Materials Affected
The list of materials affected by acid deposition is very long as most materials are liable to some degree of damage. Those most vulnerable are: limestone; marble; carbon-steel; zinc; nickel; paint and some plastics. Stone decay can take several forms, including the removal of detail from carved stone, and the build-up of black gypsum crusts in sheltered areas. Metal corrosion is caused primarily by oxygen and moisture, although SO2 does accelerate the process. Most structures and buildings are affected by acid deposition to some degree because few materials are safe from these effects. In addition to atmospheric attack structures that are submerged in acidified waters such as foundations and pipes can also be corroded.
