Polymer matrix composites offer advantages for many applications due their combination of properties, which includes low density, high specific strength and modulus of elasticity and corrosion resistance. However, the application of non-destructive techniques using magnetic sensors for the evaluation these materials is not possible since the materials are non-magnetizable. Ferrites are materials with excellent magnetic properties, chemical stability and corrosion resistance. Due to these properties, these materials are promising for the development of polymer composites with magnetic properties. In this work, glass fiber / epoxy circular plates were produced with 10 wt% of cobalt or barium ferrite particles. The cobalt ferrite was synthesized by the Pechini method. The commercial barium ferrite was subjected to a milling process to study the effect of particle size on the magnetic properties of the material. The characterization of the ferrites was carried out by x-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission gun scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). Circular notches of 1, 5 and 10 mm diameter were introduced in the composite plates using a drill bit for the non-destructive evaluation by the technique of magnetic flux leakage (MFL). The results indicated that the magnetic signals measured in plates with barium ferrite without milling and cobalt ferrite showed good correlation with the presence of notches. The milling process for 12 h and 20 h did not contribute to improve the identification of smaller size notches (1 mm). However, the smaller particle size produced smoother magnetic curves, with fewer discontinuities and improved signal-to-noise ratio. In summary, the results suggest that the proposed approach has great potential for the detection of damage in polymer composites structures

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

Metal-Ceramic (M/C) Zirconia-stainless steel interfaces have been processed through brazing techniques due to the excellent combination of properties such as high temperature stability, high corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. However, some M/C interfaces show some defects, like porosity and cracks results in the degradation of the interfaces, leading even to its total rupture. Most of time, those defects are associated with an improper brazing parameters selection to the M/C system. In this work, ZrO2 Y-TZP and ZrO2 Mg - PSZ were joint with the stainless steel grade 304 by brazing using a eutectic silver-copper (Ag28Cu) interlayer alloy with different thermal cycles. Ceramic surfaces were previous mechanically metallized with titanium to improve adhesion of the system. The effect of temperature on the M/C interface was studied. SEM-EDS and 3 point flexural bend test were performed to evaluate morphology, chemical composition and mechanical resistance of the M/C interfaces. Lower thermal cycle temperatures produced better results of mechanical resistance, and more regular/ homogeneous reaction layers between braze alloy and metal-ceramic surfaces. Also was proved the AgCu braze alloy activation in situ by titanium

As ligas com memória de forma Ni-Ti apresentam diversas características bastante úteis, das quais podemos realçar a sua elevada resistência à corrosão, às vibrações e geração de forças superiores quando comparadas com outros atuadores. Estas ligas apresentam diversas áreas de aplicabilidade em diferentes aéreas de pesquisa, como a metalomecânica, a robótica, aplicações espaciais, sendo mais relevante para este trabalho a sua aplicação em mecanismos de segurança para portas e acessos. Com este trabalho, pretendemos contribuir para uma forma eficaz de combate e contenção de incêndios em navios, através da apresentação de um mecanismo que vai permitir o corte de ventilação e isolamento no local do incêndio, permitindo criar uma fronteira de fumos que levará ao combate do incêndio por asfixia. O trabalho descreve um mecanismo idealizado com a utilização de ligas com memória de forma, que vai proceder à libertação de um flap, para isolamento da ventilação, na presença de temperatura proveniente do incêndio. Descreve também ensaios termomecânicos realizados, para determinação das características das molas e seu comportamento em determinadas situações chave. Para isto, irão ser utilizadas duas molas com diferentes gamas de temperatura, com o intuito de demonstrar a eficácia na utilização de diversos atuadores de ligas com memória de forma. Todos os testes foram feitos na presença de gamas de temperatura que se assemelham aos valores de atuação dos sistemas automáticos de extinção por água, pelo que os resultados obtidos, ilustram a verdadeira eficácia e utilidade do mecanismo, em casos reais.

The addition of active silica potentially improves the quality of concrete due to its high reactivity and pore refinement effect. The reactivity of silica is likely related to its charge density. Variations in surface charge alter the reactivity of the material consequently affecting the properties of concrete. The present study aimed at investigating variations in the charge density of silica as a function of acid treatments using nitric or phosphoric acid and different pH values (2.0, 4.0 and 6.0). Effects on concrete properties including slump, mechanical strength, permeability and chloride corrosion were evaluated. To that end, a statistical analysis was carried out and empirical models that correlate studied parameters (pH, acid and cement) with concrete properties were established. The quality of the models was tested by variance analysis. The results revealed that the addition of silica was efficiency in improving the properties of concrete, especially the electrochemical parameters. The addition of silica treated using nitric acid at pH = 4.0 displayed the best cement performance including highest strength, reduced permeability and lowest corrosion current

Metallic tantalum has a high commercial value due to intrinsic properties like excellent ductility, corrosion resistance, high melt and boiling points and good electrical and thermal conductivities. Nowadays, it is mostly used in the manufacture of capacitors, due to excellent dielectric properties of its oxides. In the nature, tantalum occurs in the form of oxide and it is extracted mainly from tantalite-columbite ores. The tantalum is usually produced by the reduction of its oxide, using reductants like carbon, silicon, calcium, magnesium and aluminum. Among these techniques, the aluminothermic reduction has been used as the industrial method to produce niobium, tantalum and their alloys, due to the easy removal of the Al and Al2O3 of the system, easing further refining. In conventional aluminothermic reduction an electrical resistance is used to trigger the reaction. This reaction self-propagates for all the volume of material. In this work, we have developed a novel technique of aluminothermic reduction that uses the hydrogen plasma to trigger the reaction. The results obtained by XRD, SEM and EDS show that is possible to obtain a compound rich in tantalum through this technique of aluminothermic reduction in the plasma reactor

A evolução dos betões, na procura de estruturas com um maior tempo de vida útil, melhor desempenho ou menores custos de manutenção, tem sido alvo de pesquisa por investigadores de todo o mundo. Neste sentido, o desenvolvimento dos betões de ultra-elevado desempenho (UHPC – Ultra High Performance Concrete), permitiu, desde o seu desenvolvimento inicial, uma multiplicidade de aplicações quer a nível estrutural ou arquitetónico, aportando a estes elementos, vantagens características deste material de construção. No entanto, e particularizando um dos seus constituintes, a aplicação tradicional de fibras metálicas na composição de UHPC, poderá originar alguns fenómenos indesejados de perda de durabilidade, nomeadamente por corrosão destas. Por consequência, julga-se pertinente encontrar alternativas a este componente, de forma a que se obtenha um nível de desempenho semelhante, diminuindo o risco de ocorrência dos fenómenos anteriormente referidos. Neste sentido, o estudo que aqui se apresenta, visa efetuar uma breve abordagem à aplicação de fibras em materiais alternativos tais como fibra de vidro ou fibra de polipropileno. Serão analisadas algumas propriedades em estado fresco e endurecido de várias misturas de betão, com diferentes aplicações de fibras, quer em tipo, quer em dosagem.
