Abstract :
The LNCMI has been involved since many years in the research and development of copper/stainless steel (Cu/SS) macrocomposite conductors for wire wound pulsed field magnets, generating magnetic fields up to 80 Tesla. The mechanical and electrical properties are adjusted to the magnet requirements by selecting the area fraction of the stainless steel reinforcement and the work-hardening state at the end of the drawing procedure.
