Zusammenfassung:The flux pinning energy and magnetic properties of Bi 1.64− x Pb 0.36 Cd x Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O y (BPCSCCO) with x =0.0, 0.02, 0.04 and 0.06 were studied. A series of Bi-2223 superconductor samples with a nominal composition of BPCSCCO was synthesized and the effect of Cd substitution for Bi was investigated. As a result, Cd addition has been found to improve the superconducting properties of the Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system. The effects of the annealing time and the amount of Cd doping on the structure, AC magnetic susceptibility, ρ – T curves and flux pinning energy were investigated. Also, for all samples the relation between the current and voltage in the mixed state was found to follow the model relationship V = α I β . The maximum value of β is 22.30, which is obtained for the sample with an annealing time of 270 h and a Cd content of 0.04.
