Kinetics of impurity segregation at grain boundaries in polycrystals. II. Concentrated solution

The isothermal impurity segregation from a finite-size grain into an intergrain boundary region or at an external free surface is investigated when the impurity concentration in the boundary region is not small. Simple algebraic equations are obtained that describe the impurity concentration for the case of several competing and interacting impurities. The process of segregation of two impurities is discussed in detail, and it is shown that the concentration of one of them can have a maximum as a function of time.
