The local variation of grain boundary atomic structure and chemistry caused by segregation
of impurities influences the macroscopic properties of polycrystalline materials. Here, the …

Segregation of substitutional, oversized solute atoms to both equilibrium and metastable
structures of twenty-one〈 110〉 symmetric tilt grain boundaries (GBs) in an fcc binary alloy is …

This feature article summarizes the present art and science of grain boundary segregation
from the viewpoint of the authors activities in this field. In the part on equilibrium segregation …

The Gibbsian interfacial excess of silicon (ΓSi) was determined, on an atomic scale, for 14
grain boundaries (GBs) in a single-phase Fe–3at.% Si alloy, using a unique combined atom …

This chapter describes fundamentals of equilibrium grain boundary segregation. Two basic
approaches to description of this phenomenon are shown–Gibbs adsorption isotherm and …

This chapter deals with considering various effects on equilibrium grain boundary
segregation. The effects of intensive thermodynamic variables–temperature, concentration …

Body-centered cubic (bcc) Fe is the basis for all ferritic steels used in the automotive and
construction sectors. These metals have a polycrystalline nature, ie they contain grain …
