With the introduction of High K Metal gates, a new degradation mechanism appeared.

Exposure to elevated temperatures is accelerates some degradation mechanisms.

The degradation mechanisms can be hydrolysis, oxidation, and/or alkylation-dealkylation, which are dependent on the presence of light, temperature, alkali, or enzymatic activity.

The degradation mechanism is for dust to get into the hearings.

Like other nitrate esters, the primary degradation mechanism is the loss of nitrogen dioxide; this reaction is autocatalytic.

It is suggested that a "true" corrosion loop should be a grouping were the degradation mechanism is "likely" to be the same i.e.

The gas mixture depends on the specific product and its degradation mechanisms.

The initial focus of physics of failure techniques tended to be limited to degradation mechanisms relevant to integrated circuits.

Little information is available about the degradation mechanisms.

Overloading the degradation mechanism causes the harmful gamma globulins to have a much shorter halflife in sera.
