Emission Mössbauer spectroscopy of grain boundaries in ultrafine-grained W and Mo produced by severe plastic deformation

详细

Grain boundaries in ultrafine-grained W and Mo produced by severe plastic deformation (SPD) by high-pressure torsion method have been studied by emission Mössbauer spectroscopy on ⁵⁷Co (⁵⁷Fe) nuclei. The evolution of the state of the grain boundaries has been studied upon heating. It has been shown that, after SPD, the grain boundaries are in a nonequilibrium state, which is characterized by an excess free volume. Upon annealing, the state of the grain boundaries changes as it approaches the state typical of coarse-grained materials.
