Construção, caracterização e aplicação de eletrodos para descarga por arco de cátodo oco

The system built to characterize electrodes and, consequently, deposited fine films are constituted by a hollow cathode that works to discharges and low pressures (approximately 10-3 to 5 mbar), a source DC (0 to 1200 V), a cylindrical camera of closed borossilicato for flanges of stainless steel with an association of vacuum bombs mechanical and spread. In the upper flange it is connected the system of hollow cathode, which possesses an entrance of gas and two entrances for its refrigeration, the same is electrically isolated of the rest of the equipment and it is polarized negatively. In front of the system of hollow cathode there is a movable sample in stainless steel with possibility of moving in the horizontal and vertical. In the vertical, the sample can vary its distance between 0 and 70 mm and, in the horizontal, can leave completely from the front of the hollow cathode. The sample and also the cathode hollow are equipped with cromel-alumel termopares with simultaneous reading of the temperatures during the time of treatment. In this work copper electrodes, bronze, titanium, iron, stainless steel, powder of titanium, powder of titanium and silício, glass and ceramic were used. The electrodes were investigated relating their geometry change and behavior of the plasma of the cavity of hollow cathode and channel of the gas. As the cavity of hollow cathode, the analyzed aspects were the diameter and depth. With the channel of the gas, we verified the diameter. In the two situations, we investigated parameters as flow of the gas, pressure, current and applied tension in the electrode, temperature, loss of mass of the electrode with relationship at the time of use. The flow of gas investigated in the electrodes it was fastened in a work strip from 15 to 6 sccm, the constant pressure of work was among 2.7 to 8 x 10-2 mbar. The applied current was among a strip of work from 0,8 to 0,4 A, and their respective tensions were in a strip from 400 to 220 V. Fixing the value of the current, it was possible to lift the curve of the behavior of the tension with the time of use. That curves esteem in that time of use of the electrode to its efficiency is maximum. The temperatures of the electrodes were in the dependence of that curves showing a maximum temperature when the tension was maximum, yet the measured temperatures in the samples showed to be sensitive the variation of the temperature in the electrodes. An accompaniment of the loss of mass of the electrode relating to its time of use showed that the electrodes that appeared the spherical cavities lost more mass in comparison with the electrodes in that didn't appear. That phenomenon is only seen for pressures of 10-2 mbar, in these conditions a plasma column is formed inside of the channel of the gas and in certain points it is concentrated in form of spheres. Those spherical cavities develop inside of the channel of the gas spreading during the whole extension of the channel of the gas. The used electrodes were cut after they could not be more used, however among those electrodes, films that were deposited in alternate times and the electrodes that were used to deposit films in same times, those films were deposited in the glass substrata, alumina, stainless steel 420, stainless steel 316, silício and steel M2. As the eletros used to deposit films in alternate time as the ones that they were used to deposit in same times, the behavior of the thickness of the film obeyed the curve of the tension with relationship the time of use of the electrode, that is, when the tension was maximum, the thickness of the film was also maximum and when the tension was minimum, the thickness was minimum and in the case where the value of the tension was constant, the thickness of the film tends to be constant. The fine films that were produced they had applications with nano stick, bio-compatibility, cellular growth, inhibition of bacterias, cut tool, metallic leagues, brasagem, pineapple fiber and ornamental. In those films it was investigated the thickness, the adherence and the uniformity characterized by sweeping electronic microscopy. Another technique developed to assist the production and characterization of the films produced in that work was the caloteste. It uses a sphere and abrasive to mark the sample with a cap impression, with that cap form it is possible to calculate the thickness of the film. Through the time of life of the cathode, it was possible to evaluate the rate of waste of its material for the different work conditions. Values of waste rate up to 3,2 x 10-6 g/s were verified. For a distance of the substratum of 11 mm, the deposited film was limited to a circular area of 22 mm diameter mm for high pressures and a circular area of 75 mm for pressure strip. The obtained films presented thickness around 2,1 µm, showing that the discharge of arch of hollow cathode in argon obeys a curve characteristic of the tension with the time of life of the eletrodo. The deposition rate obtained in this system it is of approximately 0,18 µm/min

Preparação de óxidos mistos de níquel e zinco nanoparticulados a partir de combustíveis alternativos

The field of "Materials Chemistry" has been developing in recent years and there has been a great increase of interest in the synthesis and chemical and physical properties of new inorganic solids. New routes of synthesis and synthesis modified has been developed with the aim not only to optimize the processes in laboratory scale, but also on an industrial scale, and make them acceptable by current environmental legislation. The phenomenology of current solid state chemistry properties coupled with the high temperature superconductivity, ferromagnetism, porosity molecular and colors are evidence affected by the synthesis method, which in turn can influence the technological application of these materials. From this understanding, mixed oxides of nickel and zinc nanoparticulate were synthesized by microwave-assisted combustion route using three specific types of organic fuels employing the weight ratios 1:1/2 and 1:1 of cation metallic/fuel, in order to investigate the influence of such proportions to obtain the solids. The new fuels were chosen to replace, for example, urea or glycine that are the fuels most commonly preferred in this kind of synthesis. The powders without heat treatment were studied by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and then calcined at 900°C. After heat treatment, the samples were characterized by analysis of X Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The modified synthesis route porposed was effective for obtaining powders. Both the alternative fuels chosen as the different weight ratios employed, influenced in the morphology and obtaining oxides

Fabricación y caracterización de películas delgadas de óxidos transparentes con aplicaciones ópticas.

Los óxidos transparentes conductores (TCO′ s) son materiales compuestos conformados por oxígeno y un metal, que presentan una combinación única de alta estabilidad química, alta concentración electrónica y alta transparencia óptica. Por esta razón, el procesamiento de TCO′ s en película delgada va orientado hacia aplicaciones específicas tales como ventanas ópticas en celdas solares, sensores de gases, electrodos en dispositivos de pantallas planas, ventanas inteligentes. En este proyecto se trabajó en la síntesis experimental de dos TCO′ s relevantes tanto en investigación fundamental como en aplicaciones tecnológicas: el óxido de indio (In2O3) y el óxido de estaño (SnO2). Ambos TCO′ s se depositaron por la técnica de erosión iónica reactiva por corriente directa (DC). Para el análisis de las películas se utilizaron varias técnicas de caracterización: difracción de rayos X, espectroscopia UV-Visible, resistividad eléctrica, efecto Hall, así como microscopías electrónica de barrido y de fuerza atómica. Se fabricó también una bicapa de In2O3/SnO2, la cual se caracterizó además con espectroscopia de fotoemisión de rayos X (XPS).En esta tesis se reporta por primera vez la síntesis y caracterización de esta bicapa, la cual abre una línea de investigación en el área de interfaces. Asimismo, se desarrolló e implementó un procedimiento, basado en los modelos ópticos, tal que permite obtener parámetros que se utilizan para evaluar a cualquier película delgada TCO como potencial metamaterial. Las propiedades de las muestras se analizaron en función de la temperatura aplicada post-depósito: temperatura ambiente (TA), 100oC, 200oC, 300oC, bajo una atmósfera de argón o argón-oxígeno. Los resultados confirman que las películas presentan un crecimiento de tipo poli cristalino. Además, la calidad cristalina tiende a incrementarse como función del incremento de la temperatura. El In2O3 creció con estructura cúbica bcc (a=10.11 ˚A, ICDD #71-2195). A partir de 200C, se detectaron trazas de la fase romboédrica (a=5.490 ˚A, c=14.520 ˚A, ICDD #73-1809). Asimismo, el SnO2 creció con estructura tetragonal (a = 4.737 ˚A, c = 3.186 ˚A, ICDD #88-0287). Las películas de In2O3 poseen una transparencia promedio del 90 % en una ventana de 500 nm a 1100 nm. El borde de absorción se recorre al azul como función de la temperatura, de Eg=3.3 eV a Eg=3.7 eV por el efecto Burstein-Moss. Por otra parte, la bicapa presentó una interfaz claramente definida, sin difusión de especies metálicas. Al incrementarse la temperatura, de TA a 400oC, se detectaron dos fases de óxido de estaño: SnO2 y SnO, en un porcentaje atómico de ≈70 %:30 %, respectivamente. Se concluye que los parámetros y valores obtenidos de las películas como son el texturizado y espesor homogéneo, alta transparencia, crecimiento preferencial, ancho prohibido y resistividad eléctrica, son comparables a los que se requieren del In2O3 y SnO2 en película delgada para aplicaciones optoelectrónicas.

Influencia de la inserción de nano-óxidos cerámicos sobre la microestructura y propiedades de una porcelana triaxial.

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

Pirólise rápida catalítica do capim elefante utilizando materiais mesoporosos e óxidos metálicos para deoxigenação em bio-óleo

The fast pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass is a thermochemical conversion process for production energy which have been very atratactive due to energetic use of its products: gas (CO, CO2, H2, CH4, etc.), liquid (bio-oil) and charcoal. The bio-oil is the main product of fast pyrolysis, and its final composition and characteristics is intrinsically related to quality of biomass (ash disposal, moisture, content of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin) and efficiency removal of oxygen compounds that cause undesirable features such as increased viscosity, instability, corrosiveness and low calorific value. The oxygenates are originated in the conventional process of biomass pyrolysis, where the use of solid catalysts allows minimization of these products by improving the bio-oil quality. The present study aims to evaluate the products of catalytic pyrolysis of elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum) using solid catalysts as tungsten oxides, supported or not in mesoporous materials like MCM-41, derived silica from rice husk ash, aimed to reduce oxygenates produced in pyrolysis. The biomasss treatment by washing with heated water (CEL) or washing with acid solution (CELix) and application of tungsten catalysts on vapors from the pyrolysis process was designed to improve the pyrolysis products quality. Conventional and catalytic pyrolysis of biomass was performed in a micro-pyrolyzer, Py-5200, coupled to GC/MS. The synthesized catalysts were characterized by X ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, X ray fluorescence, temperature programmed reduction and thermogravimetric analysis. Kinetic studies applying the Flynn and Wall model were performed in order to evaluate the apparent activation energy of holoceluloce thermal decomposition on samples elephant grass (CE, CEL and CELix). The results show the effectiveness of the treatment process, reducing the ash content, and were also observed decrease in the apparent activation energy of these samples. The catalytic pyrolysis process converted most of the oxygenate componds in aromatics such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, etc

Modelos de transferência de metal pesado na cana-de-açúcar adubada com composto de lixo urbano

The research approaches recycling of urban waste compost (UWC) as an alternative fertilizer for sugarcane crop and as a social and environmental solution to the solids residuals growth in urban centers. A mathematical model was used in order to know the metal dynamics as decision support tool, aiming to establish of criteria and procedures for UWC's safe use, limited by the amount of heavy metal. A compartmental model was developed from experimental data in controlled conditions and partially checked with field data. This model described the heavy metal transference in the system soil-root-aerial portion of sugarcane plants and concluded that nickel was metal to be concern, since it takes approximately three years to be attenuated in the soil, reaching the aerial portions of the plant at high concentrations. Regarding factors such as clay content, oxide level and soil pH, it was observed that for soil with higher buffering capacity, the transfer of the majority of the metals was slower. This model may become an important tool for the attainment of laws regarding the UWC use, aiming to reduce environment contamination the waste accumulation and production costs.
