The physical conditions under which suprathermal grains may lose energy and processes involving grain destruction are investigated. It is found that a dust grain, once attaining a velocity of approximately 100,000 cm/s, may attain suprathermal energy and, subsequently, relativistic energy. Here, the particles are almost indestructible in the accelerating phase.
