Polímeros são macromoléculas de alta massa molecular cada vez mais presentes nas atividades humanas. Estas moléculas são utilizadas com frequência para sintetizar plásticos, elastômeros e fibras. Os polímeros podem ser divididos em naturais e sintéticos. Os polímeros de origem natural são aqueles encontrados na natureza, como por exemplo: celulose, hemicelulose, glicogênio, proteínas, amido, lignina, entre outros. Os polímeros sintéticos são aqueles produzidos pela síntese química induzida pelo ser humano, como os diferentes tipos de plásticos. Contudo, alguns destes materiais sintéticos possuem alta durabilidade acarretando grande acúmulo de resíduos que contaminam o meio ambiente. O poliacrilato de sódio (PAS) é uma destas moléculas sintéticas que funciona como superabsorvente utilizado em grande escala nas fraldas descartáveis. A aplicação do PAS nas fraldas permitiu diminuir o volume deste material sem perda da eficácia. Cerca de 136 milhões de quilos de polímeros de poliacrilato são utilizados anualmente. Buscando diminuir a quantidade deste material no meio ambiente, são necessários estudos que viabilizem alternativas de sua decomposição. Dentre as opções viáveis está o processo de biodegradação, que é caracterizado pela ação de seres vivos, sobretudo os pertencentes ao grupo dos microrganismos (bactérias e fungos), que utilizam o material para retirar a energia para o seu desenvolvimento. Este projeto tem como objetivo avaliar a biodegradabilidade do poliacrilato de sódio (PAS) e modificar sua estrutura via degradação microbiana. Análises descritivas e comparativas são as bases para o estudo e compreensão da biodegradação do PAS. Para os testes de biodegradação serão utilizados microrganismos do solo e o fungo Aspergillus niger. Após 8 meses de biodegradação do composto enterrado pôde-se concluir através...

The most usual method to fix supports that hold the vast majority of electrical cables on an aircraft is accomplished by using, for this purpose, rivets. However, this procedure may some cause some inconveniences such as the need of effecting holes in the structure that is intended to fix these supports, thus decreasing resistance of the structure. In order to have an alternative to seek an increase in the performance of structured materials, the aircraft industry, like other industries, have been studying the use of collage as a method of replacing this usual forms. Against this backdrop, this paper aims to assess the strength and durability of a joint bonded using the adhesive EA9394, manufactured by company Henkel Corporation, and perform a careful survey of the mechanical performance of riveted structures, taking into account different types of conditioning environment and thus create a database that can be used by the aerospace industry

This work aims to study the Dual-Phase 600 and 780 steels, which are part of technology development project materials for the automotive industry. It is worth underscoring the antagonistic properties as the Dual-Phase steel assemble, high mechanical strength and elongation due its microstructure, ferrite and martensite. These properties are obtained by a intercritical heat treatment which facilitates the formation of a hardness metastable microstructure shaped plates of low carbon steels. The applicability of Dual Phase steel in the structure of vehicles is huge and its production is already on a commercial scale, so the study and development of this material implies lower cost in automobile manufacturing processes. The dual phase steels DP600 and DP780 underwent tensile, hardness and metallographic analysis to evaluate and comparing its properties. The results indicate that the DP780 steel has higher strength and hardness than the DP600 steel and its microstructure consists of martensite higher fraction which accounts for the higher resistance and hardness. However, the DP600 has higher conformability to DP780 steel

This paper aimes to contribute to the analyzes of Caldas and Wood Jr (1997) concerning to the concept of identity. That concept has been developed in Organization Studies under the propositions of Albert and Whetten (1985). In that way, identity concept has been defined by the following characteristics: centrality, distinctiveness and continuity. Nevertheless, a new paradigm has been emerging within social science. In this paper, we present a synthesis on how the concept of identity has been discussed in Social Psychology and Cultural Studies. For both theoretical perspectives, the ideas of centrality and durability are put into doubt, as identity is seen as dynamic and fragmentary. Besides that, we intend to show how the new paradigm is getting formed within Organizational Studies, especially considering international context. Considering that the emerging organizational ideas concerning identity show proximity with those proposed by Social Psychology and Cultural Studies, we raise possible questions that the new paradigm will have to face.

Over the last few years, new technologies have been developed to making cavity preparations, among which the diamond burs CVDentus® (CVDentus, São José dos Campos, Brazil) are outstanding. These points are produced by chemical deposition from the vapor phase, forming a single diamond stone, with greater durability than the conventional diamond burs. Coupled to the ultrasound appliance, they have several clinical applications in Dentistry with advantages over conventional rotary instruments, such as lower pressure, noise, vibration and heat, as well as reducing the need to use local anesthesia, contributing to minimize patient’s fear and anxiety. The aim of this study was to present the complete restorative dental treatment performed with this system in a child patient with a prior history of non-cooperative behavior. The use of this new technology offered the patient greater comfort, making it possible recondition the patient’s attitude to dental treatment, in addition to favoring conservative cavity preparations to be made.

A Murraya paniculata, é conhecida popularmente como murta-de-cheiro ou falsamurta, pertence à família Rutaceae e é uma espécie nativa da Índia que foi introduzida no Brasil. Essa espécie é utilizada na arborização de ruas e em jardins das cidades graças à copa densa e sua resistência a condições adversas. Pode ser utilizada também para formação de cerca vivas e, sua madeira branca tem alta durabilidade podendo ser utilizada em marcenarias. Na Ásia, esta espécie é considerada medicinal e as folhas e raízes são utilizadas para o tratamento de problemas intestinais, de reumatismo e tosse. Do ponto de vista químico, esta espécie acumula principalmente cumarinas e flavonóides, além de derivados do ácido cinâmico e alcalóides. No presente trabalho propomos determinar as temperaturas cardeais para a germinação de sementes de Murraya paniculata, além disso, analisamos a influência do teor de água na germinação para determinar se as sementes são recalcitrantes ou ortodoxas, e a influencia do potencial hídrico induzido por polietilenoglicol (PEG 6000). O aprofundamento dos estudos dessa espécie se faz importante por conta desta ser hospedeira alternativa do psilídeo Diaphorina citri, transmissor do ―greening‖ dos citros, doença que diminuiu a produção de citros nos últimos anos

Despite the great development of organic and polymeric electroluminescent materials, the large scale commercial application of devices made with these materials seems conditioned to specific cases, mainly due to the high cost and the low durability, in compared to conventional technologies. In this study was produced electroluminescent devices by a process simple, drop casting. Were produced electroluminescent films containing Zn2SiO4:Mn immersed in a conductive polymer blend with different thicknesses. The morphological characteristics of these films were studied by scanning electronic microscopy. These films were used in the manufacture of electroluminescent devices, in which the light emission properties of the developed material were evaluated. The blend was composed of the conductive polymer Poly(o-methoxyaniline), doped with p-toluene sulfonic acid, and an insulating polymer, Poly(vinylidene fluoride) and its copolymer Poly(vinylidene fluoride-cotrifluoroethylene). To this blend was added Zn2SiO4:Mn, thereby forming the composite. A first set of devices was obtained using composites with different weight fraction of polymeric and inorganic phases, which were deposited by drop casting over ITO substrates. Upper electrodes of aluminum were deposited by thermal evaporation. The resulting device architecture was a sandwich type structure ITO/ composite/ Al. A second set of devices was obtained as self-sustaining films using the best composite composition obtained for the device of the first set. ITO electrodes were deposited by RF-Sputtering, in both faces of these films. The AC electrical characterization of the devices was made with impedance spectroscopy measurements, and the DC electrical characterization was performed using a source/ meter unit Keithley 2410. The devices light emission was measured using a photodiode coupled to a digital electrometer, Keithley 6517A. The devices electrooptical characterization showed that the...
