← HistoryWithin Byzantine icon production, which outcome results when tempera binder decomposition accelerates?
A)Accelerated pigment flaking occurs✓
B)Gilding oxidization significantly slows
C)Lapis lazuli color deepens
D)Structural panel warping diminishes

Increased pigment flaking results from binder decomposition; where hydrolysis breaks down the protein network, affecting adhesion. This prompts pigment detachment, rather than alternative outcomes like slowed gilding because those processes involve separate mechanisms.
