Use of the Polysaccharide Dextran as a Morphological Directing Agent in the Synthesis of High-Tc Superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-δ Sponges with Improved Critical Current Densities
Source abstract
Abstract
Sponge-like architectures of high-temperature superconductors have been produced for the first time by synthesis in the presence of the polysaccharide dextran. These materials are highly porous, fine grained superconductors in which the critical current density is improved over that available commercially by over an order of magnitude.
