All connective tissue apart from blood and lymph consists of three main components: fibers (elastic and collagenous fibers), ground substance and cells. (Not all authorities include blood or lymph as connective tissue.) Blood and lymph lack the fiber component.All are immersed in the body water.onnective tissue (CT) is one of the four types of biological tissue that support, connect, or separate different types of tissues and organs in the body.
Degradation of the metal substrate by oxidation. That is the formation of an oxide layer on the metal surface. This process requires that the metal surface be exposed to oxygen, and is favoured in the presence of water.
the reaction in which a metal and oxygen combine to form an oxide. In a more general sense, oxidation of a metal is a reaction in which atoms lose electrons to yield various compounds, such as chlorides and sulfides.With very few exceptions, metals occur naturally in oxidized form and are called ores. Consequently, metallurgical processes involve the reduction of various compounds.he course of the oxidation of a metal is determined by a thermodynamic factorâthe change in free energy during the reactionâand by a kinetic factorâthe reaction rateâthat is largely dependent on both the nature of the oxidation products and the interaction between the products and the metal.
