Abstract

Ancient Egyptian faience is a significant object which has
enormous technical and historical information about Egyptian 
civilization. The recently discovered faience is exposed to many 
deterioration factors, which have a serious impact on its 
components and its physical and mechanical properties leading to
poor structure, broken parts, and separated glazing layer.
The current study aims to stop the continuous undesired effect of 
the deterioration factors and consolidate the recent discovered 
fiancé objects by using four different nanocomposite (Nanosilica 
SiO2 with Waker OH100 and TEOS as well as nano calcium 
hydroxide Ca(OH)2 ). The chosen consolidants (Polymernanomaterials) have been applied on simulated Egyptian blue 
faience object samples depending on an analytical study of
recently discovered ancient faience objects at Tepla hill, Egypt
using XRD, and SEM_EDX.
Porosity, water absorption, density, compressive strength, 
colorimetric measurements, water contact angle and Scanning 
electron microscope (SEM) were used to evaluate the efficiency 
of the selected consolidants, the result revealed that composite of 
nanosilica with Waker OH100 and TEOS were provide notable 
protection for the deteriorated faience.
