The seeded infiltration and growth (SIG) technique offers near-net shape processing of bulk superconductors with significant improvement in reduced Y2BaCuO5 (Y-211) inclusion size, reduced shrinkage, reduced porosity and improved current density compared to samples fabricated by top seeded melt growth (TSMG). Y2Ba4CuMOy phases where M = Nb, Mo, W, Ta, etc., have been shown to form nano-scale inclusions in the YBa2Cu3Oy (Y-123) phase matrix and to contribute to enhanced magnetic flux pinning in these materials. In this paper, we describe the introduction of Y2Ba4CuWOy nano-scale inclusions into bulk superconductors processed by the seeded infiltration growth process. Critical current density, J(c), in excess of 10(5) A/cm(2) at 77 K in self-field is observed for samples containing Y2Ba4CuWOy.
