  1. Intro 3G-HTC Corporation • Founded in 2011 to commercialize a new nanotechnology and superconductor products resulting from a decade of self funded laboratory research by Dr. Anatoly Rokhvarger. Unique , Patented, Cost-effective and Commercially Viable Ceramic Processing to produce composite high temperature superconductor (HTS) macro-ceramic leads and cost effective electric round wire round wire. • Goal: sublicense and/or manufacture the major electrical engineering material; the next (Third) Generation High Temperature Superconductor electric wire and related products (3G-HTS). • By replacing traditional electric copper wire with inexpensive 3G superconducting multi-filament (round) wire, industries realize a 5 – 10x decrease in cost, weight, size/diameter, and power heat losses of electrical cables, motors, transformers and generator rotors saving up to 20% power consumption, yet can transmit power at room temperature like copper. • Multi-billion dollar world market potential – Broad applications in power transmission systems and cables, data centers, energy storage, Internet and telecommunications networks, electrical equipment, super-computers, defense, marine, aviation/transportation, MRI and other medical apps July 2012

  2. Opportunity Unique Advantages 3G HTS electric wire innovation consists of six interrelated patented inventions;1) the initial material formulation consisting of YBCO ceramic powder, silver powder dope and a silicone polymer multi-purpose additive; 2) a method of deep adhesion coating of continuous metal substrate round filament with HTS ceramic powder suspension; 3) a method of uniform magnetic orientation of YBCO grains within green coating layer; 4) a method for the chemical-ceramic engineering processing resulting in fully-dense sintered HTS macro-ceramic leads; 5) a new product - HTS ceramic coated continuous round filaments that we named 3G HTS electric wire; and 6) the fully mechanized conveyor manufacturing method using inexpensive equipment for “substrate-filament-reel” – to – “3G HTS-wire-reel” production.

  4. Major Engineering Advantages. • 3G HTS wire and cable at liquid nitrogen temperature can transmit electric current density 15-20kA/cm2, which is the most beneficial range for HTS cables and HTS wire applications; • The Cost : Performance ratio (C/P, $/kA – meter) of 3G HTS wire C/P=$7-9/kA-m while copper has a C/P= $20-50/kA-m. C/P of 3G-HTS is at the threshold of $10/kA-m being defined by the US DOE as the ability of HTS wire to compete with copper electric wire; • The technologically available minimum diameter of the elementary 3G HTS-YBCO filament is 60 microns or 0.06mm. This 3G HTS filament can transmit electricity comparable to copper wire with a diameter of 6 millimeters but with 3-5 times decreasing heat losses. • As opposed to 2G HTS tape, 3G HTS filaments • are as reliable and workable as ordinary • copper wire filaments and they: • high magnetic sustainability to be efficiently • used in coils of electric motors, • transformers and generator rotors ; • can be woven into multi-filament electric • wire or cable of any diameter for any high • level current carrying capacity capacity; • easy spliced with each other; do not need • silver sheath; • 8-9 micron thickness of the HTS ceramic • coating layer makes 3G HTS filaments quench effect resistant • do not chemically degrade (are permanently resistant) during storage and service in air • or liquid nitrogen environment.

This makes 3G HTS wire very efficient for HTS cables and other electric engineering applications; • The Cost : Performance ratio (C/P, $/kA – meter) of 3G HTS wire is C/P=$7 –$9/kA-m, while copper wirehas C/P=$20 – $50/kA-m. C/P ratio of 3G HTS wire is at the threshold of $10/kA-m being defined by the US DOE for the ability for HTS wire to compete with traditional copper electric wire; • The technologically available minimum diameter of the elementary 3G HTS-YBCO filament is 60 microns or 0.06mm. This 3G HTS wire can transmit electricity as copper wire with diameter 6 millimeters but 3 – 5x decreasing heat losses. 3GHTS wire is well competitive with traditional copper wire
