Grain boundary diffusion of Co and Ag was investigated in coarse-grained and ultrafine-grained (UFG) alpha-Ti. Ultrafine grained Ti was produced by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and diffusion measurements were performed in a temperature interval where no significant grain growth occurred. Grain boundary diffusion of Co was found to be 1-2 orders of magnitude slower in UFG Ti, despite the attendant activation enthalpy being similar to that in coarse-grained alpha-Ti. By contrast, grain boundary diffusion of Ag occurred at a significantly higher rate in the ECAP-modified UFG Ti. This behaviour is associated with the specific diffusion mechanisms of Ag and Co: while Ag diffuses preferentially via substitutional sites, diffusion of Co is dominated by interstitial jumps. The existence of so-called non-equilibrium interfaces in UFG Ti, providing an increased density of traps for the interstitially diffusing Co and simultaneously enhancing substitutionally diffusion of Ag, is confirmed by the diffusion measurements.
