Secondary pollutants are formed by the interaction of primary pollutants and atmospheric components.
Reactions take place in the presence of sunlight and produce secondary pollutants.
Examples: Smog, Fog, PAN (Peroxy acetyl nitrate) along with ozone forms photo chemical smog.
Secondary pollutants are more harmful than primary pollutants.
