Grain growth in superplastically deformed ZnS/diamond composites was much greater than in undeformed specimens exposed to the same time and temperature. The extent of grain growth depended on the volume fraction of diamond particles. Grain growth was suppressed by the addition of 10 wt% diamond particles in superplastically deformed specimens. In static annealing, however, only 1 wt% diamond particles were enough to supress grain growth, which is a factor of 10 smaller than estimated by the Zener condition.
