Esta obra trata da sucessão cultural registada na Estremadura portuguesa desde a emergência das sociedades complexas do Calcolítico até à chegada dos Romanos, correspondendo a um lapso de tempo entre os finais do IV milénio e os finais do século II a.C. Embora corresponda apenas a intervalo temporal de aproximadamente três mil anos, é o que, no registo material da nossa Pré-História e Proto-História, se afigura mais rico e diversificado de informação, com o desenvolvimento e fixação de regionalismos culturais, que na Estremadura cunharam identidades próprias, as quais persistiram nalguns casos até época recente, no quotidiano dos seus habitantes. A percepção geral desta evolução, bem como as suas determinantes, é o primeiro, e talvez mais importante objectivo desta obra, a par de outros a seguir enunciados: – a génese dos povoados fortificados calcolíticos, em resultado da crescente intensificação económica e da especialização das produções – a Revolução dos Produtos Secundários (RPS), que decorreu ao longo de boa parte do III milénio a.C. – a par do crescimento demográfico, que determinou, por seu turno, a competição inter-grupos, com a consequente necessidade de fortificação; – a monumentalização / fortificação de alguns dos sítios habitados como expressão da coesão social da respectiva comunidade, acompanhada da emergência de diferenciações inter e intra-comunitárias, indício de diferenciação social, em crescente afirmação, decorrente do processo de desenvolvimento económico complexo, característico do Calcolítico; – as arquitecturas defensivas do III milénio a.C., como expressão pública indissociável da monumentalização acima referida: exemplos mais importantes no território estremenho, distribuição geográfica, características principais, semelhanças e diferenças; neste âmbito, importa conhecer as diversas teorias explicativas para o seu surgimento, desde o modelo difusionista e orientalista vigente em Portugal (dos anos 40 aos anos 70), passando pelo modelo indigenista (anos 80), até às formas difusionistas mitigadas, de expressão regional, dos finais da década de 80 em diante, e principais argumentos invocados; – a desarticulação do modelo de sociedade calcolítica, caracterizada pela concentração da população em sítios fortificados ou pelo menos implantados predominantemente em locais altos e defensáveis; – os moldes em que se processou a acentuação das influências mediterrâneas no decurso do Calcolítico (em especial na metade meridional do território): a generalização do comércio transregional calcolítico e a intensificação e especialização das produções, no quadro da Revolução dos Produtos Secundários (RPS), exemplificada pela exploração de jazidas cupríferas, como veículo de difusão de novas técnicas (metalurgia), matérias-primas exógenas (marfim) e artefactos ideotécnicos de características até então desconhecidas (generalização do culto da divindade feminina e correspondentes expressões simbólicas, algumas de âmbito estritamente regional), acompanhada da difusão, de Sul para Norte, de novas arquitecturas funerárias (tholoi); – sobre o Campaniforme, fenómeno cultural com identidade própria da fase média e tardia do Calcolítico estremenho, serão discutidas as características e cronologia da sua emergência, na Estremadura (um dos pólos mais importantes, a nível europeu) no quadro da sociedade calcolítica pré-existente: tipo de povoamento e de necrópoles, bem como as relações estabelecidas com as comunidades de tradição cultural mais antiga; o faseamento interno do “fenómeno”, com base nas diferenças identificadas no registo material (em particular a tipologia das cerâmicas); e principais tipos artefactuais que o integram. O campaniforme deverá ser entendido como uma expressão material específica, associada a um novo tipo de povoamento, que resultou do decréscimo do interesse oferecido pelos sítios fortificados edificados no início do Calcolítico. Neste sentido, corresponde a período de transição para a Idade do Bronze: existem argumentos, com base no registo arqueológico (jóias de ouro, artefactos de prestígio) que ilustram o incremento do processo de diferenciação social, então verificado, ao contrário do que uma abordagem mais superficial, com base simplesmente no reordenamento demográfico, faria supor; – o registo arqueológico do Bronze Pleno configura a acentuação dos regionalismos, apesar de similitudes do sistema de povoamento face ao período imediatamente anterior, o que indicia realidades socioeconómicas comparáveis. Importa, assim, conhecer as principais características dos escassos povoados identificados, bem como a organização social a ele subjacente, a partir dos testemunhos arqueológicos conhecidos, incluindo os de carácter funerário; – segue-se o Bronze Final, período dominado pela plena afirmação do comércio transregional atlântico-mediterrâneo, favorecido pela própria realidade geográfica do território português. Devem valorizar-se os testemunhos materiais desse período e as respectivas balizas cronológicas: Assim, deverão os leitores ficar familiarizados com as produções de carácter atlântico, como as armas, objectos utilitários e respectivas tipologias e com as de cunho mediterrâneo (com destaque para objectos de indumentária e de carácter cultual, embora estes últimos quase se desconheçam na área estremenha), cujo comércio e difusão foi suportado pela existência de solidariedades económicas transregionais, baseadas em prováveis pactos formalmente estabelecidos entre comunidades vizinhas. Os respectivos territórios, de norte a sul do País, apresentar-se-iam cada vez melhor delimitados; o mesmo deverá ter-se verificado na Estremadura. A caracterização da respectiva economia será, por isso, objecto da análise e discussão; embora de base agro-pastoril (com importância evidente na Estremadura dadas as características dos solos e a quase inexistência de minérios de cobre ou de estanho), a produção de peças metálicas de bronze assumiu importância crescente, como se conclui pelas ocorrências conhecidas. O reforço e a consolidação das elites então verificada, eram necessários para a boa gestão de grandes povoados muralhados que despontam no Bronze Final; na Estremadura, embora os testemunhos de tais centros demográficos não sejam particularmente evidentes, no fim da Idade do Bronze desponta um vigoroso povoamento de altura; seria a partir desses locais que as elites da época, de cunho guerreiro, administrariam territórios bem delimitados. Também a existência de outros testemunhos arqueológicos são concorrentes para a percepção da realidade social: as jóias auríferas, tornadas então relativamente frequentes, deixam transparecer influências ora atlânticas ora mediterrâneas, por vezes reunidas numa única peça (técnicas e tipologias decorativas), expressivas das correntes culturais que, então, se faziam sentir na Estremadura; também as armas, são testemunho da afirmação das elites guerreiras, encontrando-se representadas por exemplares cujas principais características devem ser conhecidas. As diversas práticas funerárias, apesar de escassamente representadas, revelam influências continentais (cremação e campos de urnas, já fora da área estremenha, mas dela próxima: caso dos campos de urnas de Tanchoal e de Meijão, Alpiarça) e mediterrâneas (inumações na tholos da Roça do Casal do Meio, Sesimbra), que traduzem um mosaico cultural complexo, reforçando a ideia de se tratar de região receptora de influxos culturais de diversas áreas geográficas em simultâneo: é, no essencial, a comprensão global desta realidade, a um tempo económica, social e cultural, coroando um longo processo de diferenciação social, por um lado e, por outro, de intensificação económica e interacção cultural, que lhe está subjacente, que deverá ter-se presente. Por último, segue-se o estudo e caracterização das principais estações e materiais da Idade do Ferro, de início (I Idade do Ferro) profundamente marcadas pela presença, directa ou indirecta, de colonizadores fenícios; depois, pelos comerciantes de origem púnica (II Idade do Ferro) e, enfim, pelos exércitos itálicos. Trata-se, em suma, de processo de características próprias, sempre determinado pelas influências mediterrâneas, largamente dominantes face às originárias do interior peninsular, as quais cunharam uma realidade cultural com características próprias, que persistiu no decurso da dominação romana.

The WTP produce many kinds of residue on your treatment stages, but the sludge is the more problematic from the final disposition point view. The actual rate of residue production deriving from technological evolution and the crescent population needs prevents the subtle equilibrium generation between consumption and recycling/reuse, creating problems of pollution resulting from inappropriate management of residues. Thus, is necessary achieve a new equilibrium between the grow from raw materials and energy and the residue generation. This equilibrium should be achieved by technical and economic feasibility of environmental supported models through recycling and reuse. The red ceramic industry stand out in residue absorption question as raw material due their clay mass heterogeneity, constituted by clay minerals and non-clay minerals with wide mineralogical variation, allowing residue inclusion which act like plastic or non-plastic materials, contributing to retain heavy metals contained in residues in the vitreous mass formed during the burning of the ceramic bodies. This work propose the study of the influence of incorporation of 25 wt.% sludge from wastewater treatment plant, according preliminary results, in the mass to produce ceramic bodies. The raw materials was characterized through chemical composition analyses by XRF, mineralogical analyses by XRD, thermal analyses by TG and DTA, Atterberg limits and thermodilatometry. Subsequently was composed the mass with 75 wt.% of clay and 25 wt.% of dried wastewater sludge from UFRN WWTP. Samples with 6,0 x 2,0 x 0,5 cm was produced with unidirectional compacting under pressure of 20MPa and burned in temperatures between 950 and 1,200ºC. After fired, the ceramic bodies have been submitted to physical and mechanical analyses through the measure of firing shrinkage, water absorption, density, apparent porosity and flexural strength; crystallographic analyses through XRD and microstructure analyses by SEM. The technological properties obtained was satisfactory to production of roof tiles with 25 wt.% at 1,200 ºC, but the production of others products at lower temperatures was not feasible

Nickel-based catalysts supported on alumina have been widely used in various reactions to obtain synthesis gas or hydrogen. Usually, higher conversion levels are obtained by these catalysts, however, the deactivation by coke formation and sintering of metal particles are still problems to be solved. Several approaches have been employed in order to minimize these problems, among which stands out in recent years the use of additives such as oxides of alkali metals and rare earths. Similarly, the use of methodologies for the synthesis faster, easier, applicable on an industrial scale and to allow control of the microstructural characteristics of these catalysts, can together provide the solution to this problem. In this work, oxides with spinel type structure AB2O4, where A represents divalent cation and B represents trivalent cations are an important class of ceramic materials investigated worldwide in different fields of applications. The nickel cobaltite (NiCo2O4) was oxides of spinel type which has attracted considerable interest due to its applicability in several areas, such as chemical sensors, flat panel displays, optical limiters, electrode materials, pigments, electrocatalysis, electronic ceramics, among others. The catalyst precursor NiCo2O4 was prepared by a new chemical synthesis route using gelatine as directing agent. The polymer resin obtained was calcined at 350°C. The samples were calcined at different temperatures (550, 750 and 950°C) and characterized by X ray diffraction, measurements of specific surface area, temperature programmed reduction and scanning electron microscopy. The materials heat treated at 550 and 750°C were tested in the partial oxidation of methane. The set of techniques revealed, for solid preparations, the presence of the phase of spinel-type structure with the NiCo2O4 NixCo1-xO solid solution. This solid solution was identified by Rietveld refinement at all temperatures of heat treatment. The catalyst precursors calcined at 550 and 750°C showed conversion levels around 25 and 75%, respectively. The reason H2/CO was around 2 to the precursor treated at 750°C, proposed reason for the reaction of partial oxidation of methane, one can conclude that this material can be shown to produce synthesis gas suitable for use in the synthesis Fischer-Tropsch process

Given the environmental concern over global warming that occurs mainly by emission of CO2 from the combustion of petroleum, coal and natural gas research focused on alternative and clean energy generation has been intensified. Among these, the highlight the solid oxide fuel cell intermediate temperature (IT-SOFC). For application as electrolyte of the devices doped based CeO2 with rare earth ions (TR+ 3) have been quite promising because they have good ionic conductivity and operate at relatively low temperatures (500-800 ° C). In this work, studied the Ce1-xEuxO2-δ (x = 0,1, 0,2 and 0,3), solid solutions synthesized by the polymeric precursor method to be used as solid electrolyte. It was also studied the processing steps of these powders (milling, compaction and two step sintering) in order to obtain dense sintered pellets with reduced grain size and homogeneous microstructure. For this, the powders were characterized by thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, particle size distribution and scanning electrons microscopy, since the sintered samples were characterized by dilatometry, scanning electrons microscopy, density and grain size measurements. By x-ray diffraction, it was verified the formation of the solid solution for all compositions. Crystallites in the nanometric scale were found for both sintering routes but the two step sintering presented significant reduction in the average grain size

Continuous Synthesis by Solution Combustion was employed in this work aiming to obtain tin dioxide nanostructured. Basically, a precursor solution is prepared and then be atomized and sprayed into the flame, where its combustion occurs, leading to the formation of particles. This is a recent technique that shows an enormous potential in oxides deposition, mainly by the low cost of equipment and precursors employed. The tin dioxide (SnO2) nanostructured has been widely used in various applications, especially as gas sensors and varistors. In the case of sensors based on semiconducting ceramics, where surface reactions are responsible for the detection of gases, the importance of surface area and particle size is even greater. The preference for a nanostructured material is based on its significant increase in surface area compared to conventional microcrystalline powders and small particle size, which may benefit certain properties such as high electrical conductivity, high thermal stability, mechanical and chemical. In this work, were employed as precursor solution tin chloride dehydrate diluted in anhydrous ethyl alcohol. Were utilized molar ratio chloride/solvent of 0,75 with the purpose of investigate its influence in the microstructure of produced powder. The solution precursor flux was 3 mL/min. Analysis with X-ray diffraction appointed that a solution precursor with molar ratio chloride/solvent of 0,75 leads to crystalline powder with single phase and all peaks are attributed to phase SnO2. Parameters as distance from the flame with atomizer distance from the capture system with the pilot, molar ratio and solution flux doesn t affect the presence of tin dioxide in the produced powder. In the characterization of the obtained powder techniques were used as thermogravimetric (TGA) and thermodiferential analysis (DTA), particle size by laser diffraction (GDL), crystallographic analysis by X-ray diffraction (XRD), morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), specific surface area (BET) and electrical conductivity analysis. The techniques used revealed that the SnO2 exhibits behavior of a semiconductor material, and a potentially promising material for application as varistor and sensor systems for gas

This dissertation is based on the ethnography of a strategic selection of three Tremembé ethnic situations, which are situated in the backlands of Acaraú and Itarema, municipalities located in Ceará State (Northeast Brazil). My main aims are the following. Firstly, I reconstitute the historical and social formation of three localities, called Lagoa dos Negros, Telhas, and Queimadas, related to a particular origin myth which refers to Almofala, an extinct colonial Aldeamento in the seashore, where the Tremembé indians and other native populations were converted and gathered under missionary administration. According to the origin myth, these three localities were set up after a strong drought which happened in 1888 (the so called three eights) when a group of Tremembé families moved to the countryside and established close to the Lagoa dos Negros and, later on, they were segmented into smaller groups which started to live in other areas and places not far from the former location. Notably, I develop an anthropological approach to understand the historical formation of these three localities. Secondly, I analyze some processes of territorialization, which were emerged from the 1980s and had important consequences to these indigenous families throughout the next two decades. This historical dimension is re-appropriated and ressignified in ethnic terms. A third point of my work is the analysis of the construction of territorialities and also the cultural and symbolic dimensions which are formulated by the Tremembé Indians who live in these localities. Therefore, I investigate some cultural traditions and rituals, such as the Torém dance, but I also examine their multiple semantics, which constitute a transversal direction throughout the history understood by the Tremembé of the different social situations I researched. To sum up, there is a process of cultural actualization, which is still going on and presents itself through the ludic sphere as well as their political and religions dimensions, which are usually associated to the ritual presentation of the Torém

In the State Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, the most significant deposits of minerals in the production of granite and pegmatite are Seridó region. Municipalities of Parelhas and Equador are the main responsible for the production of feldspar, quartz, kaolin and granite. The ceramic industries are always in search of competitiveness by investing in new products or improving existing techniques. The stoneware is a type of pottery that stands in the market because it presents technical and aesthetic characteristics superior to other existing products. Characteristics of the raw materials initially obtained with chemical analysis and mineralogical analysis are crucial in getting a product that satisfies the conditions in a manufacturing process and is, in principle, directly related to the firing cycle. This research aimed at developing new formulations for the mass production of ceramic stoneware. The raw materials initially characterized were feldspar, quartz, kaolin and granite. As part of the research was developed at the University of Aveiro, in Portugal, we used two clays used in the production of Portuguese ceramics. The raw material Brazilian and Portuguese and the final product, both in Portugal and Brazil, were analyzed for X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, granulometric analysis, dilatometric analysis, thermal analysis and analysis of scanning electron microscopy (MEV). The specimens prepared at the University of Aveiro (DECV) were sintered at 10000C and 12000C and the specimens prepared in UFRN were sintered at 10000C, 10500C, 11000C, 11500C, 12000C, 12500C and 13000C, but the best results and demonstrating the presence of the mineral mullite were at temperatures of 12000C, 12500C and 13000C. The results showed that the granite waste used may be considered raw material of excellent quality for use in the ceramic industry and coating floors and more accurately by the industry of stoneware. Physical and mechanical tests conducted on samples of the formulations F01 and F02 developed in UFRN showed a water absorption and mechanical strength suitable for the stoneware

La nanociencia y nanotecnología han revolucionado las investigaciones en ciencia de los materiales, permitiendo el desarrollo de nuevos productos con desempeño superior a los convencionales. Conceptos nanotecnológicos como la adición de partículas en tamaños nanométricos para incrementar las propiedades finales han sido demostrados en cerámicos, sin embargo esta alternativa prácticamente no ha sido investigada en sistemas porcelánicos, específicamente en porcelanas triaxiales con aplicaciones eléctricas. Este trabajo de investigación presenta el desarrollo de una formulación de porcelana triaxial silicosa, de grado eléctrico, con características mecánicas y dieléctricas mejoradas mediante la incorporación de nanopartículas cerámicas. Se estudió la influencia de la adición de dos tipos de óxidos cerámicos en tamaño nanométrico, α- alúmina (α-Al2O3) y circonia (ZrO2), en las propiedades y microestructura de la porcelana triaxial, al variar la concentración de las nanopartículas en la composición inicial. En la primera parte de la experimentación, se elaboraron probetas experimentales siguiendo un proceso a nivel laboratorio haciendo uso de un conformado por presión uniaxial. Posteriormente, se elaboraron pastas porcelánicas a nivel planta-prototipo mediante un proceso de conformado por extrusión plástica. Las probetas sinterizadas fueron caracterizadas mediante evaluaciones físicas tales como densidad, porosidad, absorción de humedad y contracción lineal; así mismo se llevaron a cabo análisis microestructurales y de fases a través de las técnicas de DR-X, MEB y DSC-TGA. Por último, se realizaron evaluaciones mecánicas por medio de ensayos de resistencia a la compresión y módulo de ruptura (por tres puntos), así como la evaluación de la capacidad aislante con pruebas de resistencia dieléctrica. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran que la inserción de nanopartículas de alúmina y circonia, ayudan en el reforzamiento mecánico del sistema porcelánico triaxial estudiado, además de mejorar sus características dieléctricas, lo que representa una alternativa tecnológicamente factible para mejorar el desempeño de productos de porcelana, como es el caso de aisladores eléctricos

O processamento térmico de materiais cerâmicos via energia de microondas, no estágio atual, vem ganhando cada dia mais importância, tendo em vista suas inúmeras aplicações, como por exemplo: aplicação de microondas na área de processamento mineral (aquecimento de minérios antes da moagem, secagem, redução carbotérmica de óxidos minerais, lixiviação, fusão, pré-tratamento de minérios e concentrados de ouro refratário, regeneração de carvão, etc. de acordo com Kigman & Rowson, 1998). Em virtude de uma série de vantagens em potencial, frente aos métodos convencionais de aquecimento, como redução no tempo de processamento; economia de energia; diminuição do diâmetro médio das partículas e melhoramento nas propriedades tecnológicas em geral, esta tecnologia vem se destacando. Neste contexto, o objetivo geral deste trabalho, é desenvolver uma pesquisa visando identificar e caracterizar novas opções de matérias-primas cerâmicas como argilas, feldspatos e caulins que sejam eficazes para definir a formulação de uma ou mais massas para produção de componentes de cerâmica estrutural com propriedades físicas, mecânicas e estéticas adequadas após passarem por sinterização convencional e por energia de microondas destacando as vantagens desta última. Além dos requisitos técnicos e de processo, as formulações apresentadas deverão atender às expectativas de preço e de logística de fornecimento. No estudo foram conformados corpos-de-prova por extrusão e prensagem, sinterizados em fornos microondas e convencional, sob ciclos de queima mais rápidos que os atualmente praticados. As matérias-primas foram caracterizadas e analisadas, utilizando as técnicas de fluorescência por raios X (FRX), difração por raios X (DRX), análise térmica diferencial (DTA), análise térmica gravimétrica (DTG), análise granulométrica (AG), microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV), absorção d agua (AA), massa especifica aparente (MEA), porosidade aparente (PA), retração linear (RL) e tensão de ruptura e flexão (TRF). Os resultados obtidos indicaram que as propriedades tecnológicas de Absorção de água (AA) e Tensão de Ruptura e flexão (TRF), proposto no trabalho foram adquiridos com sucesso e estão bem além do limite exigido pelas especificações das normas da ABNT NBR 15.270/05 e 15.310/09

Magnetic ceramics have been widely investigated, especially with respect to intrinsic and extrinsic characteristics of these materials. Among the magnetic ceramic materials of technological interest, there are the ferrites. On the other hand, the thermal treatment of ceramic materials by microwave energy has offered various advantages such as: optimization of production processes, high heat control, low consumption of time and energy among others. In this work were synthesized powders of Ni-Zn ferrite with compositions Ni1- xZnxFe2O4 (0.25 ≤ x ≤ 0.75 mols) by the polymeric precursor route in two heat treatment conditions, conventional oven and microwave energy at 500, 650, 800 and 950°C and its structural, and morphological imaging. The materials were characterized by thermal analysis (TG/ DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), absorption spectroscopy in the infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray spectroscopy and energy dispersive (EDS) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). The results of X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of ferrite with spinel-type cubic structure. The extrinsic characteristics of the powders obtained by microwave calcination and influence significantly the magnetic behavior of ferrites, showing particles ferrimagnéticas characterized as soft magnetic materials (soft), is of great technological interest. The results obtained led the potential application of microwave energy for calcining powders of Ni-Zn ferrite

Metal-ceramic interfaces are present in tricone drill bits with hard ceramic inserts for oil well drilling operations. The combination of actions of cutting, crushing and breaking up of rocks results in the degradation of tricone drill bits by wear, total or partial rupture of the drill bit body or the ceramic inserts, thermal shock and corrosion. Also the improper pressfitting of the ceramic inserts on the bit body may cause its total detachment, and promote serious damages to the drill bit. The improvement on the production process of metal-ceramic interfaces can eliminate or minimize some of above-mentioned failures presented in tricone drill bits, optimizing their lifetime and so reducing drilling metric cost. Brazing is a widely established technique to join metal-ceramic materials, and may be an excellent alternative to the common mechanical press fitting process of hard ceramic inserts on the steel bit body for tricone drill bit. Wetting phenomena plays an essential role in the production of metal/ceramic interfaces when a liquid phase is present in the process. In this work, 72Silver-28Copper eutectic based brazing alloys were melted onto zirconia, silicon nitride and tungsten carbide/Co substrates under high vacuum. Contact angle evolution was measured and graphically plotted, and the interfaces produced were analysed by SEM-EDX. The AgCu eutectic alloy did not wet any ceramic substrates, showing high contact angles, and so without chemical interaction between the materials. Better results were found for the systemns containing 3%wt of titanium in the AgCu alloy. The presence os titanium as a solute in the alloy produces wettable cand termodinamically stable compounds, increasing the ceramics wetting beahviour
