ある。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a large number of NbTi alloy rods fitted with copper pipes are inserted into a copper billet to form a composite, which is hot-extruded to reduce the diameter, and then wire drawing through a die. By doing so, a superconducting ultrafine multifilamentary wire having thousands of NbTi alloy filaments was produced. However, this superconducting ultra-fine multi-core wire is
And a permanent current mode which results in current decay during use. A layer of an NbTi alloy and an intermetallic compound of copper (for example, Ti 2 Cu, (TiNb) 2 Cu) is formed due to the temperature rise for hot extrusion and the heat generation during extrusion, and this layer is a NbTi alloy filament. Harder, NbTi alloy filament is hard to get into when drawing wire, Nb
This is because many wire breakages of the Ti alloy filament occur.

スを通して伸線加工する。The manufacturing procedure of the superconducting ultrafine multifilamentary wire of the present invention will be described in detail below. (1) The surface of the NbTi alloy rod is coated with a NbTi barrier.
This step is a feature of the superconducting wire of the present invention. At this stage, the diameter of the NbTi alloy rod is several mm to several tens of mm, and the NbTi barrier thickness is several 100 μm. The subsequent steps are exactly the same as the conventional method. (2) The NbTi alloy rod and a copper pipe or a copper alloy (for example, Cu-Ni alloy) pipe are fitted to each other, and a large number of fittings are inserted into a copper billet. (3) The billet is reduced in diameter by hot extrusion and then drawn through a die.

It is 0 to 60% by weight, and this alloy easily forms an intermetallic compound with copper. NbTi used as a barrier is difficult to form an intermetallic compound with copper even at a considerably high temperature (for example, 700 ° C.). The thickness of the barrier to be coated varies depending on the extrusion and wire drawing conditions, but the final dimension is preferably about 1 μm. The Ti concentration in the barrier is preferably 0.01% by weight or more.

合金と銅の金属間化合物の形成がないからである。The advantage of the superconducting wire of the present invention is that the NbTi alloy filament has almost no breakage and has excellent superconducting properties. The barrier prevents NbTi alloy and copper from diffusing even at high temperatures during hot extrusion, so NbTi
This is because there is no formation of an intermetallic compound between the alloy and copper.

れており、本発明はこの点でも工業的に有利である。Another feature of the superconducting wire of the present invention is that the manufacturing cost can be reduced. This is because the hot extrusion temperature can be increased because the trouble that causes the wire breakage does not occur even at a high temperature, and thus the workability of the hot extrusion can be increased (the surface can be greatly reduced). Another feature of the present invention is high critical current density. By arranging the NbTi barrier with an appropriate thickness, the number of heat treatments during processing can be reduced to 1
The number can be increased from 3 times to 4 to 10 times.
It is known that the higher the number of heat treatments, the higher the critical current density, and the present invention is industrially advantageous in this respect as well.

Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Example 1 The surface of a NbTi alloy rod having a diameter of 3 mm was coated with five kinds of sheet-like NbTi barriers having a Ti concentration of 200 μm and varied, and fitted with a copper pipe having an outer diameter of 6 mm, and 500 16 mm outer diameter
It was inserted into a copper billet of cm and covered with an electron beam.
The diameter of the billet was 50 mm by hot extrusion of 3000 tons at a temperature of 600 ° C. Then NbTi with a die
A wire was drawn so that the alloy filament was in the range of 34 to 1.3 μm. At this time, the NbTi barrier thickness was 2.3 to 0.08 μm. 5 of these wires
The sample was sampled at a length of 0 cm, the coated copper was dissolved in nitric acid, and the number of breaks in 500 filaments was measured. At the same time, the critical current density of 5 types of wire with 0.4 mm diameter was set to 5
It was measured at T, 4.2K.

点から好ましいことがわかる。From the result of the filament breakage ratio (FIG. 1),
It can be seen that if the Ti concentration of the NbTi barrier exceeds 30% by weight, the wire breakage rate greatly increases. The lowest Ti concentration is 0.7
The wire breakage rate is the lowest in the case of weight%, but it is apparent that it is suitable for practical use in the case of 30 weight% or less. From the results shown in Tables 1 and 2, the NbTi filament diameter is 30 to 2 μm.
The m-those having a critical current density of more than 2000 A / mm 2 are practical. The NbTi barrier thickness is 2-0.
It can be seen that the range of 1 μm is preferable in terms of the filament breakage rate and the critical current density.
