“…AsFigure 5shows, after 20 hrs no -Ti peaks are detected in the XRD pattern whereas peaks at the initial position of pure Nb remain. The Nb-Ti binary phase diagram shows a continuous substitutional solid solution at high temperatures, with a body-centered cubic crystal structure (Im3 ̅ m) across the whole composition range and a random distribution of Nb and Ti atoms in the unit cell[28]. However, at lower temperature we expect phase separation into -Nb(Ti) and Ti(Nb), and as the lattice parameter of Nb is not greatly affected by alloying with Ti the XRD peak positions for the -Nb(Ti) alloy and pure Nb will be indistinguishable.…”

Superconducting NbTi alloys have been successfully fabricated by a simple powder processing route involving ball-milling, pressing and annealing. The microstructure and superconducting properties of the NbTi alloys after each processing step have been characterized and compared to the microstructure and performance of NbTi wire manufactured by a conventional thermomechanical process. At the early stages of milling, a lamellar structure of pure Nb and Ti regions is formed, which is gradually refined by further milling leading to the introduction of a high density of microstructural defects. After 20 hrs milling, diffusion of Ti into the Nb generates a matrix of -Nb-50wt%Ti alloy, with a small grain size (50 nm) and high strain (1.8%), containing an even distribution of thin Ti flakes (10-40 nm). In some regions, these Ti flakes contain a supersaturation of Nb as a result of the energetic ball-milling process. The Tc (8.1 K) and Bc2 (9.8 T at 4.2 K) values of this as-milled material are slightly lower than those reported for Nb-47wt%Ti due to the impurity content and lattice disorder. Sintering at 400 ᵒC leads to well consolidated, high density bulk samples, but annealing at temperatures above 600 ᵒC decreases Jc values due to excessive grain growth and strain release. Annealing at lower temperatures results in higher Jc values, a shift of the pinning force density peak towards higher fields and the presence of thermodynamically stable α-Ti precipitates which are effective pinning sites leading to critical current density values comparable with those of commercial NbTi wires.
