Some of the grain boundaries in this movie are wet by a melt, which is OCP saturated acetone. Similar grain growth to that of Movie 13 can be seen. Is the wetting angle changing during migration of boundaries? "Marker" particles that drift across the field of view are probably in melt film between sample and glass.
This is one of 15 time-lapse movies linked to this page (http://www.albany.edu/geosciences/wdm/wdmoviep.html), which show the experimental deformation or post-deformation behaviour of octachloropropane (C3Cl8).
Most of the experiments in this group were performed during December 1995, when JHR was visiting Albany. Feel free to download these movies for teaching.

@MrAndreaspower Octachloropropane (OCP) is a rock analogue modelling material (see link in file description for more information). These models model rock processes, but processes in steel in can be similar to some extend.

is that nonmetallicinclusions in steel?
