Estudo da influência das resinas poliéster isoftálica e ortoftálica e do teor de cinza volante nas propriedades mecânicas e durabilidade do concreto polímero

Os compostos de concreto polímero vem se tornando, em países desenvolvidos, uma boa opção para a construção civil, especialmente onde se necessita resistência elevada, cura rápida e boa durabilidade. Grande parte destes compostos são produzidos com as resinas epóxi e poliéster, em especial, a isoftálica. No Brasil, entretanto, não se tem conhecimento da aplicação e nem mesmo de grupos de pesquisa e desenvolvimento sistematizados, atuando na área, possivelmente devido ao desconhecimento das propriedades, da metodologia de produção e do alto custo do concreto polímero. Diante deste panorama, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo produzir e analisar composições de concreto polímero de custos reduzidos, utilizando como aglomerante a resina poliéster ortoftálica, em função de seu custo, e a resina poliéster isoftálica, que tem sido tradicionalmente utilizada. Inicialmente foram determinadas a resistência à compressão axial e absorção de água em composições de concreto polímero, com variados teores de resina, visando a escolha de um teor de aglomerante mínimo. Na segunda parte do programa experimental foi analisada a influência do teor de cinza volante (fíler) e do tipo de resina na resistência à compressão axial, na resistência à tração na flexão, no comportamento frente ao ataque químico, no módulo de elasticidade e no desgaste por abrasão. A microestrutura das amostras que sofreram ataque químico foi analisada em microscópio eletrônico de varredura. Os resultados mostraram que os concretos polímeros de resina poliéster isoftálica e ortoftálica exibiram bom comportamento mecânico e químico. A cinza volante contribui tanto no aspecto mecânico, quanto no químico. Constatou-se que a resina ortoftálica, quando utilizada simultaneamente com areia e cinza volante, exibe comportamento semelhante à resina isoftálica no concreto polímero, apesar das propriedades da resina poliéster ortoftálica serem inferiores as da isoftálica.

Fabricação e caracterização de material compósito de resina poliéster reforçada por tecido de fibra de tururi extraído da palmeira de ubuçu (Manicaria saccifera)

Neste trabalho é apresentada a fabricação e caracterização de um material compósito de matriz polimérica reforçada por fibras naturais. A matriz é um poliéster teraftélica insaturada préacelerada obtida comercialmente como Denverpoly 754 e o agente de cura utilizado foi o peróxido de Mek (Butanox M- 50), na proporção de 0,33 % , em volume. A fibra natural usada foi o tururi, obtida da região do Marajó, município de Muaná. O tecido de fibra de tururi foi submetido a dois tipos de abertura no sentido transversal, de [50 e 100]%, em relação a uma largura original. A fabricação do material compósito foi através do método da laminação manual (hand lay up), seguido de uma pressão controlada através de pesos previamente quantificados. Características físicas, mecânicas e microscópicas foram obtidas para a fibra e o material compósito, obtendo-se resistência a tração, massa específica, gramatura do tecido, fração mássica e imagens microscópicas antes e depois do ensaio de tração para o tecido da fibra e ensaio de tração depois do ensaio de tração para o material compósito. O tecido de tururi apresentou resistência a tração de 29,95 MPa (sem abertura), 12,27 MPa (abertura de 50 %) e 9,38 MPa (abertura de 100 %). A abertura provoca a diminuição da resistência à tração do tecido de tururi. A gramatura do tecido diminuiu com a abertura do tecido. A fração mássica do tecido do compósito foi de 14,39 % (sem abertura), 9,35 % (abertura de 50 %) e 7,19 % (abertura de 100 %). A resistência a tração do compósito foi de 35,76 MPa (sem abertura), 19,01 MPa (50 % de abertura) e 16,8 MPa (100 % de abertura). A resistência mecânica apresentou valores aproximados aos encontrados na literatura para materiais compósitos reforçados por fibras naturais. As imagens obtidas em microscopia eletrônica de varredura corroboraram com as propriedades mecânicas obtidas para cada situação do material e fibras.

Obtenção e caracterização de um compósito polimérico de matriz poliéster e reforço/carga de tecido plano de algodão

He was obtained and studied the feasibility of using TPA (Tissue Cotton Plan) screen type, for bagging, with a weight of 207.9 g / m2 in a composite of orthophthalic crystal polyester resin matrix. The process for obtaining the composite was tested against the maximum number of layers that could be used without compromising the processability and manufacturing of CPs in compression mold. Five configurations / formulations were selected and tested at 1, 4, 8, 10 and 12 layers of cotton tissue - TPA. TPA was not subjected to chemical treatment, only by passing a mechanical washing process. The composite in its various configurations / formulations was characterized to determine its physical properties. The properties of the composite were higher viability resistance to bending, approaching the matrix and impact resistance, superiority in relation to the polyester resin. Another property that has shown good result compared to other composite has water absorption. Analyzing all the properties set the settings / formulations with higher viability were TA8 and TA10, by combining good processability and higher mechanical strength, with lower loss compared to polyester resin matrix. The composite showed lower mechanical behavior of the resin matrix for all the formulations studied except the impact resistance. The SEM showed a good adhesion between the layers of TPA and polyester resin matrix, without the presence of micro voids in the matrix confirming the efficient manufacturing process of the samples for characterization. The composite proposed proved to be viable for the fabrication of structures with low requests from mechanical stresses, and as demonstrated for the manufacture of solar and wind prototypes, and packaging, shelving, decorative items, crafts and shelves, with good visual appearance.

Influência da umidade nas propriedades mecânicas dos compósitos poliméricos híbridos (sisal/ vidro)

This study aims to evaluate the mechanical properties of polymer matrix composites reinforced with sisal fabric bidirectional tissue (Agave sisalana,) and E-glass fibers, containing the following configuration: a polymer matrix hybrid composite (Polyester Resin orthophalic) reinforced with three (3) layers of glass fibers and alternating-2 (two) layers of bidirectional sisal fabric, and finally a composite of polymer matrix reinforced with five (5) layers of glass fiber mat-type E. For this purpose as first step, the preparation of by sisal, since they are not on the market. The composites were made by manual lamination (Hand lay-up) and evaluated for tensile properties and three point bending both in the dry, and wet conditions aswele as immersed in oil. Macroscopic and microscopic characteristics of the materialsweve awalysed, after the completion of the mechanical tests. After the studies, it was proven that the sisal fiber decreases the tensile stiffness of the material above 50% for both situations studied the tensile strength of the material decreases by approximately 40% for the cases mentioned, and when compared to the specific strength stiffness values drop to 14.6% and 29.02% respectively for the dry state only. Constants for bending the values were are to approximately 50% to 25% for strength and stiffness of the material for the cases dry, wet and immersed in oil. Under the influence of tension fluids do not interfere in the stiffness of the material for the bending tests, the same does not occur with the resistance, and these values are modified only in the cases stiffness and flexural strength

Tubulações de PRFV com adição de areia quartzosa visando sua aplicação na indústria do petróleo

Fillers are often added in composites to enhance performance and/or to reduce cost. Fiberglass pipes must meet performance requirements and industrial sand is frequently added for the pipe to be cost competitive. The sand is added to increase pipe wall thickness, thus increase pipe stiffness. The main goal of the present work is to conduct an experimental investigation between pipes fabricated with and without de addition of sand, to be used in the petroleum industry. Pipes were built using E-glass fibers, polyester resin and siliceous sand. The fabrication process used hand lay up and filament winding and was divided in two different parts: the liner and the structural wall. All tested pipes had the same liner, but different structural wall composition, which is the layer where siliceous sand may be added or not. The comparative investigation was developed considering the results of longitudinal tensile tests, hoop tensile tests, hydrostatic pressure leak tests and parallel-plate loading stiffness tests. SEM was used to analyze if the sand caused any damage to the glass fibers, during the fabrication process, because of the fiber-sand contact. The procedure was also used to verify the composite conditions after the hydrostatic pressure leak test. The results proved that the addition of siliceous sand reduced the leak pressure in about 17 %. In the other hand, this loss in pressure was compensated by a stiffness increment of more than 380 %. MEV analyses show that it is possible to find damage on the fiber-sand contact, but on a very small amount. On most cases, the contact occurs without damage evidences. In summary, the addition of sand filler represented a 27.8 % of cost reduction, when compared to a pipe designed with glass fiber and resin only. This cost reduction combined to the good mechanical tests results make siliceous sand filler suitable for fiberglass pressure pipes

Desempenho mecânico de compósitos híbridos de fibras naturais e poliéster não saturado

With the objective to promote sustainable development, the fibres found in nature in abundance, which are biodegradable, of low cost in comparison to synthetic fibres are being used in the manufacture of composites. The mechanical behavior of the curauá and pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) composites in different proportions, 25% x 75% (P1), 50% x 50% (P2) e 75% x 25% (P3) were respectively studied, being initially treated with a 2% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. Mechanical analyses indicated that with respect to studies of traction, for the combination of P1 and P3, better results of 22.17 MPa and 16.98 MPa, were obtained respectively, which are higher than that of the combination P2. The results of the same pattern were obtained for analysis of bending resistance where P1 is 1.21% and P3 represents 0.96%. In the case of resistance to bending, best results were obtained for the combination P1 at 49.07 MPa. However, when Young's modulus values were calculated, the values were different to the pattern of the results of other tests, where the combination P2 with the value of 4.06 GPa is greater than the other combinations. This shows that the PALF had a greater influence in relation to curauá fibre. The analysis of the results generally shows that in combinations of two vegetable fibers of cellulosic origin, the fiber which shows higher percentage (75%) is the best option than to the composition of 50%/50%. In the meantime, according to the results obtained in this study, in the case where the application should withstand bending loads, the better composition would be 50%/50%

Desenvolvimento e análise de material compósito a base de penas de frango (fibras de queratina-KF) e matriz de poliéster insaturado

Use of natural fibres as a reinforcement material in the manufacture of composites show a series of advantages: availability, biodegradability, low weight and regeneration in relation to synthetic fibres, thus justifying its utilization. In the present research work, composites were developed with chicken feathers (KF), using unsaturated polyester resin as matrix, for diversified applications, mainly in the furniture/timber industry.At present, in Brazil the chicken feathers are used as part of the animal feed, even though this material possesses low aggregated value. The chicken feathers are hollow, light and resistant. After washing with water at room temperature, a part of the chicken feathers were treated with 2% NaOH. Composites were manufactured using treated and untreated chicken feathers with unsaturated orthothalic polyester resin and 1% peroxide as catalyser, obtained in the commerce. Samples with size 150x25x3 mm for mechanical tests were cut by laser in the composite plate. Mechanical analyses were carried out in the Laboratório de Metais e Ensaios Mecânicos UFRN. All the analyses were in accordance with ASTM standards. SEM analyses were also carried out on the samples.In the analyses of the results obtained, it was observed that the composites made with untreated chicken feathers showed better results (Traction 11.406 MPa and 9.107 MPa Bending 34.947 and 20.918 MPa for samples with and without treatment respectively) compared to the composite with treated feathers. Very low values of the water absorption results, evidenced the impermeability characteristic of the feathers. From the SEM images, the structure, fracture and the fibre/matrix adsorption can be evidenced. In the flammability test, it was observed that despite the feathers having sulfur as a constituent, natural inhibitor of flame, no burning support of the composites, because the manufacturing process of the composite
