“…In urban atmospheres, patinas directly exposed to rain are subjected to significant dissolution, which leads to the corrosion of underlying bronze [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. Many studies have been conducted with the aim of understanding better the mechanism of bronze atmospheric corrosion and the influence of various factors such as alloy composition [ 4 , 5 , 6 ], presence of pollutants [ 2 , 9 , 10 ], and weathering conditions [ 7 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. These factors influence not only the corrosion rate value but also the composition and structure of the patina layer.…”
