ABSTRACT:
A rotationally symmetrical molded part of a high-temperature superconductor achieves a critical current density of j.sub.c .gtoreq.800 A/cm.sup.2 at a temperature of 77K, by using a powder mixture (8) having the stoichiometric composition of Bi.sub.2+x EA.sub.3 Cu.sub.2 O.sub.y, where -0.15<x<0.4; EA=an alkaline earth metal or a mixture of alkaline earth metals, in particular a mixture of Sr and Ca in the ratio of Sr:Ca=(2+z):(1-z), where 0<x<0.2; 8.ltoreq.y.ltoreq.8.3. With the aid of a conveying chute (9), the powder mixture (8) is brought uniformly at room temperature with a grain size of <50 .mu.m into a silver mold (5) which is arranged inside a rotating fusion mold (4), open at one side, in a furnace (3). Subsequently, the fusion mold (4) is accelerated, heated to 500.degree. C. and held for approximately 30 min at 500.degree. C. After subsequent partial melting at a temperature of T.sub.m K to T.sub.m +6K, where T.sub.m =melting temperature of the pulverulent starting material, for 30 min to 2 h at an oxygen partial pressure of p(O.sub.2).gtoreq.0.8 bar, a first long-term annealing is performed at 840.degree. C. to 850.degree. C. for 20 h to 40 h. Thereafter, a second long-term annealing is performed at a reduced oxygen partial pressure of p(O.sub.2) and, below 700.degree. C., cooling to room temperature in a nitrogen atmosphere. There can be a subsequent third long-term annealing.
