Abstract
The effects of five simulated atmospheres containing HF, SO<sub>2</sub> and HF and SO<sub>2</sub> at different humidities were investigated. Conditions necessary to produce secondary pollutant products were introduced. Micaceous fine grained sandstone samples were exposed to various pollutants to assess damage. Synergetic effects of combined pollutants as well as humidity levels were cited as most influential factors. -- AATA
