cudawuda, I do not have the number, but here is a description of the patent..This says to me that CPSX has the ability to develop (is developing??)superconductor connectors for semiconductors....Very cutting edge and a second market unrelated to metal matrix composites, although based upon the same technological approach...Makes CPSX look like a LNOP or CVCI tech companies with two effective, related, but different business capabilities... Composite Ceramic Superconducting Filaments for Superconducting Cable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Report Summary: This program has established the feasibility of manufacturing composite ceramic superconducting filaments for superconducting cable, based on copper-clad YBa2Cu3O7-x ceramic powders, to render the material in the form of flexible fine diameter green fibers by dry spinning, and to rapidly sinter the fibers to produce filaments with transport Jc as high as 2800 A/sq.cm. The sintered fibers can be handled, and the feasibility of cladding these fibers with copper by electrodeposition has been supported. The fibers are spun from a suspension of powder in a mixture of solvents containing several acrylic polymers, a plasticizer, a cross-linking agent, and a dispersant. The dry 'green' fiber is a flexible monofilament containing 49-55 volume percent (85-87 weight percent) ceramic powder in a polymeric matrix. A multiple zone sintering process was developed to rapidly densify the YBa2Cu3O7-x fibers. Keywords: Yttrium, Barium, Copper oxide, Superconductors. (MJM).
