[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention provides a method for beneficiation of only superconductor fine particles from a mixture of fine particles consisting of superconductors, normal conductors, insulators, etc. The present invention relates to a method for classifying superconductor fine particles having a particle size within a certain range from a mixture of superconductor fine particles.

(Prior Art) In recent years, it has been discovered that by sintering a ceramic material with a certain composition, a sintered body exhibiting superconductivity at a low temperature relatively close to room temperature can be obtained.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, not all of the sintered bodies obtained as described above exhibit superconductivity, and they may contain impurities such as normal conductors or insulators. It has been difficult to selectively remove such impurities.

In addition, no suitable method for classifying superconductor particles has been found, and the Powder Engineering Handbook (edited by Kou Iitani,
There was no other way than to apply the general particle classification method described in Asakura Shoten) to superconductor fine particles.

Conventional general particle classification methods include the so-called sieving method, in which nets with different mesh sizes are stacked in order from the largest to the largest, and the terminal sedimentation velocity of particles settling in a fluid is used. The so-called sedimentation method is known.

However, for example, in the sieve method, it is impossible to produce a sieve opening of less than a few, so it is not possible to classify extremely small particles. Furthermore, pressurizing force is often applied to the fine particles in order to pass them through a sieve, and in this case it cannot be carried out in a vacuum.

Furthermore, in the sedimentation method, since the sedimentation rate depends not only on the particle size but also on its specific gravity, strict classification is not possible. Furthermore, when liquid phase sedimentation is used, it takes time to separate the liquid and fine particles, and since the sedimentation rate is generally slow, it takes time to classify them.

また当然のことながら、真空中では実施できない。Also, as a matter of course, this cannot be carried out in a vacuum.

The present invention is based on the use of the Meissner effect, which is a magnetic property unique to superconductors.

The Meissner effect is an effect in which when a magnetic field is applied to superconductor particles at a temperature at which they exhibit superconductivity, the particles exhibit complete diamagnetism. That is,
When a magnetic field is applied to powder containing superconductor fine particles at the above-mentioned temperature, particles having a diameter of about 0.1 μm or more levitate in space due to the Meissner effect. On the other hand, particles with smaller diameters and fine particles such as normal conductors and insulators do not float because the Meissner effect does not occur.

Therefore, by collecting the floating superconductor fine particles in this manner, only the superconductor fine particles can be accurately beneficiated from the powder containing normal conductors, insulators, and the like. Furthermore, it is possible to easily classify superconductor fine particles having a particle size of 0.1 μs or more and fine particles smaller than that, which has been difficult with conventional classification methods.

Furthermore, when the magnetic field is uniform in the horizontal plane and the gradient of the magnetic field is directed in the downward direction, the height at which the superconductor particles float depends on the size of the particles. This is because the force that causes superconductor fine particles to levitate is generated by the repulsive force that occurs when an applied magnetic field is expelled from inside the particle to the outside. That is, when applying a magnetic field from below, for example, the magnetic flux density is high near the bottom, and the higher it floats, the lower the magnetic flux density is. Then, the small and light superconductor particles float to a position where only a small repulsion force is generated that balances their weight. In addition, for large and heavy superconductor fine particles, their repulsive force and weight balance near the bottom, and they remain near the bottom.

By selectively collecting a portion of the floating superconductor fine particles at a certain height in this manner, only superconductor fine particles having a desired particle size can be classified.

Regarding the floating position, fine particles having a relatively large particle size float to a low position, and fine particles having a relatively small particle size float to a high position. Thereafter, when the stage 4 is horizontally moved in the direction of the arrow by the pulse motor 8, the fine particles having a large particle size collide with the partition plate 13 and remain on the chamber 4b. Fine particles with a small particle size jump over the partition plate 13 and are located above the chamber 4C.

First, in a vacuum and at a temperature at which superconducting fine particles exhibit superconductivity, as shown in FIG.
.. Superconductor fine particles 1 with a particle size of 1μ or more, superconductor fine particles with a particle size of less than about 0.1H2. A mixture consisting of other impurity fine particles 3 is introduced. Next, when a direct current is applied to the conductor fi 6, a direct current magnetic field 16 as shown in FIG. 3 is generated, and only the superconducting fine particles 1 having a particle size of about 0.1 μm or more are levitated.

At the same time, when a biased sine wave current is applied to the conducting wire 14 from the power source 15, a traveling wave magnetic field 17 as shown in FIG. 4 is generated. This traveling wave magnetic field 17 applies a force to the particle 1 to move in the direction of the arrow.

In this device, the classification level can be controlled by the strength of the magnetic field. For example, if a traveling wave magnetic field 17 is applied while a weak DC magnetic field 16 is applied, only light particles 1 with a relatively small particle size will float and move, and if the DC magnetic field 16 is then strengthened, the particles will move. Fine particles 1 having a large diameter and being heavy move while floating. Moreover, the moving speed can be controlled by the strength of the traveling wave magnetic field 17. Furthermore, since there is no mechanical movement in this type of device, there are fewer dead lines and less noise.
