Neste trabalho são apresentados resultados que demonstram algumas das possibilidades de processamento de materiais por técnicas de plasma. O primeiro conjunto de dados relata o efeito da potência de excitação do plasma na microestrutura e nas propriedades óticas e elétricas de filmes de carbono amorfo hidrogenado depositados em atmosferas de acetileno e argônio. Neste estudo, correlações entre as propriedades dos filmes e da fase plasma são realizadas com base nas caracterizações elétricas e óticas do plasma. Observa-se que a potência do sinal de excitação afeta diretamente a densidade de energia do plasma e, por conseguinte, as propriedades dos filmes. Variações nas proporções de hidrogênio e de sítios com hibridização sp2 foram constatadas. Filmes relativamente transparentes e com elevada resistência elétrica foram obtidos em plasmas de 50 W de potência. Na segunda etapa, discute-se o efeito da implantação iônica por imersão em plasmas nas propriedades de filmes de polímeros preparados em descargas de radiofreqüência de benzeno. As amostras foram expostas, por diferentes tempos, ao plasma de imersão de argônio e o comportamento da composição química, dureza, propriedades óticas e termodinâmicas de superfície dos filmes foi obtido em função do tratamento. Os filmes tornaram-se mais absorvedores e duros revelando perda de hidrogênio e aumento no grau de reticulação e de insaturação das cadeias carbônicas com o aumento do tempo de bombardeamento. Na parte final, demonstra-se a versatilidade e efetividade da técnica híbrida de implantação iônica e deposição por imersão em plasmas, na produção de filmes com diferentes composições químicas e propriedades de superfície, em função da proporção de gases nobres e reativos na descarga...

The Tahiti lime appears very susceptible to attack by post-harvest diseases, primarily by the fungi Penicillium and Phomopsis, and also because of its high sensitivity to storage at low temperatures. In order to reduce such damage, the present study aimed to verify the efficiency of heat treatment and disinfection of pathogens in the prevention of post-harvest chilling injury of this cultivar and to compare this treatment with other products using the conventional fungicides. The heat treatments were studied with hot-water temperatures ranging between 48 and 56° C. Water at room temperature was used as a control treatment. After treatment, the fruits were kept under cold temperature at 10° C and RH 90% for about 45 days. For comparison, three other treatments were carried out simultaneously, one using imazalil, one with baking soda, and a third with sodium carbonate, these three products being applied by baths in cold water. Two groups of fruit were evaluated, one treated by immersion considering pathogens coming from the field and another by inoculation with spores of the previously isolated pathogens. For the evaluation of physical and chemical parameters of fruits, determinations were made of the skin color, texture, weight loss, size, juice yield, soluble solids, total acidity and vitamin C content. The determination of the sensitivity of the fruit to cold was made by their exposure at temperatures inducing cold damage. The design was a randomized block design with nine treatments, analyzed by the Statgraphics statistical package. Heat treatments, especially at 52° C, were shown to be more promising in the control of pathogenic fungi and cold damage, surpassing the conventional fungicides. No changes were found in the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters in relation to the application of the different treatments.

Through the polymeric precursor method were synthesized samples Ca0.98Sr0.01X0.01TiO3 (X= Eu3+, Sm3+ and Pr3+), which under different heat treatments were obtained with levels of distinct structural order-disorder. The synthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, confirming the obtaining of ahomogeneous material with perovskite-type orthorhombic structure. This characterization allowed evaluating the average crystallite size of the samples that varies depending on the rare-earth ion. The results of photoluminescence emission confirmed the presence of this optical phenomenon at room temperature and its relationship to the level of order-disorder structural system. The photoluminescence emission is more intense in samples annealed at 500 ° C (independent on the dopant ion), the variation of the dopant influence on the emission intensity due to charge transfer between the host and emitting rare-earth ion, where the doped with Pr3+ ion has charge transfer more efficient and hence more intense emission in the photoluminescence. Another factor that favors the optical property of the samples is the charge compensation, as it contributes to the increase in structural disorder due to formation of Ca2+ vacancies.

Generally most plastic materials are intrinsically hydrophobic, low surface energy materials, and thus do not adhere well to other substances. Surface treatment of polymers by discharge plasmas is of great and increasing industrial application because it can uniformly modify the surface of sample without changing the material bulk properties and is environmentally friendly. The plasma processes that can be conducted under ambient pressure and temperature conditions have attracted special attention because of their easy implementation in industrial processing. Present work deals with surface modification of polycarbonate (PC) by a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) at atmospheric pressure. The treatment was performed in a parallel plate reactor driven by a 60Hz power supply. The DBD plasmas at atmospheric pressure were generated in air and nitrogen. Material characterization was carried out by contact angle measurements, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The surface energy of the polymer surface was calculated from contact angle data by Owens-Wendt method using distilled water and diiodomethane as test liquids. The plasma-induced chemical modifications are associated with incorporation of polar oxygen and nitrogen containing groups on the polymer surface. Due to these surface modifications the DBD-treated polymers become more hydrophilic. Aging behavior of the treated samples revealed that the polymer surfaces were prone to hydrophobic recovery although they did not completely recover their original wetting properties.
