The influence of the double heat treatment (T = 300 and 930°С) on the critical parameters of highly textured YBa2Cu3O6.96 and YBa2Cu3O6.8 ceramics has been investigated. It has been shown that, upon low-temperature annealing in humid air, planar stacking faults are formed in these ceramics. These defects are partly retained after reduction annealing (at T = 930°С) and are efficient pinning centers in magnetic fields applied parallel and perpendicular to the c axis. Due to the absorption of water, the oxygen content is increased in the ceramics, which is accompanied by an increase in the critical temperature of superconducting transition up to 94 K for YBa2Cu3O6.96 and up to 90 K for YBa2Cu3O6.8. Optimal conditions of the double annealing have been established, after which the critical-current density increased to jc ≥ 104 А/сm2 in an external magnetic field of up to 6 T. The low-temperature treatment in the neutral atmosphere saturated by water vapors deteriorates the current-carrying capacity of the highly textured ceramics, which is connected with the disappearance of texture due to the copper reduction and the precipitation of impurity phases.
