Abstract
A process for producing a composite oxide superconducting wire is disclosed, which comprises the steps of compacting material powder for an oxide superconductor in a noble metal pipe; heating the metal pipe filled with the material powder at a temperature ranging between an upper limit corresponding to the lowest melting point of any one of constituent components in the material powder and a lower limit which is lower by 100.degree. C. than said upper limit to sinter the material powder and cooling the product at a cooling velocity of less than 50.degree. C./min, and further including a series of wire-drawing, annealing and sintering steps. Furthermore, an intermediate layer of noble metal can be interposed between the oxide superconductor and the metal pipe.
