The effect of different cooling procedures, after sintering, on the microstructural and superconducting properties of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox (B-2212) screen-printed tapes has been investigated. It was found that the amorphous phase originally present in grain boundaries at the sintering temperature undergoes a conversion to the Bi-2212 phase during slow cooling. However, the excess oxygen absorbed during slow cooling (in 21% oxygen) disturbs the order and ordering process of Bi-2212 crystals, but if the slow cooling process is conducted under monotonically reduced oxygen partial pressure, to ensure that the optimum oxidation state at sintering temperature of the Bi-2212 phase can be retained during the cooling procedure, tapes are then characterized by narrow grain boundaries and the highest Jc value (approximately-greater-than)104 A/cm2 at 77 K and 0 T.
