On August 13, 2008 SCI Engineered Materials, Inc. was notified it had been awarded a two-year contract by the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") for Phase II of a Small Business Innovation Research ("SBIR") project titled "Flux Pinning Additions to Increase Jc Performance in BSCCO-2112 Round Wire for Very High Field Magnets." The proposal included a funding request for approximately $750,000. The final amount of the award is subject to the completion of financial negotiations with the DOE.
High Jc performance in BSCCO-2212 is currently the only superconducting material that has been successfully manufactured in round wire form that works successfully in high magnetic fields over 25Tesla.
The company previously received a $97,900 DOE Financial Assistance Award for a Phase I SBIR that demonstrated that Jc performance can be increased with the addition of certain additives. The Phase I SBIR was successfully completed in the first half of 2008 which led to the Phase II application to conduct additional research.
