Modificação superficial de fibras de juta com descarga corona para melhora da aderência com matriz poliéster

Seeking alternatives for the total or partial substitution of synthetic fibers for natural fibers, with reinforcement in polymeric materials, this work was conducted with the objective of evaluating the treatment with corona discharge on the adherence of juta fibers with resin. The fibers were exposed to corona discharge for 1, 5, 10 and 15 minutes, as well as after treatment with hot water, molding composites fiber-reinforced with filaments treated for 10 and 15 minutes, and without the treatment. The chemical structures were evaluated by spectrometry in the region of Fourier transform infrared with attenuated total reflection (FTIR/ATR), observing the formation of a new band and the increase in the absorption of groupings with oxygen. The thermal analyses, such as thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed the degradation of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The microstructural characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed changes in the surface of the fiber, such as roughness, superficial depressions, surface degradation and cavity formation. The adhesion of the fibers was evaluated by the pullout test, allowing us to verify the increase in adhesion strength after treatment with corona discharge. In conclusion, the treatment with corona discharge changes the surface of the juta fibers, resulting in better adherence with the resin.

Caracterização microestrutural e de propriedades mecânicas de soldas do aço ASTM A 131 pelos processos FCAW convencional e com adição de arame frio

O trabalho aqui representado retrata de modo comparativo as características mecânicas e microestruturais de metais de solda empregando duas técnicas de soldagem uma já disseminada, FCAW (Soldagem a Arco Voltaico com Arame Tubular) e a outra é inovadora, FCAW-AF (Soldagem a Arco Voltaico com Arame Tubular com Adição de um Arame Frio não energizado) em três níveis de velocidades 6, 8 e 10 m/min. Sendo que este processo variou os diâmetros dos arames frio adicionados, entre 0.8 e 1.0 mm. O metal de base utilizado foi o aço naval ASTM 131 grau A (baixo carbono) em geometria de chapas de 150 mm x 300 mm x 9,5 mm, aplicadas em chanfro em V (Bisel de 22,5º) com ângulo somado de 45º, com leve abertura de raiz de 2,4 mm. A solda usada foi do tipo topo com a aplicação de dois passes, um passe de raiz e o passe de acabamento (ou enchimento). A fim averiguar as condições desses cordões de solda foram realizados 05 tipos de ensaios destrutivos, são eles: dobramento transversal de face, tração, tenacidade ao impacto (tipo Charpy com entalhe em V), microdureza e o ensaio metalográficos. Além das análises não destrutivas como o ensaio visual e o líquido penetrante. De maneira geral, os resultados para o processo FCAW-AF, mostraram-se compatíveis, em relação ao processo FCAW convencional, porém alguns resultados apresentaram valores de propriedades mecânicas menores. Este fato pode, muito provavelmente ter ocorrido pela presença de descontinuidade na junta pelo FCAW-AF. Quanto às caracterizações microestruturais, os resultados da junta FCAW-AF foram semelhantes os da FCAW convencional para todos os níveis estudados.

Determinação experimental da tenacidade à fratura em baixas temperaturas de tubos de aço API 5L X70

Because of the great metallurgical advances, the welded tubes by HF / ERW (High Frequency / Electrical Resistance Welding) have played a more active role in the oil and gas, gradually replacing tubes produced by other processes (UOE, SAW, and others) to deep water applications, in high and extremely low temperatures, highpressure conditions and in highly corrosive environments. However, studies have revealed that defects in the welded joints are in one of main causes of failures in pipelines. Associated with damage external and the stringent requirements of this sector, the welded joints become particularly critical for his toughness and the determination of this particular property is fundamental. This study aims to evaluate the toughness of the HF / ERW pipes in HSLA steel API X70 class, used in pipelines transport systems of gas and oil from data obtained with CTOD tests (Crack Tip Opening Displacement). The main objectives of this project are: mechanical and microstructural characterization of steels API X70 manufactured in Brazil; and evaluation of the toughness of weld process by HF / ERW steel API X70 national. After having the tests done, mechanical, chemical and metallurgical, we have the conclusion that those pipe are in agreement to API 5L 42ª edition for X70MO and the toughness behaves like the expected

Comportamento fractal de superfícies de fadiga em ligas aeronaúticas

Fracture surfaces express sequences of events of energy release with crack propagation in metal alloys, the evolution of topographic features can indicate the lines of load action, failures during the use or processing. The quantitative fractography is an important tool in the study of fracture surfaces, because it allows their interpretation and characterization. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the characterization of fracture surfaces grounded on concepts such as selfsimilarity and self-affinity, it used the 15-5PH steel that was characterized by metallographic and tensile tests. The metallography allows the microstructural characterization of this steel and proved the presence of the martensite phase in the slats form and a fine-grained, both in the radial and in the axial direction of the dowel. The tensile test (ASTM E8) of this material allowed the determination of the mechanical properties, so based on the obtained results it was possible to affirm that the 15-5PH steel has high mechanical properties and a good stretch. Besides, the specimens also underwent testing of crack propagation, standardized by ASTM E647-00, thus it was obtained the fracture surfaces for characterization under monofractal and multifractal approaches. In front of all the exposed it was possible to conclude that in all measurements the correlation between the crack tip position and the fractal dimension was established in accordance with changes in the thickness and in the fracture micromechanisms presents. Furthermore, the multifractal approach was more sensitive to these variations allowing a more detailed characterization of the morphology

Técnicas de caracterização microestrutural, por microscopia óptica e microscopia eletrônica de varredura, de aços bifásicos e multifásicos aplicados à indústria automobilística

This project developed microstructural characterization technics of commercial dualphase and multi-phasic (TRIP) steels that were provided by the automotive industry and are currently used as the raw material for the production of automobiles. Inserted in this context, there is the development of the advanced high strength steels in consonance with the ULSABAVC project, which aims the production of safe, economically viable and efficient in terms of fuel consumption vehicles for the 21st century. The micro-structural characterization of biphasic and multiphase steels was done by the identification and quantification of the coexistent phases. In this item, a special attention was given to the technics that were performed using optic microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. An important contribution to this work was the utilization of different alternative chemical reagents (Beraha, Heat-Tinting technics) in addition to the classical ones (Nital and LePera)already used conventionally by the UNESP's Group of Mechanical, Microstructural and Fractografic Characterization of Materials. The revealed microstructures were correlated with the materials' mechanical properties determined through traction tests, such as ultimate tensile strengths, yield strength and stretching important since the material has structural application in the automotive industry. As a result, it was observed the superiority concerning the studied mechanical properties for the biphasic and multiphasic steels when compared to the conventional carbon steels. Besides, it was perceived a large potential for the industrial scale utilization of the Heat Tinting technics in this field, seen its differentiation of the existent phases and easy reproducibility
