← HistoryWhich consequence arises when expansive salts infiltrate Mughal pietra dura?
A)Adhesion loss of inlay fragments✓
B)Color gradients become more intense
C)Material shifts toward higher albedo
D)Symmetry of geometric patterns improves
💡 Explanation
Adhesion fails because the salt weathering undergoes crystallization expansion, thereby generating tensile stresses at interfaces that exceed bonding; therefore, inlay loses adhesion rather than color change during salt infiltration conditions.
