They will be oxidized and become dark after encountering oxygen. That's why the tea gets darker the longer you leave it. As the tannins continue to oxidize, the molecules react with each other to make themselves bigger and bigger, resulting in a compound called tannic anhydride, which is insoluble in water and brown in color, and then slowly precipitated from tea and adhered to the teacup, which will form a layer of brown-red that we commonly see Tea rusted.

Teacup and tea set with tea rust. If the tea is not cleaned and kept exposed to the air, this is another component of tea polyphenols in tea, which will react with the substances in tea rust to form a thicker tea scale. It can be seen that the main components of the tea scale are tea polyphenols and carbon and oxygen elements from polyphenol polymers. In addition, there are calcium elements of water. At the same time, a small amount of metal ions will participate in the formation of tea scales.
