摘要
Various heat-treatment schedules have been applied to the optimization of T-c and J(c,m) in bulk MgB2. Samples were prepared by first mixing in a 'V' shaped mixer and then planetary milling a stoichiometric mixture of Mg and B powders. These powders were then compacted and heat-treated at different schedules under 200 Torr of Ar. The heat-treating schedules investigated involved different time-temperatures, heating rates, and cooling rates. Magnetic critical current densities (at 20 K) of more than 2 x 10(5) A/cm(2) in 10 kOe and 4 x 10(5) A/cm(2) in 5 kOe were obtained. The influence of sodium silicate additions on the bulk properties has been studied. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
