YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$, Y2BaCuO5, and binary compounds in the Ba-Cu-O system with the nominal composition of Ba2CuO3, BaCuO2, Ba3Cu4O7, Ba3Cu5O8 were synthesized to investigate the heat evolutions and crystalline phases in the hydration reaction of orthorhombic YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ phase. The observed crystalline phases were YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$, Y2BaCuO5, and BaCuO2, or Ba2Cu3O5＋x, and some amount of noncrystalline phase in the Ba-Cu system comounds. In contact with distilled water, YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ and Y2BaCuO5 did not have considerable heat liberation, but in the binary compounds of the Ba-Cu-O system, the amount of total heat liberation was increased with respect to the Cu content. It might be that the reaction of high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ with water and/or moisture originated from the unusual oxidation state of Cu ion and the presence of amorphous Ba-Cu oxide compound. The degradation of high Tc superconductor by moisture and water could be controlled by restricting the heterogeneous distribution of Tc comlposition and the formation of second phase, such as stable Y2BaCuO5, and the resulting unstable Ba-Cu oxide compound.

The melting temperature and critical temperature(Tc) of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with deferent content impurities of PbO and $BaPbO_3$ were studied. When the PbO was used as addition in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$, although the melting point could be reduced, the superconductivity(the transition width, ${\Delta}T_c$) became poor. From the XRD pattern of the sintered mixture of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO it was known that there is a reaction between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and PbO, and the product is $BaPbO_3$. In the process of the reaction the superconducting phase of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ was decreased and in the sample $BaPbO_3$ became the main phase. Therefore the superconductivity was reduced. $BaPbO_3$ was chosen as the impurity for the comparative study. The single phase BaPbO3 was synthesized by the simple way from both mixtures of $BaPbO_3$ and PbO, $BaPbO_3\;and\;PbO_2$. Deferent contents of $BaPbO_3$(10%, 20%, 30%) were added in the $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. By the phase analysis in the XRD patterns it was proved that there werenot reactions between $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ and $BaPbO_3$. When $BaPbO_3$ was used as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ the superconductivity was much better than PbO as impurity in $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$. But the melting point of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ with $BaPbO_3$ could not be found when the temperature was lower than $1000^{\circ}C$ in the DTA measurement.

In this paper, YbBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ superconductor was sintered by means of conventional solid reaction and the textured YbBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ was prepared by the Melted-Condensed Process in which SmBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ crystal was used as seed crystal to introduce the YbBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ crystal growth. The texture of YbBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ was examined by X-ray diffraction, and the fracture of YbBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ sample was observed by SEM, which proved the sample was well oriented. After oxygen absorption of the textured YbBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{x}$ sample, it's critical temperature was measureed to be 86K.eed to be 86K.

Synthesis of ferromagnetic composite materials for the $Cu-BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ system by mechanical alloying (MA) has been investigated at room temperature. A mixture of copper and barium ferrite with a weight ratio of $Cu:BaFe_{12}O_{19}=4:1$, 3 : 2, 2 : 3 and 1 : 4 was used. It is found that $Cu-BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ composite powders in which $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ is dispersed in copper matrix are successfully produced by mechanical alloying of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ with Cu for 80 min. in all composition. The change in X-ray diffraction patterns and magnetic properties reflects the details for the formation of ferromagnetic metal matrix composite of pure Cu and $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ during mechanical alloying. Magnetization of $Cu-BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ composite powders gradually increases with increasing the amounts of barium ferrite, whereas coercive force of MA powders gradually decreases due to the refinement of barium ferrite powders with ball milling. However, it can be seen that the coercivity of $Cu-BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ MA composite powders with a weight ratio of $Cu:BaFe_{12}O_{19}=4:1$ and 3 : 2 ball-milled for 80 min. is still high value of 1400 Oe and 1450 Oe, respectively suggesting that the refinement of barium ferrite powders during ball milling process tend to be suppressed due to the ductile copper.

$YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ samples were fabricated by MPMG(Melt Powdered Melt Growth). Intitial composition of the mixed powders were prepared as follow ; $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ : $Y_2BaCuO_5$ = 1:0, 1:0.2, 1:0.3, 1:0.4. After the first melt and cooling, 5wt% to 20wt% fo Ag power was added to the powder. Effects of the different initial $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and Ag addition amount on $J_c$ and magnetization of $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ fabricated by MPMG method were investigated. The critical current density increased with the amount of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and Ag. It was also observed that the difference between negative and positive magnetization in the magnetization hysteresis measurement at 77K was larger than the case where $Y_2BaCuO_5$and Ag were not added to the $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ powders. It is concluded that $Y_2BaCuO_5$ sample with 40wt% amount of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and 20wt% amount of Ag has not only the largest $J_c$ but also the improved pinning effect.

YBa2Cu3Ox ceramics superconductors fabricated using solid state reaction usually contain second phases, such as BaCuO2 and CuO. These second phases are located long the grain boundaries and enhance the abnormal growth of YBa2Cu3Ox grains and, consequently, generate the microcracks. These second phaases were reduced by adding Y2BaCuO5 into solid state reacted YBa2Cu3Ox ceramics. Y2BaCuO5 reacts with grain boundary second phases and reduces the grian size of the ceramics. It was observed the critical current density was improved by adding Y2BaCuO5 into solid state reacted YBa2Cu3Ox ceramic superconductor.

The formation of the $YBa_2Cu_30_{7_\delta}$(Y123) thick films has been investigated by a surface diffusion Imcess between $3BaCu0_2$+2CuO composite coating powder and a $Y_2BaCuO_5$(Y211). This reaction has been studied in the temperature of $930^{\circ}C$ and $940^{\circ}C$ for 2h to 10h in an oxygen atmosphere. The Y211 substrates becomes covered by co-precipitation of Y123 grains and CuO inclusions. X-ray diflractotnctn. revealed that the lager consisted of an orthorhombic crystal structure. The maximum Jc of $400A/\textrm{cm}^2$ is abtained when the specimen was heat-treated at $930^{\circ}C$ for 6h on the Y211 substrate.
