Chapter 367: The Germanic guy who lowered his head

Although the equipment that looks weird in front of us is producing high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials, Bruce Valk still stubbornly believes that this may just be a manifestation.

Maybe Professor Xu randomly assembled a strange-looking device and produced some superconducting materials with poor quality?

Testing, that must be done.

It's not only because of the transaction of the ASDEX device, but also because of his inner doubts.

With the help of an engineer from the Western Superconducting Group, Bruce Valk removed a piece of material from the equipment that was producing superconducting materials and put it into a sample bag.

With the help of the product quality testing room of Western Superconductor Group, Bruce Valk began to personally detect various parameters of this superconducting material.

For a superconducting material, the most important thing is superconducting performance.

He didn't even do the most basic tunnel scanning electron microscope data acquisition, so he sent the materials he collected himself to the measurement equipment.

The superconducting electromagnetic testing system connected to liquid nitrogen bottles, temperature controllers, ammeters and other equipment is turned on. The addition of liquid nitrogen quickly reduces the temperature of the superconducting material on the measurement and control panel.

In the blink of an eye, the temperature of the material had dropped below zero.

As the temperature dropped little by little, the detection room became quiet, and everyone turned their attention to the display screen connected to the computer and the test system.

When the temperature approaches the transition temperature, when the temperature control system shows that the temperature reaches 152K, the resistance curve that was originally stable and fell directly to the bottom like a cliff in the next second.

Just like everyone saw in previous test reports, the 152K high-temperature superconducting is perfectly replicated.

Even if I don’t want to believe it, after seeing the bottoming resistance data, Bruce Valk had to believe that in the field of high-temperature superconducting materials, China is really ahead.

Although there are some other projects that have not been tested, the critical Tc temperature of 152K is in front of you. It is basically impossible to expect to find defects or vulnerabilities in other tests.

After all, this is a superconducting material. If other properties are changed, the critical temperature will definitely change accordingly.

On the side, Claire Blaine asked in surprise: "Mass production is incredible. You have really done it. Can you tell me how it is done?"

Xu Chuan smiled and said relaxedly: "This is actually not difficult."

"Its industrial preparation methods are two types, one is high-temperature sintering and pressing, and the other is through vapor deposition."

"The former is to mix the prepared superconducting powder with a high-purity carbon powder with a purity of 99.99% in a specific proportion, stir and grind it, mix it evenly and then press it into molding, then heat it to a fixed temperature point, and then cool it to room temperature at a rate of 1°C/min to obtain a superconducting block with a plate structure."

"This method is used to make superconducting materials with strange shape requirements, such as your spiral stone 7X's strong magnetic superconducting coil with twisted outer layer, which can be made in this way."

"As for the chemical deposition method, it is to use a thin layer of polymethyl methacrylate PMMA as the substrate, and use an inert gas that does not react with the superconducting material as a protection treatment, and then perform a deposition treatment under special conditions."

"As for the specific and detailed process and key steps, when the trading technology is reached, Western Superconductor Group will arrange engineers and technicians to give you detailed explanations."

After listening to Xu Chuan's introduction, Kleil Blaine thought for a while and said: "But judging from the electron microscope data of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite materials, it has obvious nanostructure rules. How do you ensure that the material achieves nanostructures in the manufacturing process of these two methods?"

In fact, after obtaining the samples provided by the Sichuan-Hai Materials Institute, the Planck Institute of Plasma Physics has not found a way to study them.

After all, if it can be copied, there is no need to trade.

High-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials have not applied for patents, which means that as long as they can copy them, they can not only use them themselves, but also apply for patents in reverse, which can prohibit the other party from selling this material internationally.

This is not impossible.

In the early years, ‘Compound Artemisother’ was a good example.

‘Compound Artemisole’ is the first drug with a new chemical structure discovered by China, and it is also an original drug of China that has been widely recognized internationally.

By the end of 2005, it has been designated as the first-line drug for malaria treatment by 26 Asian and African countries, and it is a milestone in the treatment of malaria, a highly contagious disease.

However, because the patent was taken away by Swiss Novartis, the compound artemether produced in China cannot pass the international WTO certification and cannot be exported.

It is obviously a technology developed by myself, but it has to be controlled by others at my doorstep. This kind of thing is so heartbreaking.

However, this kind of thing is unlikely to happen in Xu Chuan's hands.

The high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite material has not been patented because he has enough confidence in this material. It is very difficult and very small to decode and copy it.

And the fact is just as he expected, the Planck Institute of Plasma Physics could not replicate at all, so it had to come and trade.

Hearing this question, Xu Chuan said with a smile: "It is a catalyst that can automatically optimize the crystal structure of copper-carbon-silver composite materials, but this is the core of synthetic superconducting materials. If you want to know, you need to wait until the contract is signed."

Kleil Boolean shrugged and said with a little disappointment: "Okay."

It is understandable to involve this core. He just asked curiously and did not mean to explore the core secrets. However, when faced with this situation, any material researcher would probably feel itchy to explore the truth.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!......

Researchers of Planck plasma physics research stayed in the factory of Western Superconductor Group for three days, conducted complete and detailed tests on superconducting materials produced from small assembly lines, and also confirmed the industrial production of copper-carbon-silver superconducting materials.

As for Xu Chuan, he never stayed with him any longer.

His time is very precious, and it would be great to be able to accompany him on the same day. He handed over the follow-up matters to others.

The industrialization of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials involves the transaction of ASDEX devices. Not only did the Sichuan-Hai Materials Research Institute come to the Qixia Controlled Nuclear Fusion Project, but also personnel are arranged to assist.

On the high-speed rail, Fan Pengyue and Xu Chuan looked at the distant scenery. After looking for a while, he suddenly turned his head and sighed: "I have to say, it's you. As soon as you took action, you even lowered your head to the proud Germanic old man."

"You didn't see the expression of the engineer named Valk. When the materials produced in the industrial process met the standards, they looked ugly like they had eaten shit."

"I guess I'm afraid I'll be hit hard this time. After all, you've done something that they can't do."

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "There are still some differences. The finishing and automation in German are indeed very good, but in the field of materials, it is not qualified to say that it is the best in the world."

"That researcher Valk is just a pride in his heart, so there is no need to pay too much attention to him. I believe there are still some sober people who can see the right aspects."

"Otherwise, the cooperation will not be negotiated."

To be honest, in some fields, Germanic or Europe are indeed at the forefront of the world.

Such as lithography machines, cutting-edge CNC machine tools, optical systems and lenses, semiconductors, etc.

However, many of these technologies actually come from the last century and are the results of the peak of Europe in the last century. Now it is just a matter of continuing to make some optimizations on it.

Since the Third Industrial Revolution, Europe's technological and innovation capabilities have been declining, and now they are almost at the bottom.

And in the field of materials, especially in the field of superconducting materials, they are even less qualified to look down on others.

Today, major breakthroughs in superconducting materials are basically made in the East Asia circle, such as the BI series of Sakura Country, and the second-generation superconducting materials in Goryeo.

Europe has basically no breakthrough in the field of superconducting materials.

If there are any, even the second-level high-temperature superconducting materials, they will not choose to purchase them from outside.
