The multi-layer composite development primarily aims to develop and test the components of the next generation of hadron colliders (e.g., Large Hadron Collider - LHC) consisting of superconducting raw materials. Multilayer sheet is very similar to the commonly used NbTi wire products, a 2D version of the commercial wire. These composites consist of layers such as NbTi superconductor, Nb diffusion barrier (between NbTi and Cu) and Cu stabilizer. In β-NbTi superconducting alloys, α-Ti precipitates are primary flux pinning centers that maintain stable superconductivity. A multi-step series of heat treatments and cold-forming processes can develop the flux pinning centers. Practically, this process means three heat treatments of constant period and temperature and drawing or rolling between the heat treatments.The study aimed to describe the behavior of the cold-rolled (ε = 3.35) Nb53Ti47w% alloys during isothermal heating at 673 K as a function of heating time. The processes during the aging were investigated by the in-situ XRD method in the heating chamber. The X-ray diffraction patterns were evaluated by Rietveld refinement. The thermally activated spinodal decomposition and precipitation processes were described based on the phases identified at the individual heat treatment steps and their lattice parameters. The in-situ study also revealed an increase in α-Ti precipitation with time and decomposition that co-occurs. This is the basic study that prepares the applicability of the alloy. |
