The activation volume for normal grain growth is 1.35 cm3/mol, i.e., 0.15 of the atomic volume. It was shown that high pressure strongly increases the fraction of low angle boundaries in the polycrystal. We investigated also the effect of high hydrostatic pressure on Al [100] tilt triple junction motion. The research was modified by the fact that grain growth is connected with triple junction motion. In the present case this is related to extension of low angle [100] tilt GBs. The activation volume for triple junction motion is 4.5 cm3/mol.
Keywords: 2-D grain growth, low-angle boundaries distribution, triple junction, high hydrostatic pressure.
