Equilibrium grain boundary segregation is assessed in terms of its measurement, theory and
industrial significance. Aspects of the phenomenon of this segregation, namely the …

Grain boundaries are important structural components of polycrystalline materials used in
the vast majority of technical applications. Because grain boundaries form a continuous …

Equilibrium grain boundary segregation levels have been measured on binary and ternary
iron alloys with tin and sulphur over a wide temperature range, by means of two …

It has been widely accepted that grain boundary segregation of solutes or impurities is
responsible for the grain boundary embrlttlement such as temper-or creep-embrittlements …

This paper considers the sources of variability in segregation to random high angle grain
boundaries. The variation in segregation to most grain boundaries is within±30% of an …

The theory of equilibrium solute segregation at solid/solid interfaces can be approached
usefully from classical surface/gas adsorption isotherms of varying complexity and …

Physical and chemical properties of solid materials are strongly. influenced by the chemical
composition of internal interfaces, One of the crucial parameters affecting interfacial …

Equilibrium surface segregation concentrations have been measured for iron-tin alloys over
the temperature range 500° to 850° C using Auger electron spectroscopy. The results are …

Grain boundaries in crystalline solids exert a pronounced influence on almost all the
properties of polycrystalline bodies, as well as affecting the kinetics of most solid-state …

A simple thermodynamic calculation to assess the effect of grain size on grain boundary
segregation has been performed. It is shown that in binary alloys when the bulk solute …
