Abstract
This paper reports a study of grain boundary segregation of sulfur in iron. The results show that if the amount of sulfur in the alloy is greater than the solubility limit, the amount of segregation increases with increasing ageing temperature. When the temperature is raised above the point where all sulfur goes into solution, the amount of segregation decreases with increasing temperature. These results can be explained quite straightforwardly by McLean's model for segregation. However, at high bulk concentrations. Auger analysis may be difficult because the signal obtained from a grain boundary facet will arise from a combination of segregated sulfur and precipitated sulfur.
