Abstract

For the first time MgB2 and MgCu2 were synthesized utilizing a dynamic loading technique. Particularly magnesium diboride is of great importance due to its superconducting properties. X-ray and electron microscopy analyses were carried out in order to characterize the products of the reaction. The method described can be used to produce pure MgB2.
