As products reflecting the progress of human civilization, the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses, having the characteristics of large quantity, heavy weight, large size and high artistic value, have become a representative symbol of the culture of the Qin Dynasty and also a spiritual logo of Chinese civilization. In order to effectively and scientifically conserve and restore terracotta warriors, we selected six kinds of adhesives suitable for restoration of terracotta warriors based on comparative aging tests for common adhesives and comparative analysis of the physical and chemical properties between the adhesives and the pottery bodies of terracotta warriors. These adhesives were applied to the restoration of newly unearthed terracotta warriors; their performance appeared to be good. This research provides a reference for the further studies of restoration and conservation of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, as well as of other pottery cultural relics excavated archaeologically.
