A comparative study on the effect of PbO (10-30 nm) and HfO2 (60-80 nm) additions on the superconducting properties of (Bi1.6Pb0.4)Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 ((Bi,Pb)-2223) superconductor in the bulk form was carried out. The structure and the microstructure of prepared samples were examined by powder XRD and SEM, respectively. The transition temperature Tc and critical current density Jc was determined by standard dc four-probe method. SEM micrographs showed a homogeneous distribution of Pb and Hf in the samples. It was observed that PbO and HfO2 additions enhanced Jc for all added samples. Jc was the highest for x= 0.05 wt. % of PbO (1130 mA/cm2 at 77 K and 1930 mA/cm2 at 30 K) and HfO2 (900 mA/cm2 at 77 K and 1760 mA/cm2 at 30 K) addition. This study showed that the addition of PbO and HfO2 nanopowder provided extra flux pinning centers in the (Bi, Pb)-2223. PbO with smaller particle size showed higher Jc compared with HfO2 which has a larger particle size.

The present study was aimed at determining the rate of degradation of the transport critical current density Jc of ceramic YBCO stored in atmosphere, as a function of temperature. The transport critical current of ring-shaped samples was measured by the inductance technique. The samples were prepared by the standard method. The results show that annealing at 100 °C for over 500 h caused practically no degradation of Jc. Above 100 °C the rate of degradation increases rapidly with temperature.
