Microhardness as a tool for the filament density and metal sheath analysis in MgB2/Fe/(Cu) wires

Vickers microhardness measurements have been carried out on MgB 2 composite wires deformed in iron sheaths. Because the local hardness of these composite materials can be simply measured, we can use these values as an indication of the density of the ceramic core. An array of microhardness measureme...
