AbstractA grain boundary engineering approach was employed to improve the microstructure of a commercial Pb-base alloy for better performance in automobile battery application. Through a combination of cold working, recrystallization and subsequent thermomechanical-processing, it was possible to increase the fraction of the low ∑ coincidence site lattice boundaries up to 91% in addition to the substantial grain refinement. A preliminary electrochemical evaluation indicated a better corrosion resistance in the experimental material laden with the special boundaries. The high frequency of the coincidence site lattice boundaries in the specimens was interpreted in terms of the '∑3 regeneration' model proposed in previous works.

ABSTRACTIntergranular degradation processes, (e.g., corrosion, stress corrosion, cracking, creep cracking) are a frequent cause of premature and unpredictable service failure of engineering components. Recent advances in (1) understanding structure-property relationships for grain boundaries, and (2) characterization techniques for grain boundaries in polycrystalline materials, have provided the means for improved component lifetime prediction, and the opportunity to engineer intergranular-degradation resistant microstructures.In this work, we present our previously developed geometric models for grain boundary structure and grain size effects on intergranular degradation susceptibility. Specific examples are presented of the successful application of the ‘grain boundary engineering’ approach to the prediction and mitigation of intergranular corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, and creep cracking in Ni-based materials.
