Abstract

We report on the synthesis of superconducting Nb3Al intermetallic with a critical temperature of 18 K. Nb–3Al powder compacts were used to fabricate Nb3Al intermetallic by Mechanically Activated SHS (MA-SHS) and Mechanically Activated ElectroThermal Explosion (MA-ETE). Phase composition of the obtained samples was characterized by XRD, SEM, optical microscopy, EDX, and atomic emission spectroscopy (AES).
