Abstract
Under the dynamic grain boundary (GB) segregation state, an important thermokinetic transition stage between solute segregation and precipitation was considered. The thermokinetic model for nano-scale grain growth was extended by incorporating mixed effects of GB energy, activation energy and Zener drag. The application of the model in Fe-Cr and Nano-Fe alloys showed that formation of precipitation could accelerate the increase of GB energy and decrease of activation energy and finally induce to the second grain growth and second stabilization.
