"prone to deformation" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
You can use it when you want to describe something that is easily deformed or moved from its original shape. For example, "The material was soft and prone to deformation, so the workers had to be very careful when handling it."
High laser power (high heating rate) makes the droplet prone to deformation while high concentration precursor solution being highly viscous increases the resistance against instability and deformation.
However, since most polymers are relatively compliant and exhibit time-dependent behavior, such membranes are prone to deformation under mechanical loading that can occur during different stages of manufacturing as well as during separation.
It is resistant to magnetic fields; the process of forming silicon parts is easier and less expensive that the manufacturing of traditional watch parts; silicon components are lighter than their metal alternatives, less prone to deformation and more shock resistant; and perhaps most important, silicon's low friction coefficient removes the need for oil, which is the Achilles heel of watchmaking.
"Chimp and great ape skulls in general are equally soft after birth and equally prone to deformation," says Christoph Zollikofer at the University of Zurich in Switzerland.
One factor that contributes to the problem may be that with a reduction in filler, the asphalt mortar stiffness is reduced making the mixture prone to deformation.
Hand-mixing increased the amount of pores, compromising the structural integrity of the bone cement and being more prone to deformation (i.e., decreased hardness).
Instead, rapid fingerling growth made fish prone to deformations (rG = 0.18).
The roadbed culvert transition section (RCTS) was paid special attention, as it was prone to uneven deformation.
The secondary tunnel lining is prone to excessive deformation, cracking, or even collapse, seriously affecting the safety of tunnel construction and operation.
Because tooth enamel contains significantly less organic material than bone (∼1% vs. ∼20%, respectively), it reacts differently to heat and is less prone to plastic deformation [38].
Extensive studies have revealed that after being taken out of their native membrane environment membrane proteins are not stable and are extremely prone to structural deformation and loss of activity [2].
