摘要
Ab st ra ct Nanocrystalline materials exhibit unique properties due to their extremely high grain boundary(GB) density.However,this high-density characteristic induces grain coarsening at elevated temperatures,thereby limiting the widespread application of nanocrystalline materials.Recent experimental observations revealed that GB segregation and second-phase pinning effectively hinder GB migration,thereby improving the stability of nanocry stalline materials.In this study,a mouified phase-field model that integrates mismatch strain,solute segregation and precipitation was developed to evaluate the influence of lattice misfit on the thermal stability of nanocrystalline alloys.The simulation results indicated that introducing a suitable mismatch strain can effectively enhance the microstructural stability of nanocrystalline alloys.By synergizing precipitation with an appropriate lattice misfit,the formation of second-phase particles in the bulk grains can be suppressed,thereby facilitating solute segregation/precipitation at the GBs.This concentrated solute segregation and precipitation at the GBs effectively hinders grain migration,thereby preventing grain coarsening.These findings provide a new perspective on the design and regulation of nanocrystalline alloys with enhanced thermal stability.
