Abstract

MgB$_2$ and FeTi composites was prepared to study the effect of FeTi particles on superconductivity of MgB$_2$. The sample, which had contained magnesium, boron and FeTi particles, was synthesized by the Commercial Stainless Steel Tube Enveloping Technique(COSSET) at 92$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. The structure and properties of the sample was investigated by XRD, SEM, and SQUID magnetometer. It was found that there was a little change of T$_{c}$ compared with pure MgB$_2$ superconductor in spite of high percentage of FeTi particles, and there was no proof of structure change of MgB$_2$ superconductor due to FeTi particles. But the high porosity which was appeared in the pure MgB$_2$ was disappeared in the composites. We conclude that FeTi particles do not influence the superconductivity of MgB$_2$ and it is expected that fe-Ti material system will be a good material for a tube of the PIT process and for a substrate of the film.m.
