Abstract

Cu-Nb composite wires were produced from powder, electrolytically coated with tin and annealed to convert the Nb fibres to Nb 3Sn. The content was varied between 10 wt % and 40 wt %. The superconducting properties of the wires were determined. The mechanical properties, tensile strength, yield strength and ductility were measured as a function of volume fraction and deformation over a wide temperature range. The results are compared with those for wires produced by different techniques.
