[Display omitted] •Atomistic simulations were employed to investigate nanoscale sintering.•Particle neck growth was examined as a function of GB misorientation.•Pore shrinkage kinetics is highly dependent on the GBs present in the system. Sintering is a processing technique used to produce bulk mate...
