← HistoryWithin Mughal inlayed structures, which consequence accelerates deterioration following seasonal temperature cycles?
A)Differential thermal expansion creates stress✓
B)Oxidation of metal accents predominates
C)Crystal lattice resonance amplifies stresses
D)Electrostatic discharge causes dust buildup
💡 Explanation
Differential thermal expansion induces stresses at boundaries between materials because the coefficient of thermal is different between the inlay and the host stone; therefore cracking grows along joins, rather than uniform material failure or oxidation.
