A variety of materials were examined in order to find most suitable organic coatings for the protection of architectural glazed tiles. Properties such as light stability of the protective materials, hydrophobicity, freeze-thaw resistance and chemical stability were tested on new yellow-glazed tiles. The optimum polymers were chosen and properties such as hydrophobicity, freeze-thaw resistance, the bending and compressive strength as well as permeability for the weak architectural glazed tiles were tested. The results showed that the light-stability of the protective materials Primal SF and B72 were poor, the hydrophobicity and freeze-thaw resistance of Primal SF was poor, and the chemical stability in silicone, the hydruphobicity and alkali resistance in polyurethane and silicone-acrylic emulsion were poor, whereas fluorine-containing materials were better. Fluorine resin and materials composed mainly of the fluorine resin were better for soft architectural glazed tiles because they could penetrate into the tiles and exert a hydrophobic effect. In conclusion, fluorine resin and materials composed mainly of the fluorine resin have excellent performance and should be widely employed as protective materials in the conservation of architectural glazed tiles.
