O presente trabalho desenvolve a análise qualitativa de carbonetos existentes em um tubo de aço 1,25Cr-0,5Mo envelhecido em condições de fluência em um reformador. A análise é feita mediante difração de raios X utilizando a técnica de pós, XRPD. Para a separação dos precipitados da amostra do aço, recorre-se a um método de dissolução ácida da matriz ferrítica. O método de dissolução ácida permitiu a separação do carboneto M2C da matriz ferrítica, o mesmo foi identificado por difração de raios X. Adicionalmente, comparam-se os dados obtidos experimentalmente com os resultados dos cálculos teóricos de equilíbrio termodinâmico realizados com o aplicativo MT-DATA. É de se esperar que no aço estudado a condição equilíbrio termodinâmico à temperatura de operação do reformador (500-550 °C) tenha sido alcançada, devido a que este permaneceu nesta situação por um período de aproximadamente 34 anos. Os resultados do modelamento termodinâmico realizado com o aplicativo MT-DATA indicam que para a faixa de temperaturas de 500-550ºC as fases em equilíbrio deveriam ser ferrita e o carboneto M23C6. No entanto, a análise experimental por XRPD demonstrou que o carboneto M2C é o único carboneto existente no aço estudado.

A crescente preocupação com o meio ambiente, associada com o aumento da população e conseqüentemente da geração de resíduos, induz pesquisas no sentido de viabilizar o aproveitamento de resíduos como matéria-prima para a produção de materiais. O resíduo sólido gerado no processo de acabamento de peças de zamac é, devido às suas características iniciais, uma fonte potencialmente interessante de matéria-prima para a obtenção de produtos cerâmicos. Este trabalho apresenta um estudo de obtenção de materiais cerâmicos utilizando o resíduo sólido gerado no acabamento de peças de zamac como matéria-prima. Para tanto, foi realizada a caracterização do resíduo através de análise química, mineralógica, morfológica, termogravimétrica, granulométrica, determinação do teor de umidade, perda ao fogo, área superficial, bem como a caracterização quanto aos riscos ao meio ambiente. Para comprovar o potencial de utilização do resíduo como matéria-prima para a produção de materiais cerâmicos foram confeccionados corpos-de-prova utilizando somente o resíduo. Estes corpos-de-prova foram caracterizados quanto as suas propriedades físicas e mecânicas Devido ao fato dos corpos-de-prova confeccionados somente com o resíduo apresentarem alta porosidade e conseqüentemente baixa resistência mecânica, foram confeccionados corpos-de-prova com diferentes formulações de vidro adicionado ao resíduo. O vidro utilizado foi caracterizado quanto a sua distribuição granulométrica e composição química. Estes corpos-de-prova foram caracterizados quanto as suas propriedades físicas, mecânicas, mineralógicas, microestruturais. Também foi avaliada a compatibilidade ambiental do processo de queima de corpos-de-prova, através da determinação das emissões gasosas geradas no processo. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que o material cerâmico produzido pode ser utilizado como placas cerâmicas para revestimento.

Micropartículas nanorrevestidas foram preparadas através da secagem por aspersão empregando-se suspensões de nanocápsulas poliméricas como material de revestimento. Uma matriz 2³ foi empregada, e os fatores analisados foram o método de preparação de nanocápsulas (nanoprecipitação e emulsificação-difusão), o polímero [poli(ε-caprolactona) e Eudragit® RS100] e a forma de inclusão da indometacina nas micropartículas (nanocápsulas ou núcleo). Duas formulações adicionais foram preparadas associando a indometacina ao dióxido de silício em etapa única, empregando nanocápsulas obtidas através do método de nanoprecipitação com a poli(ε-caprolactona) e com o Eudragit® RS100. As suspensões de nanocápsulas foram caracterizadas através da medida do pH, do tamanho médio de partícula, do potencial zeta e da eficiência de encapsulação. As micropartículas nanorrevestidas foram caracterizadas quanto ao tamanho de partícula, a taxa de associação, ao rendimento, a área superficial e ao volume de poros. A análise morfológica foi realizada através da microscopia eletrônica de varredura e da microscopia óptica. Também foram determinados o tamanho médio de partícula e o potencial zeta dos pós ressuspendidos. Os perfis de dissolução foram avaliados em tampão fosfato pH 6,8 através da eficiência de dissolução, dos fatores de similaridade e de diferença, da modelagem matemática e do modelo da Lei da Potência. O conjunto dos resultados permitiu selecionar as formulações preparadas com Eudragit® RS100 como sendo as mais promissoras, porque apresentaram maior controle da liberação do fármaco. Em relação à técnica de preparação das nanocápsulas foi selecionada a nanoprecipitação, pois possibilitou a redução de tensoativos, o que torna o processo de secagem mais eficiente. Além disso, a estratégia de associação do fármaco em uma etapa demonstrou perfis de liberação mais controlados para as micropartículas nanorrevestidas. A modelagem matemática empregando a Lei da Potência permitiu a proposição de um modelo de dissolução, a desaglomeração do sistema nanorrevestido microparticulado.

Tendo em vista o controle da porosidade da matriz polimérica de micropartículas constituídas por blendas de poli(hidroxibutirato-co-hidroxivalerato) [P(HBHV)] e de poli- ε-caprolactona (PCL), o presente trabalho objetivou verificar a possibilidade de controle da liberação de fármacos associados a esses sistemas. Foram preparadas micropartículas constituídas de blendas de P(HBHV):PCL nas proporções de 100:0, 90:10 e 80:20 (m/m) pelo método de emulsificação/evaporação de solvente, variandose o volume de fase orgânica. Os modelos de fármacos utilizados foram a dexametasona e o acetato de dexametasona. As micropartículas obtidas apresentaram rendimento e eficiência de encapsulação satisfatória, entretanto, através de análises por microscopia óptica e microscopia eletrônica de varredura foi evidenciada a ocorrência de cristais de fármaco não encapsulado. Os diâmetros de partícula permaneceram em torno de 100 a 200 μm e variaram em função do volume de fase orgânica. A área superficial foi afetada pelo percentual de PCL na blenda e pela presença de cristais do fármaco nas formulações. A análise térmica das amostras demonstrou que o processo de obtenção alterou a estrutura cristalina do P(HBHV) e que a encapsulação dos fármacos levou à variação da sua temperatura de transição vítrea e cristalinidade. Os perfis de dissolução da dexametasona a partir das micropartículas apresentaram ajustes adequados ao modelo monoexponencial e foram semelhantes aos perfis apresentados pelo fármaco não encapsulado. Nas formulações contendo acetato de dexametasona houve liberação sustentada do fármaco por até 250 horas quando associado aos sistemas e a modelagem matemática indicou ajuste dos perfis ao modelo biexponencial. Evidenciou-se um aumento nos valores das constantes de liberação dos fármacos conforme o acréscimo do conteúdo de PCL na blenda.

O pantoprazol (PAN) é um inibidor da bomba de prótons clinicamente empregado para o tratamento de úlcera gástrica e refluxo gastro-esofágico. Estudos relacionados à estabilidade físico-química mostraram que a degradação do PAN está diretamente relacionada com a acidez do meio, determinando a necessidade de administrá-lo em uma forma gastrorresistente. Desse modo, este trabalho propôs-se a desenvolver micropartículas à base de polímero gastrorresistente (Eudragit S100®), polímero de baixa permeabilidade (Eudragit RS30D®) ou de blenda polimérica (Eudragit S100®/ Eudragit RS30D®), contendo PAN pela técnica de spraydrying . O estudo de dissolução in vitro utilizando célula de fluxo demonstrou que o PAN foi liberado das micropartículas em 120 minutos, seguindo cinética de primeira ordem, de acordo com o modelo monoexponencial. A avaliação da gastrorresistência in vitro em célula de fluxo e em dissolutor evidenciou que as formulações de micropartículas à base de Eudragit S100® e da blenda (Eudragit S100®/ Eudragit RS30D®), garantiram adequada proteção ao fármaco em ambiente ácido. Estudos in vivo confirmaram esses resultados, pois possibilitaram a constatação da proteção do fármaco pelas micropartículas durante a passagem pelo estômago, o que possibilitou absorção entérica do PAN em quantidade adequada para exercer atividade farmacológica. Por fim, a investigação ex vivo da permeação do PAN carreado por micropartículas no epitélio intestinal mostrou que estes sistemas foram capazes de garantir a absorção da totalidade do fármaco carreado, constatando-se ainda que este processo ocorreu segundo o modelo monoexponencial.

The direct use of natural gas makes the Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) potentially more competitive with the current energy conversions technologies. The Intermediate Temperature SOFC (IT-SOFC) offer several advantages over the High Temperature SOFC (HT-SOFC), which includes better thermal compatibility among components, fast start with lower energy consumption, manufacture and operation cost reduction. The CeO2 based materials are alternatives to the Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) to application in SOFC, as they have higher ionic conductivity and less ohmic losses comparing to YSZ, and they can operate at lower temperatures (500-800°C). Ceria has been doped with a variety of cations, although, the Gd3+ has the ionic radius closest to the ideal one to form solid solution. These electrolytes based in ceria require special electrodes with a higher performance and chemical and termomechanical compatibility. In this work compounds of gadolinia-doped ceria, Ce1-xGdxO2-δ (x = 0,1; 0,2 and 0,3), used as electrolytes, were synthesized by polymeric precursors method, Pechini, as well as the composite material NiO - Ce0,9Gd0,1O1,95, used as anode, also attained by oxide mixture method, mixturing the powders of the both phases calcinated already. The materials were characterized by X ray diffraction, dilatometry and scanning electronic microscopy. The refinement of the diffraction data indicated that all the Ce1-xGdxO2-δ powders were crystallized in a unique cubic phase with fluorite structure, and the composite synthesized by Pechini method produced smaller crystallite size in comparison with the same material attained by oxide mixture method. All the produced powders had nanometric characteristics. The composite produced by Pechini method has microstructural characteristics that can increase the triple phase boundaries (TPB) in the anode, improving the cell efficiency, as well as reducing the mass transport mechanism effect that provokes anode degradation

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

The study aimed at the treatment of attapulgite for the development and characterization of composite recycled low density polyethylene - PEBD_rec embedded with natural attapulgite - ATP_NAT, sifted - ATP_PN and attapulgite treated with sulfuric acid - ATP_TR in different compositions (1, 3 and 5%) and compared with the PEBD_rec. The atapulgitas, natural, screened and treated, were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), particle size analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and determining the area specific surface (BET). The composites were characterized by thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Xray diffraction (XRD), torque rheometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and traction. The composite PEBD_rec / ATP (natural, sieved and treated) were produced by mixing in the molten state in a single screw extruder matrix wire with subsequent reprocessing matrix tape. It was found that the screening of attapulgite not reduce the quantity of quartz and the acid treatment completely extracted dolomite aggregate impurities of the channels attapulgite, and increase their surface area. The addition of attapulgite in PEBD_rec acts as a catalyst, reducing the thermal stability of the polymer. The increased concentration of attapulgite, increases resistance and reduces the elongation at break and modulus of elasticity of the composite PEBD_rec / attapulgite

The Rio do Peixe Basin represents a main basin of northeastern Brazil and pioneering work positioned the rocks of this basin in the Early Cretaceous. However, a recent study, based on integrated pollen analysis from three wells, found an unprecedented siliciclastic sedimentary section, in the region, of early Devonian age. Therefore, the present study aims a detailed petrographic and petrological analysis of this devonian section, in the Rio do Peixe Basin and proposes a diagenetic evolution, to understand the characteristics of the porous system, identify the main reservoir petrofacies with the main factors impacting on the quality of these rocks as reservoirs and a quick study on the provenance of this section. The petrographic study was based on samples obtained from subsurface and surface. The diagenetic evolution of petrofacies and its identification were based only on subsurface samples and the study of provenance was based on surface samples. The thin sections were prepared from sandstones, pelites and sandstones intercalated with pelites. The original detrital composition for this section is arcosean and the main diagenetic processes that affected these rocks occur in various depths and different conditions, which resulted in extensive diagenetic variety. The following processes were identified: early fracture and healing of grains; albitization of K-feldspar and plagioclase; siderite; precipitation of silica and feldspar; mechanical infiltration of clay and its transformation to illite/esmectite and illite; autigenesis of analcime; dissolution; autigenesis of chlorite; dolomite/ferrous dolomite/anquerite; apatite; calcite; pyrite; titanium minerals and iron oxide-hidroxide. The occurrence of a recently discovered volcanism, in the Rio do Peixe Basin, may have influenced the diagenetic evolution of this section. Three diagenetic stages affected the Devonian section: eo, meso and telodiagenesis. This section is compositionally quite feldspathic, indicating provenance from continental blocks, between transitional continental and uplift of the basement. From this study, we observed a wide heterogeneity in the role of the studied sandstones as reservoirs. Seven petrofacies were identified, taking into account the main diagenetic constituent responsible for the reduction of porosity. It is possible that the loss of original porosity was influenced by intense diagenesis in these rocks, where the main constituent for the loss of porosity are clays minerals, oxides and carbonate cement (calcite and dolomite)

Bioidentical hormones are defined as compounds that have exactly the same chemical and molecular structure as hormones that are produced in the human body. It is believed that the use of hormones may be safer and more effective than the non-bioidentical hormones, because binding to receptors in the organism would be similar to the endogenous hormone. Bioidentical estrogens have been used in menopausal women, as an alternative to traditional hormone replacement therapy. Thermal data of these hormones are scarce in literature. Thermal analysis comprises a group of techniques that allows evaluating the physical-chemistry properties of a drug, while the drug is subjected to a controlled temperature programming. The thermal techniques are used in pharmaceutical studies for characterization of drugs, purity determination, polymorphism identification, compatibility and evaluation of stability. This study aims to characterize the bioidentical hormones estradiol and estriol through thermal techniques TG/DTG, DTA, DSC, DSC-photovisual. By the TG curves analysis was possible to calculated kinetic parameters for the samples. The kinetic data showed that there is good correlation in the different models used. For both estradiol and estriol, was found zero order reaction, which enabled the construction of the vapor pressure curves. Data from DTA and DSC curves of melting point and purity are the same of literature, showed relation with DSC-photovisual results. The analysis DTA curves showed the fusion event had the best linearity for both hormones. In the evaluation of possible degradation products, the analysis of the infrared shows no degradation products in the solid state

Retinoic acid (RA) and hydroquinone (HQ) assets are widely used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations, for having depigmenting properties and are largely produced in drugstores. To assist in the development of formulations containing the active RA and HQ National Forms of Brazilian Pharmacopoeia (2005 and 2012 ) proposes formulations with different excipients such as cetyl alcohol (AC), cetostearyl alcohol (ACT), methylparaben (MTP), propyl paraben ( PPB), glycerin (GLY), dipropylene glycol (DPG), imidazolidinil urea ( IMD ), cyclomethicone (CCM ), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), octyl stearate (ETO), EDTA, decil oleate (ODC) and hydroxipropymethyl celullose (HPMC). One of the difficulties found in most cosmetic formulations is the large number of incompatibilities between the components of the formulations, so the aim this study was to evaluate thermal stability and interactions between these active pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients. The depigmenting agents were analyzed by DSC and TG and excipients were analyzed by TG. The dynamic thermogravimetric curves were obtained on a SHIMADZU thermobalance, model DTG-60, using an alumina crucible, at the heating rate of 10ºC min-1, in the temperature range of 25-900 ºC, under an atmosphere of nitrogen at 50 mL min-1. The DSC curves were obtained using Shimadzu calorimeter, model DSC-60, using aluminum crucible, at the heating rate of 10ºC min-1, in the temperature range of 25-400ºC. The thermogravimetric and calorimetric curves were analyzed using TASYS software SHIMADZU. In this study no were found interactions between AR and the following excipients: MTP, PPB, IMD, ODC, EDTA, CCM, ETO, HPMC. However, were found interactions with the following excipients: AC, ACT, BHT, GLI and DPG. For HQ were found interactions with IMD and DPG. Interactions remained even changing proportions of the mixtures and the ternary. Thus, the studies conducted with excipients of National Formulary from 2005 and 2012 showed that these new excipients do not interact by thermogravimetry with the active pharmaceutical ingredients of this study

This work involved the synthesis, characterization and proposing the molecular structure of coordination compounds involving ligands pyrazine-2-carboxamide (PZA) and 4- hydrazide acidic pyridine carboxylic (INH) and metals of the first transition series (M = Co2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+). For the characterization of the compounds used were analytical techniques such as infrared absorption spectroscopy average (FT-IR) molar conductivity measurements, CHN elemental analysis, EDTA Complexometric, measurement of melting point, X-ray diffraction by powder method, Thermogravimetry (TG) and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) and Simultaneous Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The absorption spectra in the infrared region suggested that the ligand coordination to the metal center occurs through the carbonyl oxygen atom and nitrogen alpha pyrazine ring to those complexes formed with PZA. For INH complexes with metal-ligand coordination is through the carbonyl oxygen and nitrogen of the terminal hydrazide grouping. The conductivity measurements of the complexes in aqueous solution they suggest to all behavior of the type 1:2 electrolytes, and conduct of non-electrolytes in acetonitrile. The results obtained by CHN elemental analysis and EDTA Complexometric allowed to infer the stoichiometry of the compounds synthesized. For all of the complexes obtained was possible to record the melting points, neither of which melted near the melting temperature of the free ligands. The X-ray diffraction showed that the complexes of pyrazinamide exhibited diffraction lines, suggesting that these compounds are crystalline, while compounds of isoniazid, with the exception of cobalt, exhibited diffraction lines, indicating that they are crystalline. The results from the TG-DTA and DSC allowed information regarding the dehydration and thermal decomposition of these complexes

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo investigar as características de filmes de SnO2 depositados em substrato de vidro borosilicato por um processo de silk-screen modificado para obtenção de espessura fina compatível com a aplicação em células solares policristalinas de baixo custo. O filme de SnO2 é um dos mais apropriados para obtenção de vidro TCO (transparent conductive oxide) para uso em células solares devido a sua baixa resistividade elétrica e alta transmitância, sendo quimicamente inerte, mecanicamente duro e tem resistência a altas temperaturas, o que facilita então a calcinação das amostras entre 500º C a 550º C. Os filmes foram obtidos a partir de uma solução precursora básica, preparada pela dissolução de SnCl2.2H2O em Etanol (99,5 %). Foi realizado um planejamento fatorial 2(3-1) para analisar a influência dos parâmetros concentração da solução precursora (CETN), temperatura de calcinação (TC) e taxa de aquecimento (tX) na calcinação, sendo a concentração CETN o parâmetro que apresentou maior efeito sobre os parâmetros de respostas investigados: espessura do filme (ω), resistividade de superfície (ρ) e a transmitância relativa (θ). Foi possível obter com a metodologia utilizada, filmes com espessuras da ordem de 1 Nm com resistividade de superfície de 10 / e transmitância relativa entre 70 e 80 %.
