As a consequence, such metallic components are considered better employed on the anode side where rich hydrogen atmosphere is present [15, 16, 17, 18].
The crusts and patinas also include grains of quartz, dolomite, and other minor components, such as metallic and aluminum silicon particles, chlorides, etc.
The increase of esthetics' demand has led to the development of metal-free restorations without metallic components [ 1].
This implies that the non-metallic materials such as bone and cement underlying the metallic components have a small effect on the predicted lubrication performance for the particular metal-on-metal hip-resurfacing prosthesis considered in this study.
Metallic biomaterials have been used enormously in biomedical devices and components, such as hard tissue replacements, cardiac and cardiovascular stents, etc., due to their desirable mechanical properties and biocompatibility.
Metallic components present hazards in the event of contact with electrical power lines.
Such relatively low-conductivity composite materials need to be engineered with lightning strike protection to achieve lightning tolerance comparable to metallic components.
Its detrimental effect significantly reduces the life of metallic components.
Charge transport inside the battery occurs through different media; charge carriers in the metallic components are electrons, whereas current in the electrolyte consists of ion transport.
Numerous metallic components (Ti, W, Ag, Cu, Au, etc).
