ABRADED Meaning and Definition

  1. The term "abraded" is an adjective that refers to the condition of an object or surface that has been worn down or damaged by abrasion. Abrasion itself refers to the process of rubbing, scraping, or wearing away, usually resulting from friction between two surfaces.

    When an object or surface is abraded, it means that its outer layer has been eroded or thinned due to repetitive contact with another material. This contact can be caused by various actions such as rubbing, grinding, or scraping. As a result, the abraded object may show signs of roughness, dullness, or even small grooves, scratches, or marks.

    The term "abraded" is often used in fields such as engineering, manufacturing, and geology, where it pertains to the examination and analysis of materials subjected to wear and tear. It can also be used to describe the physical appearance of certain injuries, such as abraded skin or abraded tissue.

    The extent of abrasion and the resulting level of damage or wearing down can vary depending on factors such as the materials involved, the pressure applied, and the duration of contact. Abrasion can occur naturally over time or be intentionally induced as a method for surface preparation, texturing, or polishing. Consequently, the term "abraded" denotes the effect of this mechanical action on the appearance, texture, or integrity of the object or surface in question.
