Which consequence results when thermal expansion mismatch affects *pietra dura*?

A)Component liquefaction at high temperatures
B)Accelerated corrosion of metal supports
C)Interfacial delamination and pattern disruption
D)Uniform color fading due to oxidation

💡 Explanation

Interfacial delamination occurs because thermal expansion differences induce shear stress, leading to cracking at the boundary within the stone materials, impacting the pietra dura inlay artistry seriously. Therefore, adhesive failure happens rather than oxidation and uniform color fading.
