Stone corrosion by acid rain or biofilm formation is a global problem. In their Communication on page 14926 ff., S. G. Mitchell, C. Streb, and co-workers show how polyoxometalate ionic liquids (POM-ILs) can be used as brush-on anticorrosion coatings on natural stones. The POM-ILs are designed to withstand corrosive conditions and feature antimicrobial components, which prevent the formation of bacterial colonies on the surface of porous and non-porous limestones.
