The paper gives a critical analysis of the equation that predicts and estimates the progress of degradation for various building materials, recently proposed by Matsufuji et.al. After the analysis, the paper suggests an improved mathematical model, particularly oriented to modelling of sulfate corrosion. The experiments on two Portland cement samples and two Portland cement samples with 30% of coal ash were performed. The samples were immersed into the 10% (NH4)2SO4 solution...
