الوصف: Significant insights for critical current density (Jc) improvement in Bi-2212 super- conductor wires can be obtained by an accurate analysis of the structural and mi- crostructural properties evolving during the so-called partial-melt process, a heat treatment needed to improve grain connectivity and therefore gain high Jc. Here, we report an in-situ analysis by means of synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction performed, for the first time, during the heat treatment carried out with the very same temperature profile and reacting oxygen atmosphere in which the Bi-2212 wires are usually treated for practical applications. The obtained results show the thermal evolution of the Bi-2212 structure, focusing in particular on texturing and secondary phases formation. The role of the oxygen is discussed as well. Hence, the present investigation marks a significant advance for the comprehension of the phenomena involved in the wire fabrication process and provides useful insights for the process optimization as well.
