Three Bi2212 (BiaSr1.94Ca0.89Cu2O8+x,a= 2.17, 2.12, 2.07) powders with different Bi contents were made by the spray pyrolysis technology. The wire made from Bi2.07Sr1.94Ca0.89Cu2O8+xpowder had the largest processing window (Tpwindow) and the highestJe. It eventually heldJeof 1187 A/mm2andJcof 5805 A/mm2at 4.2 K/self-field sintered under 0.1 MPa O2. ThisJevalue was 39% higher than that of wires made from the traditional powder composition of Bi2.17Sr1.94Ca0.89Cu2O8+x. The microstructure, the phase composition, and the current-carrying property of the wires were analyzed comprehensively. The key conclusion was as follows: (1) The melting temperature range (ΔT) obtained from DSC for Bi2212 powder might be an important index to evaluate its composition homogeneity. The lower ΔTmeant better composition homogeneity of the powder and corresponded to a largerTpwindow for the wire. (2) The crystal size and the texture of Bi2212 in the sintered wires were both influenced by that of Ag. Both larger crystal size and better texture of Ag were beneficial to increase that of Bi2212 in the sintered wire. (3) Holding high phase purity and high texture of Bi2212 phase in the wires were key factors to hold highJc. (4) The micro-area XRD was used for the first time to obtain the phase composition, the microstructure, and the texture in Bi2212 sintered wires. It will be adopted sufficiently in the future study. The above results provided insightful information to understand both the phase evolution of the sintered wire and to improve its current-carrying property.
