I've been confused for a long time and can't figure this out: In annealing process, after recrystallisation, new "strain-free" grains replaced the strained grains, but it seems there are much more grain boundaries than before the material was annealed? Is this true? Having more grain...

Does a single crystal specimen have a smaller Young's Modulus than a polycrystalline specimen? I think a single crystal would have a lower elastic mudolus since it has less grain boundaries and probably less dislocations than a polycrystalline specimen. I'd appreciate any ideas thanks
