Estudo da viabilidade técnica para obtenção de superfície duplex em aço inoxidável martensítico AISI 410 através do processo de deposição a plasma por gaiola catódica

The technique of plasma nitriding by the cathode cage mainly stands out for its ability to produce uniform layers, even on parts with complex geometries. In this study, it was investigated the efficiency of this technique for obtaining duplex surface, when used, simultaneously, to nitriding treatment and thin film deposition at temperatures below 500°C. For this, were used samples of AISI 41 0 Martensitic Stainless Steel and performed plasma treatment, combining nitriding and deposition of thin films of Ti and/or TiN in a plasma atmosphere containing N2-H2. It was used a cathodic cage of titanium pure grade II, cylindrical with 70 mm diameter and 34 mm height. Samples were treated at temperature 420ºC for 2 and 12 hours in different working pressures. Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with micro-analysis by Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and analysis of Vickers Microhardness were used to investigate coating properties such as homogeneity and surface topography, chemical composition, layer thickness, crystalline phase, roughness and surface microhardness. The results showed there is a direct proportionality between the presence of H2 in plasma atmosphere and the quantity of titanium in surface chemical composition. It was also observed that the plasma treatment at lowpressure is more effective in formation of TiN thin film

Estudo de Matérias-Primas do Rio Grande do Norte para Uso em Revestimento Poroso: Influência do teor de dolomita e temperatura de calcinação nas propriedades físico-mecânicas

The state of Rio Grande do Norte presents a great potentiality for the production of ceramic tiles because of having natural raw material in quantity and quality making its economical exploration possible, beyond the great energetic differential of the state, the natural gás. This works aims to study the influence of the dolomite and granulometry concentration and calcinations temperature in the obtaining of formulations for porous coverings which have to be coherent to the project,s specifications. The experiments have involved the physical-chemical and mineralogical characterizations of raw materials and mechanical tests in the dry and burnt proof bodies preceding a mixture experiment planning with the use of the response surface methodology, in order to get the best raw materials combinations to produce a ceramic mass with specific properties. The twelve ceramic masses studied in this work were prepared by the via dry process, characterized, shaped by uniaxial pressing and sinterized in the temperatures of 940ºC, 1000ºC, 1060ºC, 1120ºC and 1180ºC, using a fast burning cycle. The crystalline phases formed during the sintering in the temperatures in study have revealed the presence of anorthite and diopside beyond quartz with a remaining phase. These phases were the main responsible ones by the physical- mechanical properties of the sinterized proof bodies. The proof bodies after the sintering stage have presented water absorption higher than 10% and a good dimensional stability in all studied temperatures. However, the flexural breaking strength results in the temperatures of 940ºC, 1000ºC and 1060ºC, under the temperature zone of the vitrification of ceramic whiteware do not reach the flexural breaking strength specific for the porous wall tile (15 MPa), but in the temperature of 1120ºC next to the vitrification temperature zone, some whiteware ceramic (formulations) has reached the specified value for the porous wall tile. The results of this work have showed that the studied raw materials have great importance for used in the production of porous wall tiles (BIII)

Efeito do revestimento nas propriedades das rolhas de cortiça

A utilização de revestimentos poliméricos em rolhas de cortiça natural é uma prática recorrente na indústria de produção de rolhas. A sua aplicação tem como principal objetivo a melhoria da qualidade visual das rolhas. Contudo, este tratamento altera também as suas caraterísticas de molhabilidade, pelo que é importante otimizar os processos de revestimento de superfície. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo principal a averiguação da influência de um revestimento colorido e de diferentes tratamentos de superfície no comportamento da rolha em garrafa. Foram utilizadas amostras, cedidas pela Cork Supply Portugal, provenientes de quatro branqueamentos distintos (LVL, CSP, CPI e SIL). Foram estudadas amostras com e sem revestimento colorido e, todas elas, tratadas superficialmente com quatro tipos de tratamento (TS1, TS2, TS3 e TS4), sendo as quantidades de parafina e silicone administradas todas diferentes. Para observar o efeito do revestimento colorido e dos tratamentos de superfície nas rolhas de cortiça, procedeu-se a testes para determinação de capilaridade, inserções e forças de extração, simulando as condições de engarrafamento/extração do cliente, de forma a verificar a conformidade dos resultados. Todos estes testes procederam-se nas instalações da CSP. Foram também efetuados testes de molhabilidade pela determinação de ângulos de contacto para três diferentes solventes, nomeadamente água, formamida e diiodometano, e obtidos os Wetting Envelopes, pelo método de OWRK, de forma a prever a molhabilidade das várias amostras. Os procedimentos experimentais descritos efetuaram-se nos laboratórios da Universidade de Aveiro. Aliando as análises aos vários testes efetuados, concluiu-se que o revestimento colorido tem um possível efeito favorecedor nas propriedades mecânicas das rolhas de cortiça, possui maior recetividade aos agentes lubrificantes e maior molhabilidade. Relativamente aos tratamentos de superfície, o melhor, tendo em conta os fatores de molhabilidade, foi o TS4, proporcionando melhor vedação ao vinho. Já a respeito da lubrificação, verificou-se melhores resultados para os tratamentos TS1 e TS2. A lavação SIL apresenta menor afinidade aos agentes vedantes e a CSP possui maior recetibilidade aos agentes lubrificantes.

Estudo das propriedades de revestimentos compósitos de níquel com Al2O3 e SiC

Neste trabalho foi avaliada a resistência à corrosão dos revestimentos compósitos de níquel, obtidos a partir de um banho de níquel químico (electroless) e um banho de níquel eletrolítico tipo Watts (com e sem tensoativo), caracterizando-os comparativamente em relação ao revestimento de níquel sem partículas. Os métodos utilizados para avaliação da resistência a corrosão foram: ensaio acelerado em névoa salina, voltametria cíclica, curva de polarização potenciodinâmica (em NaCl 0,6N) e dissolução anódica à corrente constante. Os revestimentos também foram avaliados com relação à resistência ao desgaste, rugosidade, e morfologia da camada. As partículas foram caracterizadas por difração de raio- X , dispersão granulométrica e potencial zeta. Nas condições estudadas os resultados mostraram que o revestimento compósito Ni-P-Al2O3 (Al2O3 - tamanho de grão ≅ 0,1 a 1,8µm) apresentou melhor resistência à corrosão que o revestimento de níquel químico sem incorporação de partículas (Ni-P) que por sua vez, apresentou resistência a corrosão superior ao compósito Ni-P-SiC no. 23 (SiC no. 23 - tamanho de grão ≅0,8 a 19,9µm). Já o eletrodepósito de níquel sem incorporação de partículas apresentou melhor resistência à corrosão que os revestimentos compósitos. Entre estes o compósito Ni-Al2O3 apresentou resistência a corrosão superior ao compósito Ni-SiC no. 23 A adição do tensoativo lauril sulfato de sódio reduz a quantidade de partículas incorporadas no eletrodepósito, sendo este efeito mais acentuado para o SiC com maior granulometria. Para diferentes granulometrias de carbeto de silício (SiC no. 2 - tamanho de grão ≅0,3 a 6,2µm e SiC no. 23 - tamanho de grão ≅0,8 a 19,9µm), o revestimento compósito obtido com o SiC que possui menor granulometria, apresentou maior resistência à corrosão e maior resistência ao desgaste, indicando desta forma que o tamanho da partícula incorporada no depósito de níquel exerce grande influência sobre a resistência à corrosão do revestimento, bem como sobre a resistência ao desgaste.

Formulação e caracterização de matérias-primas para revestimento cerâmico Semi-Poroso com adição de chamote de telhas

The ceramics industry in Piauí is nowadays with 55 industries where 11 are in Teresina which is the mainstream of the state, producing 55 million shingles; in which 10 % is of this production is wasted being sometimes thrown on the margins of rivers, roads and highways provoking an environmental degradation. The main goal of this work is to verify the potential of producing semi porous ceramic using grog of shingles, on the first part of this work bodies-of-proof were produced from a basic formula of an industry, doping it with 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % in mass and in the second part of this work some bodies-of-proof were produced from a formula where one raw material was substituted by 50 % of grog and another substituting it all by grog, bodies-of-proof made of a basic formula previously announced was used for experiment control.The grog and the raw materials were characterized by: particle size analysis , thermal differential analysis, X ray diffraction , X ray fluorescence, an thermal gravimetric analysis and rational analyses. The bodies-of-proof were sintetisized in an industrial oven obeying the normal cycle adopted by an industry, with peak temperatures of 1135 oC and a fast burning cycle of 25 minutes having as energetic fuel liquefied petroleum gas . The pieces that were obtained by this were submersed in rehearsed physics of: water absorption of, apparent specific mass, apparent porosity, lineal retraction, rupture tension to the flexural and dilatometry; mineralogical analysis for X ray diffraction; and microstructural for electronic microscope of sweeping. For all the formulas with addition of grog, superior priorities to the requested by the requirements for semi porous and for the formula to F2-2,5 superior priorities to standard formulas which justifies the incorporation of the shingles in mass for the semi porous ceramic

Avaliação da potencialidade dos resíduos de gesso de revestimento incorporados em formulações de massas cerâmicas

In building, during the implementation process of major or even minor works, there is a considerable waste of plaster in the steps of coating, making it is a negative factor because of the loss of these processes constructive remains incorporated into buildings, as component, whose final dimensions are higher than those projected. Another negative factor is the disposal of waste gypsum in inappropriate places, thus contributing to the degradation of environmental quality, due to the leaching of this waste and may trigger the formation of sulfuric acid. Therefore, based on this picture, processing and reuse of waste coating, combined with the ceramics industry, which is a strong potential in the reuse of certain types of waste, promote mutual benefits. Thus the overall objective of this work is to conduct a search with scientific and technological aspects, to determine the effect of the incorporation of the residue of plaster for coating, from the building, the formulation of bodies for red ceramic. The residue of plaster coating was collected and characterized. They were also selected raw materials of two ceramic poles of the state of Rio Grande do Norte and formulations have been made with the intention of obtaining those with the best physical and mechanical properties, the residue was added the percentage of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%, in the best formulation of ceramic industry 1 and, according the properties analyses, 5%, 10% and 15% as the best results of ceramic industry 2. The samples were sintered at temperatures of 850 ºC, 950 °C and 1050 °C, the heating rate of 5 ºC / min with isotherm of two hours. They were submitted to testing technology, such as lineal shrinkage, water absorption, apparent porosity, apparent density and bending resistence. The residue incorporation best results in the formulations of mass in red ceramic, were observed between the temperatures of 850 ºC and 950 ºC, in those formulations that have illite clays and medium plastic in their composition, in the range of 0% to 15% residue incorporated

Influência da adição de cálcio nas propriedades de pastas geopoliméricas destinadas a cimentação de poços de petróleo

Nowadays, the search for new technologies that are able to follow the upcoming challenges in oil industry is a constant. Always trying properties improvements of the used materials, looking for the best performance and greater life time. Besides the search for technologies that show an improvement of performance, the search for materials environmentally correct along the whole production process. In Oil well cementing, this search for new technologies passes through the development of slurry systems that support these requests and that are also environmentally friendly. In this context, the use of geopolymer slurries is a great alternative route to cementing oil wells. Besides having good properties, comparable to Portland cement slurries, this alternative material releases much less CO2 gas in the production of their root materials when compared the production of Portland cement, which releases tons of CO2. In order to improve the properties of geopolymer slurries has been added Calcium Oxide, as observed in other studies that slurries where the Calcium is present the values of compressive strength is greater. The addition has been realized based in the CaO/SiO2 molar ratio of 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15. Have been performed compressive strength tests, thickening time, rheology and fliud loss control test of the slurries, following NBR 9831, as well as the physical chemical characterization of XRD, SEM and TG. Has been observed in most of the tests the slurries follow a tendency until the ratio of 0.10, which inverses in the ratio 0.15. This behavior can be explained by two phenomena that occur simultaneously, the first one is the break of the polymer chains and a consequent increase in molucules mobility, which prevails until the ratio of 0.1, and the second is possible approach of the chains due to the capacity of the calcium ions stabilize the charges of two different aluminum. There is only one linearity in the mechanical behavior that can be attributed to the appereance of the C-S-H phase. Based on this, it is concluded that the phenomenon of breaking the polymer chains predominates until the ratio of 0.1, causing an increase of the filtrate volume, lower rheological parameters and increasing thickening time. From the ratio of 0.15 the approach of the chains predominates, and the behavior is reversed
