Abstract
Single-core MgB2/Ti wires have been made from mixed (in situ) and intensively milled (mechanically alloyed) Mg+B powders. Both powders were oxidized at room temperature for 48h and also by heat treatment at 400°C/1h in air. Critical current density and resistivity measurements were performed for the samples with oxidized powders and also for those protected in glove box with high purity Ar. It was found that oxidation of in situ mixture is slightly decreasing critical current density. Surprisingly, the oxidation of much finer mechanically alloyed powder is improving Jc in spite of increased MgB2 resistivity. Jc at 10T increase by 47–100% was measured for mechanically alloyed powder oxidized at room temperature. This allows a safety handling with intensively milled Mg+B powders in air.
