The specimen was prepared by a stoichiometric mixture of Mg and B. The specimen that had been enveloped in the commercial stainless steel tube was synthesized for 2 hours at 1193 K. X-ray spectra showed there were no second phases like MgO. The transition temperature of the specimen was 37.5 K with a sharp transition width within 1K. The specimen showed a good connection between grains and critical current density as calculated with the Bean model is more than 100,000 A/cm2 at 20 K and in zero field.6 pages, 5 figuresSuperconductivitytext
