1. A downhole component comprising:
a support body that comprises a surface that defines at least a portion of a fluid passage;
a composite matrix for scale mitigation supported by and directly contacting the support body, wherein the composite matrix comprises:
a lattice material that defines a plurality of cavities, wherein the plurality of cavities defines a hexagonal honeycomb structure; and
a magnetic material disposed in the plurality of cavities of the lattice material; and
a cover layer disposed on and directly contacting the composite matrix, the cover layer positioned to seal the magnetic material from the fluid passage.
