Abstract
Growth behavior of 211 particles in the Y-Ba-Cu-0 system was investiga ted using CuO and CuO + BaCuO melts. The inhibiting effect of Sn on th e growth of 211 particles was not as great for the specimen heat-treat ed using CuO + BaCuO melts. Fast growth of 211 particles was observed in the CuO melt at high temperature (1100-degrees-C), whereas the grow th of 211 particles was extraordinally suppressed by the addition of S n to the CuO melt. It is believed that Sn is an effective element for the refinement of 211 particles in the Y-Ba-Cu-O system but that addit ional Ba nullifies the refinement effect of the Sn.
