Superconductor production at the plant was created as part of Russia's participation in the project to build the world's first International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) of a new generation, which is being built in France. Subsequently, superconductors from CMP JSC found application in other science-intensive projects - the superconducting collider of protons and heavy ions (NICA) and the accelerator complex of the Center for Ion and Antiproton Research (FAIR).
At present, the CMP JSC site has mastered the production of superconducting niobium-titanium and niobium-tin conductors - multi-core composites with a diameter of 0.1 to 6 mm, a length of several hundred meters to several tens of kilometres, containing a strictly defined proportion of continuous cores of superconducting material in a metal matrix. One wire can contain up to 19 thousand fibers, each is 10 times thinner than a human hair.
