Effect of Grain Orientation on the Abnormal Grain Growth with Magetoplumbite Crystal Structure

Abstract

The nucleation and growth behavior of magentoplombite has been observed during the abnormal grain growth in the presence of liquid phase. Abnormal grain growth was explained in terms of grain orientation due to liquid phase. It has been observed that the nuclei formation for abnormal grain growth was driven by the capillary force due to the liquid phase. Because magnetoplumbite crystal structure has an anisotropic crystal nature, abnormal grain growth with faceted grain shape was observed depending on its chemical composition. The formation of nuclei and particle orientation was important for the occurrence of abnormal grain growth.
