Glass-ceramic processing of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconductors was improved through the addition of the intermediate glass formers gallium and indium. The gallium and gallium/indium additions produced Bi<sub>2</sub>Sr<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>1</sub>O<sub>6</sub> and Bi<sub>2</sub>Sr<sub>2</sub>CaCu<sub>2</sub>O<sub>8</sub>. The ϑx – T<sub>g</sub> difference for the gallium and gallium/indium glasses was increased to 73 and 89 K, respectively, with optimum molar ratios for Bi<sub>2</sub>Sr<sub>2</sub>Ca<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>3</sub>O<sub>10</sub> (stoichiometric batch) : gallium = 1.0 : 1.0 and for Bi<sub>2</sub>Sr<sub>2</sub>Ca<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>3</sub>O<sub>10</sub> (stoichiometric batch) : gallium : indium = 1.0 : 0.9 : 0.1, respectively.
