Abstract
The centers of a plurality of copper tubes are filled with tin and drawn to form Cu-Sn wires which are cabled around a core Nb wire; a plurality of these strands are provided in a copper tube, or a copper foil or finely wound copper wire; and a plurality of said tubes are packed into a copper can to form a billet which is drawn to produce a multifilament wire; and heat treatment is applied to cause the tin to diffuse and form the intermetallic Nb.sub.3 Sn at the surface of the Nb filaments to produce the ultimate superconducting wire product.
