Appeal No. 98-2457 Application No. 08/851,312 Claims 28. A process for manufacturing a superconducting elongated article including the steps of: filling a metal pipe with material powder of a superconducting compound oxide; subjecting the metal pipe filled with the material powder first to cold-plastic deformation and then to hot-plastic deformation to reduce the cross section of the metal pipe; sintering the material powder filled in the metal pipe; and then controlling the cooling of the resulting metal pipe containing sintered ceramic material powder to a rate of less than 50EC/min. 40. A process for manufacturing s [sic,a] superconducting elongated article [sic] the steps of: filling material powder of a superconducting compound oxide into a metal pipe made of at least one [sic] selected from the group consisting of Ag, Au, Pt, Pd, Rh, Ir, Ru, Os, Cu, Al, Fe, Ni, Cr, Ti, Mo, W and Ta or alloys including these metals as the base; subjecting the metal pipe filled with the material powder to hot-plastic deformation [sic] reduce the cross section of the metal pipe to such extent that the cross section of the metal pipe is reduced at a dimensional reduction ratio ranging from 16% to 92% under a heated condition, so that the material powder filled in the metal pipe is sintered; and then cooling the resulting metal pipe containing sintered ceramic material powder therein slowly at a rate of a less than 50EC/min. 15Page: Previous 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
