Grain<br />

Boundaries<br />

Temperature dependence<br />

• The growth of new grains requires motion of grain<br />

boundaries. Boundary migration occurs by the<br />

transfer of atoms across the boundary which is a<br />

diffusion-like process.<br />

• Solutes have a strong effect on boundaries because<br />

the interaction leads to segregation (generally an<br />

excess of solute on the boundary). In effect, moving<br />

the boundary forces the solute to move with it.<br />

• A suitable measure of the “reaction rate” is the time<br />

for 50% recrystallization.<br />
