Abstract
A nickel-based semi-finished product, for making a high-temperature superconductor, embodied in the form of a strip or flat wire is produced and used as a base for physical-chemical coatings provided with a high-quality intense microstructural orientation. The semi-finished product has an improved granular structure provided with a stable cube texture. A fusion or powder metallurgy process including mechanical alloys makes a semi-finished product including a technically pure Ni or Ni alloy containing an Ag additive in a specified microalloy range. The product is shaped as a strip or flat wire by hot- and cold forming processes with a thickness reduction >50% The product is softened by annealing at 500 to 850° C. and is subsequently quenched. Afterwards, the product is exposed to the 80% cold shaping. A recrystallization annealing treatment is carried out to obtain an entire cubic texture.
