Q

In a two-phase material consisting of a matrix and secondary particles that exist in thermodynamic equilibrium the larger particles tend to integrate smaller once (large particles
“eat” little once). Why is this tendency?

A

R=Because the surface energy increases with D 2 and internal energy decreases with D 3
