Lecture

Grain Growth & Microstructure

Description

This lecture delves into the process of sintering, focusing on grain growth and microstructure evolution. It covers topics such as abnormal grain growth, the effects of dopants, pinning effects, and pore evolution in ceramics. The instructor explains the mechanisms behind grain boundary movement, the impact of solute drag, and the interplay between densification and coarsening during sintering.
