Which outcome occurs when applying stress near polymorphic crystal grain boundaries?

💡 Explanation

Applying stress promotes galvanic action because differential grain boundary energy increases the electromotive force through vacancy aggregation, weakening the metal; therefore, corrosion increases, rather than the metallic strength increasing at grain interfaces.
