SEM images of the annealed samples for 96 and 120 hours indicate very good alignment with the longitudinal rod axis. In all cases, X-ray diffraction patterns show that the Bi-2212 phase is the major one. The magnetization measurements have been carried out as a function of the magnetic field up to 9 kOe. J (c) values of the samples were calculated by using the Bean model. The results indicate that the different annealing time has no significant effects on the T (c) values but, significant change on the critical current values of samples, J (c), has been obtained for sample annealed at 96 hours. We also found that the maximum critical density of J (c) is 5.5x10(5) A/cm(2) at 10 K for the 96 hours annealed sample.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBi-2212LFZ techniqueMagnetic propertiesCritical current density (J(c))Conference Object26487387810.1007/s10948-012-1874-92-s2.0-84876486179Q3WOS:000317014500027Q3
