: Mass hole formed! Mg:B=1: 2 Two-step reaction: Improved the density and homogeneity Mg:B=1: 4 S.C. Yan et al. Rare metal mat. Eng. 36(2007)1260-1262 The hole in MgB2 is depending on the size of magnesium. The two-step method could decrease the initial Mg ratio and thus improve the density.

Two-step reaction method Preparation of Precursor powders Two-step reaction method One-step reaction Two-step reaction Porosity decrease obviously, the density increased from 1.5 to 1.9 g/cm3 The Grains are still with very small size.

Preparation of Precursor powders Two-step reaction method First step sintering with C doping Second step sintering with C doping S.C. Yan et al. J. Alloys Compd. 459(2008)452-456 Two-step reaction method is beneficial for carbon substitution at B sites.

Technol 20(2007)377-380 For the sub-micron carbon-doped MgB2 by a two-step reaction: The upper critical field Hc2 reached 10.5 T at 20 K. The critical current density Jc is 7.8×104 A cm−2 at 20 K and 1 T.

+ Nb or NbTi reinforcement Conductor structure design Central reinforcement Materials 7-MgB2 filaments 6-MgB2 filaments +Cu reinforcement 6-MgB2 filaments + Nb or NbTi reinforcement Central filament easily be broken

Mechanical Properties Conductor structure design Mechanical Properties 6-MgB2 filaments +Cu reinforcement 6-MgB2 filaments +Nb reinforcement Nb reinforced wire exhibits higher mechanical properties. The yield strength of the Nb reinforced wire is about 120 MPa and only 50 MPa for the wires with Cu reinforced. The Nb reinforcement could remarkably enhance the mechanical property of the 6 filaments MgB2 wires. C.S. Li et al. Physica C 494 (2013) 177–180

Conductor structure design Thermal stability 12-core MgB2 +Cu reinforcement 12-core MgB2 + Nb reinforcement Voltage, (mV/m) Voltage, (mV/m) Cu reinforcement n=14@25K Nb reinforcement n=23@25K The following two figures show the stabilization properties of MgB2 with different center-reinforced. Niobium(Nb) center-reinforced is prone to increase the n value and homogeneity of wires. Current, (A) Current, (A) Nb reinforcement is also prone to improve the n value and homogeneity of superconducting wires.

Different Filament Numbers Conductor structure design Different Filament Numbers Filament 6 12 36 MgB2 21.89 14.14 13.95 Nb 23.61 21.88 20.97 Cu 54.50 63.98 65.08 The intensity of 6 filaments wire is higher than that of other wires due to much higher Nb content.

Conductor structure design Transport properties The transport property of MgB2 wires is also affected by the filament. The number of filament increases, the Jc value decreases. Jc is influenced by filament number; The optimal filament number is 6-filament.

Deformation processing Drawing speed The fracture morphology is formed at the stretching rate of 10 m /min: (1). No obvious charge diameter in the region of fracture ; (2). Cu-Nb interface bonding is good, Cu-Cu interface bonding is not good; (3). Small drawing speed is beneficial for the reduction of gaps and better combination of complex. D. Shan et al. Physica C 483 (2012) 17–20

Deformation processing Processing rate 8% 12% 20% longitudinal cracks appeared Suitable processing rate per one die is in the range of 8-12% deformation ratio.   Drawing speed is 1~6 m/min for km-level processing line.

Physica C 484 (2013) 163–166 For all the wires,  the critical current density has no loss when the radius is larger than 108 mm.  Bending has smaller effect on the 6-filament wires when bending radius is larger than 40 mm.

Conclusions

Conclusions Conclusions Both the size and shape of Mg affects the density of MgB2, as well as the superconducting properties. Nb reinforcement is good to improve the superconducting properties and strength of MgB2 wires. 8-12% deformation per one die is good to obtain the MgB2 long wires with well homogeneity. 20 kilometers MgB2 wires have been successfully produced by scale fabrication technique at NIN, which are with a Jc of 43000 A/cm2 (±5%) at 20 K and 2 T. For all the wires,  the Jc has no loss when the radius is larger than 108 mm; and 6-filament Nb-reinforcement wires have better bending properties, it has the smallest bending radius, up to 40 mm.
