👉 Frottages, also known as frictional damage, is a phenomenon in which materials that are rubbed against each other can become damaged.

For example: - A rubber glove rubs against another pair of gloves, causing them to rub against each other more vigorously than before. - The same happens with a metal plate rubbed against a plastic plate. It becomes harder and less
