Metal is a class of materials with metallic bonding, characterized by the sharing of electrons between atoms in a lattice structure. They are widely used in various industries due to their properties such as high strength, ductility and conductivity. Metals can be categorized into two groups:- ferrous and non-ferrous with ferrous metals containing iron as the main component and non-ferrous metals not containing iron. Metals have a wide range of applications from construction materials to electronic components, medical devices, and transportation industries. Metals are highly versatile and can be formed and shaped using various manufacturing techniques. However, metals are also subject to environmental and chemical degradation processes, such as corrosion and oxidation, and are often coated to protect them from these processes.
