Review Paper: The revolution of superconducting materials for industrial utilization

The property of materials that is characterized by zero electric resistivity and ideally zero permeability has become a phenomenological revolutionary concern among scientist and engineers. However, with recent advances in sample growth superconductors, researchers are able to study the concept of high temperature superconductivity. This has now achieved impressive accomplishments in the field of power utilities, electronics, military applications, medicine and transportation. This paper reviews the concept of superconductivity, and the promise it offers in the realization of efficient system development for various industrial applications and sustainable national development. It shows how employing the technology in manipulating the superconductive materials becomes feasible for industrial application. As the research in the superconducting materials continues, the applications of superconductors would become extensive and unlimited.
