Summary

MECHANICAL ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES WERE STUDIED FOR SEVERAL SAMPLES PREPARED BY INDUCTION MELTING IN A CALCIUM OXIDE CRUCIBLE AND DRAWING. THESE COMPOSITES HAD LARGE YIELD STRESSES ABOVE 50 KG/MM2 (500 MEGAPASCALS), EVEN AFTER ANNEALING AT 1,023 K (750 DEG C) FOR 1 HOUR. MOREOVER, ANNEALED WIRES SHOW MAGNETORESISTANCE OF ABOUT 0.25 MICRO-OHM/CM AT HIGH FIELD OF 15 T. IT WAS FOUND THAT COPPER-NIOBIUM COMPOSITE WIRES ARE APPLICABLE NOT ONLY TONORMAL CONDUCTORS IN HIGH FIELDS, BUT ALSO TO REINFORCING STABILIZERS FOR LARGE-SCALE AND/OR HIGH-FIELD SUPERCONDUCTING WIRES.
