The superconducting properties of twelve eutectic alloys have been studied. The seven alloys which were eutectics between terminal solid solutions were found to behave as type I superconductors irrespective of the solidification rate. Five other eutectic systems, all of which contained at least one intermetallic compound, were found to behave as type II superconductors. For the type II alloys a linear variation between the current-carrying capacity and the interphase boundary area per unit volume was observed. Of the type II alloys, eutectics containing one superconducting and one nonsuperconducting phase were found to be more structure sensitive than those having both phases superconducting.
