Grain Boundary Wetting by the Second Solid Phase: 20 Years of History
Grain boundaries (GBs) can be wetted by a second phase. This phase can be not only liquid (or melted), but it can also be solid. GB wetting can be incomplete (partial) or complete.

High temperature wettability and oxidation behavior of TiN, Ti–Al–N and Ti–Si–N PVD film
In aluminium cutting and die casting, tools are exposed to Built UP Edge (BUE) and Built Up Layer (BUL) and erosion due to the frequent contact of the tool surface to the aluminum alloy, to oxidation due to high temperatures.
