Abrasion resistance

Abrasion resistance describes how well a material can withstand wear and tear caused by friction or rubbing over time. It indicates durability and the ability to maintain its surface qualities when subjected to repetitive contact, scraping, or friction. For example, a shoe sole with high abrasion resistance will last longer without wearing thin, and paint with good abrasion resistance won't easily scratch or peel. This property is important in selecting materials for high-wear environments, ensuring longevity and performance by resisting surface degradation from regular use.
