Abstract
A dip-coating process to obtain controlled, uniform coatings on silver shea thed Bi-2223 wires suitable for the fabrication of multifilamentary tapes i s reported. Tapes with continuous fully connected MgO resistive barrier lay ers 1 to 17 mu m thick have been produced and characterized. The correlatio n between their microstructure, electric transport and magnetic properties has been analyzed. An effective reduction of the interfilamentary coupling with a minimum degradation of the tape performance has been obtained for 1 to 3 mu m thick barrier layers.
