Abstract
Niobium-tin conductors are the class of conductors which allow the fab rication of superconducting magnets that generate over 9 T at 4.2 K an d 12 T at 1.8 K. Oxford Superconducting Technology makes a wide range of niobium-tin conductors, One such conductor is a fully bonded intern al tin, Nb3Sn composite, The process for the manufacture of the fully bonded Nb3Sn conductor is described, The process is applicable to cond uctors for high current applications and applications requiring low AC losses. Results for both classes of conductors are reported.
