Grain boundaries restrict slip transmission to neighboring grains. A medium-grain material has a higher tensile strength and is harder than a coarse-grained material, and offers a practical balance between hardness and toughness. ]]></termNote><termCreatedDate>2026-03-30 20:32:40</termCreatedDate><relation><relationType>UF</relationType><termId>31343631</termId><termName>material, medium-grain</termName><termType>ND</termType></relation><relation><relationType>BT</relationType><termId>31319760</termId><termName>materials by granularity</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation><relation><relationType>NT</relationType><termId>31373895</termId><termName>flake</termName><termType>PT</termType></relation></term>  </Zthes>
