Granite 330 $a Air pollution damages materials, but it has changed dramatically in the past century, with a reduction in the concentration of corrosive primary pollutants in urban atmospheres. At the same time, architectural styles and types of materials have changed, as we have moved to more organically rich, photochemically active atmospheres. Contemporary air pollutants have the potential to degrade organic coatings and polymers, which are of great importance to modern structures, while increasing amounts of fine diesel soot spoil the simple lines and smooth areas characteristic of many modern buildings 410 0$aAir pollution reviews ;$vv. 2. 606 $aAir$xPollution$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aWeathering of buildings 606 $aBuilding materials$xDeterioration 615 0$aAir$xPollution$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aWeathering of buildings. 615 0$aBuilding materials$xDeterioration. 676 $a690 701 $aBrimblecombe$b Peter$f1949-$0150284 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809897103321 996 $aThe effects of air pollution on the built environment$94069970 997 $aUNINA
