- The effects of hot isostatic pressing (HIPing) on densification and the superconducting properties of the Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-O system were investigated. A relative density up to 95% and a critical current density greater than 1100 A/cm2 at 77 K were achieved through HIPing at 650°C for 2 h under 200 MPa argon. Under these conditions, the product gave a value of Jc four times that without HIPing. To was unaffected by HIPing for samples encapsulated with a combination of glass and silver tubes. However, To was suppressed from 103 K to 86 K for samples encapsulated with stainless steel and silver tubes while Jc increased from 260 A/ cm2 to 1086 A/cm2 during HIPing, indicating that the weak links were significantly improved. A new minor phase, having a composition of Bi/Pb/Sr/Ca/Cu=0.58/2.8/3.0/2.1/1.1, was observed in HIPed samples but its effect on Jc is not clear

- The critical current density (Jc) of Ag-clad Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O wire has been measured to be 1.2×104 A/cm2 at 77 K in zero field. The high Jc is attributed to a combination of elimination of the poisoning effect of Ag on superconductivity, grain alignment, and enhancement of flux pinning. Jc-H dependence was significantly improved in the Ag-clad tape, which has a Jc of 1.0×103 A /cm2 at 77 K and 4000 Oe, while the Jc of the sintered pellet drops two orders of magnitude at only 100 Oe. A pronounced anisotropy in Jc under high magnetic field is attributed to the grain alignment. Planar defects, such as heavy stacking faults parallel to the a-b plane in the rolled tape, are considered to be effective pinning centres.

- The oxidation states of Bi, Pb, and Cu in the BiPbSrCaCuO (BPSCCO) system have been determined by a combination of volumetric measurement technique and iodometric titration. It was found that, in contrast to previous reports, the concentration of the Cu3+ ions decreased with increasing Pb content, and Cu3+ ions were absent in samples of Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr1.6Ca2Cu3O9.8, while a Tc at 108 K and a Jc of greater than 12,000 A/cm2 at 77 K were observed. The 110 K phase in BPSCCO was stabilized and showed a high tolerance to change in oxygen partial pressure during sintering. In Pb-doped materials, Bi appears to be trivalent while Pb was determined to be mixed-valence Pb4+ Pb2+. It is suggested that superconductivity in BPSCCO may result from a dynamic transfer of holes from Bi PbO layers toward CuO2 planes
