Abstract
Disclosed herein is a superconductor covered with a reinforced aluminum matrix, which is obtained by cladding a superconductor with an aluminum matrix reinforced with a very small proportion of alumina dispersed therein and subjecting the clad superconductor to integral forming.
Claims4
A method for the manufacture of a superconductor covered with an aluminum matrix of augmented tensile strength, which method comprises steps of inserting a superconductive wire in a pipe of aluminum having alumina dispersed therein and subjecting the resultant assembly of said pipe and said wire to wire-drawing for thereby forming a unitary superconductor.
