The historical development of the two approaches to the interaction between solute atoms and a migrating interface, based on dissipation of Gibbs energy and on solute drag, are reviewed and compared. In the way the solute drag was formulated long ago for recrystallization and grain growth, it does not apply to phase transformations. With a new solute drag equation, which was recently proposed, it turns out that the two approaches are completely equivalent for phase transformations as well as grain boundary migration.

Solute drag theory is critically revisited and an alternative approach is presented to account for the effect of solute elements on grain boundary migration during annealing. A fundamental new concept is introduced in the model that, in the linear range of irreversible thermodynamics, solute atoms segregated in a grain boundary will not lag behind when the boundary migrates. While lagging behind is the very essential assumption for the solute drag theory. Instead of blaming the lagging behind, the mobility drop due to solute addition is attributed to the decrease in boundary energy as a result of boundary segregation. According to this model, grain boundary mobility is dependent on solute concentration rather than migration rate. The predictions of the model are compared with experimental results, with a good agreement.

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).

The Ni4Mo alloy has a short-range ordered fee structure (α) above 868°C, but transforms below this temperature to an ordered bet structure (β) by rearrangement of atoms on the fee lattice. The disordered α, retained by rapid cooling, can be ordered by appropriate aging below 868°C. Initially, very fine β domains in six different but crystallographically related variants form and grow in size on further aging. However, in the temperature range 600-775°C, a coarsening reaction begins at the former α grain boundaries and the alloy also coarsens by this mechanism. The purpose of this paper is to report on TEM observations showing the characteristics of this grain boundary reaction.

In this paper the migration of a grain triple junction in apure ice sample with bubbles at -5°C was studied for almost 3hs. This allowed tracking the progress of the Grain Boundary (BG) and its interaction with the bubbles. The evolution of the grain triple junction was recorded from successive photographs obtained witha LEICA® optical microscope. Simultaneously, numerical simulations were carried out using Monte Carlo to obtain some physical parameters characteristic of the BG migration on ice.
