Which conduction consequence results when grain boundaries impede phonon propagation?

💡 Explanation

Reduced thermal conductivity results from Umklapp scattering increasing because localized defects disrupts long-range order, diminishing the phonon mean free path; therefore, thermal conductivity is reduced, rather than enhanced conductivity, which would require coherent electron motion.
