The segregation of solute or imparity elements to grain boundaries can occur by three well-defined processes. The first is Gibbsian segregation in which an element of minimal matrix solubility confines itself to a monolayer at the grain boundary. Classical examples include Bi in Cu and S or P in Fe. The second process involves the depletion of excess matrix solute by volume diffusion to the boundary. In the boundary, the solute atoms diffuse rapidly to precipitates, causing them to grow by the ‘collector-plate mechanism.’ Such grain boundary diffusion is thought to initiate “Diffusion-Induced Grain Boundary Migration,” (DIGM). This process has been proposed as the origin of eutectoid transformations or discontinuous grain boundary reactions. The third segregation process is non-equilibrium segregation which result in a solute build-up around the boundary because of solute-vacancy interactions.All of these segregation phenomena usually occur on a sub-micron scale and are often affected by the nature of the grain boundary (misorientation, defect structure, boundary plane).

Abstract The high strength of Tenform XF450, a hot-rolled high-strength low-alloy steel, allows the user to increase the strength of a finished component or to reduce the thickness. The steel is used in the construction and the automotive industries. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, tensile properties. and bend strength. It also includes information on forming. Filing Code: CS-148. Producer or source: Hille & Mueller, USA Inc. See also Alloy Digest CS-173, November 2012.
