Abstract

The powder preparation by using emulsion drying method, one of the chemical powder fabrication methods has the advantages; easy to control the chemical stoichiometry and to fabricate homogeneously fine particles. In the present study, the initial morphology and size distribution of the powder fabricated by using emulsion dry-ing method were controlled and were improved the homogeneity. By carefully controlling the mixing ratio of oil phase and aqueous solution and surfactant of preventing emulsion separation, the Bi(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O su-perconducting powders were prepared. The properties of the superconducting powder fabricated by this method and the microstructures and superconducting properties of the pelletized samples were investigated. The microstructures and electric properties of the tapes prepared by oxide powder-in-tube method were in-vestigated. The fabricated powder was spherical with less than 1$\mu$m but most of them was agglomerated with 2~5$\mu$m in size. The critical temperature of the pelletized sample annealed at 84$0^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours in oxygen par-tial pressure of 1/13atm in Ar atmosphere was 108K. And the critical current of the first and second annealed tapes in air prepared by oxide powder-in-tube process were 0.4A and 1.5A, respectively.

액상 분말 합성법 중의 하나인 에멀젼 건조 방법에 의한 분말 합성은 조성 조절이 용이하고 균질한 미립자 분말을 제조할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있다. 에멀젼 건조법을 사용하여 합성 분체의 초기 형상과 입도를 제어하고 근본적으로 더욱 개선된 homogeneity를 얻었다. 에멀젼의 분리를 억제시킬 수 있는 계면활성제, 오일상 및 수용액의 혼합비를 조절함으로써 Bi(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O 초전도 분말을 제조할 수 있었다. 이 방법에 의하여 합성된 산화물 초전도체 분말의 특성 및 pellet으로 성형한 시편을 열처리하여 미세구조와 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 또한, OPIT(Oxide Powder-in-tube)법에 의해 테이프를 제작하여 미세구조와 전기적 특성을 관찰하였다. 합성된 분말의 입자크기는 1$\mu$m이하의 구형이었으나 대부분이 2~5$\mu$m크기로 응집되어 있었다. Ar분위기의 1/13atm 산소분압(Po2)에서 84$0^{\circ}C$로 72시간 동안 열처리한 덩어리형 시편의 임계저항온도는 108K이었으며, 1차와 2차 열처리한 테이프의 임계전류는 각각 0.4A와 1.5A이었다.
