The vegetable fibers as reinforcement for polymer matrixes, has been used as an alternative to replace synthetic fibres, being biodegradable and of low cost. The present work aims to develop a composite material with epoxy resin reinforced with curau? fibre with the addition of alumina trihydrate (aluminum hydroxide, Al(OH)3) as a flame retardant, which was used in proportions of 10 %, 20% and 30% of the total volume of the composite. The curau? fibers have gone through a cleaning process with an alkaline bath of sodium hydroxide (NaOH ), parallelized by hand and cut carding according to the default length . They were molded composites with fibers 30cm. Composites were molded in a Lossy Mold with unidirectional fibres in the proportion of 20% of the total volume of the composite. The composites were prepared in the Chemical Processing Laboratory of the Textile Engineering Department at UFRN. To measure the performance of the material, tests for the resistance to traction and flexion were carried out. with samples that were later analyzed in the Electronic Microscopy Apparatus (SEM ). The composites showed good mechanical properties by the addition of flame retardant and in some cases, leaving the composite more vulnerable to breakage. These mechanical results were analyzed by chi-square statistical test at the 5% significance level to check for possible differences between the composite groups. Flammability testing was conducted based on the standard Underwriters Laboratory 94 and the material showed a satisfactory result taking their average burn rate (mm / min) decreasing with increasing addition of the flame retardant composite.

A fabrica??o de comp?sitos refor?ados com fibras vegetais e matriz polim?rica, tem sido uma alternativa para as ind?strias que buscam o aproveitamento de res?duos. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi desenvolver um comp?sito polim?rico com rejeito de polietileno como matriz e carga do p? da casca da semente da planta Sombreiro (Clitoria fairchildiana) nas propor??es de 2,5% e 5%, mostrando que pol?meros p?s consumo podem ser novamente aproveitados.

The manufacture of composites reinforced with natural fibers and polymer matrix, has been an alternative for industries seeking the recovery of waste. The aim of this study was to develop a polymeric composite tailings as polyethylene matrix and load powder seed bark Sombreiro plant (Clitoria fairchildiana) in the proportions of 2.5% and 5%, showing that post-consumer polymers can be again used. Mixtures polymer / load were produced through an extruder, and then the samples were injection molded. To characterize the composite were performed thermal analysis, measurement of flow rate, density determination, hardness testing Shore D, tensile strength, Izod impact strength, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and water absorption. For the rheological results, the viscosity of the composite PE_rec (polyethylene with addition of 2.5% load) has decreased since the PE_rec B (Polyethylene with addition of 5% load) has increased. The bulk density was kept constant for all samples and concentrations. As expected the hardness of the composite was proportional to the load percentage that has been added since the maximum tensile strength the PE_rec The composite obtained a 2.3% lower compared to PE_rec Pure, the Izod impact test showed that the composite PE_rec The presented 444.30 J/m energy absorbed during the test. In the analysis by SEM were observed the presence of voids in the microstructure of the material and the lack of adhesion matrix / load in some regions of the polymer composite. The water absorption test showed that for both natural load concentrations powder proved not very hydrophilic. Thus the results showed that the recycled polyethylene can be processed again and the composite load increase promoted a gain of synthetic material economy.

Embora o pa?s consiga reciclar mais da metade da produ??o de PET, ainda ? muito elevado o volume deste material em forma de garrafas. Salienta-se que, apesar do benef?cio da resina PET poder ser utilizada em in?meras aplica??es e sob diversos processos, ? necess?rio desenvolver alternativas de seu reuso na via de reciclagem. Nesta vertente, o objetivo da pesquisa foi avaliar a aplica??o do tecido de pet, oriundo do processo de reciclagem das garrafas, como refor?o de comp?sitos polim?ricos. Para tanto, na metodologia utilizada, ap?s a preliminar caracteriza??o do tecido de pet via ensaios t?xteis (Determina??o de gramatura; Resist?ncia ? propaga??o ao rasgo; Resist?ncia ? tra??o e alongamento), confeccionou-se laminados comp?sitos polim?ricos com matriz ep?xi e diferentes fra??es de tecido para a verifica??o e an?lise de suas principais propriedades f?sico-qu?micas, mec?nicas e t?rmicas. Os seguintes ensaios foram realizados nos corpos de prova de resina e laminado comp?sito: Densidade; Absor??o de ?gua; Teor de umidade; Tra??o uniaxial; Flex?o em tr?s pontos; Compress?o; Dureza; TG; DMA e An?lise de fratura. A an?lise dos resultados evidenciou que o incremento de camadas de tecido propicia ao comp?sito o aumento nas resist?ncias ? tra??o e ? compress?o; al?m do que, eleva a rigidez viscoel?stica do material, ao passo que diminui a resist?ncia ? flex?o. Observou-se tamb?m que as camadas de tecido de PET diminuem o teor de umidade do comp?sito, bem como a sua capacidade de absor??o de ?gua. Contudo, as propriedades Dureza e Densidade n?o apresentaram varia??o significativa com a inclus?o do tecido de PET. A configura??o P90, com o m?ximo teor de tecido de PET no laminado, exprimiu-se como a de melhor desempenho frente aos ensaios realizados. Deste modo, a utiliza??o do tecido PET evidencia aspectos atraentes para as iniciativas empresariais do setor. A composi??o P90, como refor?o de comp?sito polim?rico, foi a que apresentou melhor resultado. Esse material tr?s reflexos socio-econ?micos diretamente relacionados com a melhoria da qualidade de vida da popula??o, gera??o de renda, economia de recursos naturais e atenua??o de problemas ambientais. / There is no doubt whatsoever that the widest consumption of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle grade is a unique chapter among the resins produced in Brazil. Although the country is able to recycle more than a half of all PET production, the number of such material for bottle fabrication is still very high. It is important to remark that, though all benefits of PET resin uses in uncountable applications and under many processes; alternatives to its reuse throughout recycling dynamics must be developed. Thus, this work aims at evaluating the application of PET fabric coming from the process of bottle recycling polymeric composite reinforcements. In order to do so, after a preliminary characterization of the PET fabric by textile tests (Grammage determination; Tear propagation resistance; Tensile strength and elongation resistance), laminated polymeric composite with epoxy matrix as well as different fractions of fabric for checking and analysis of their main physicochemical, mechanical and thermal properties were engendered. The following tests were performed with the resin and with laminated composite: Density, Water absorption; Moisture content; Uniaxial tensile; Three point flexural test; Compression; Hardness; TG; DMA and Fracture analysis. By analyzing the results, it was noticed that the increase of fabric layers provide a resistance and compression gain to the composite, and it also increases the material viscoelastic stiffness, at the same time as its flexural strength is diminish. It was also noticed that its water absorption capacity was diminished. Nevertheless, its hardness and density properties did not present meaningful variation with the PET addition. The P90 setting with the highest content of PET fabric in the laminate presented itself as having the best results in the tests. Therefore the use of PET fabric presents attracting aspects to entrepreneurship. P90 configuration used as polymeric composite reinforcements were the one to present the best results. Such material brings socio-economical reflexions directly linked to the improvement of livelihood, natural resources economy and offset environment problems.

The residue produced was processed to obtain powders. Several composite formulations were tested by varying the load percentage relative to polyester, crystal or dark renin. All formulations chosen, 50% RPM, 100% RPM, 150% RPM, 200% RPM and 250% RPM presented feasibility of processing and obtaining the composite. The marble powder and composites produced were characterized for the determination of physical, mechanical and thermal properties. The results of the characterization of the composite formulations showed that the marble powder was present in the composite as a filler. The property in which the composite presented better results than the matrix resin was the impact strength. Analyzing the processability all the formulations of the composite were feasible, for the two resins studied. The composite has proven to be feasible for the manufacture of tables, chairs, planks, works of art, parts for bathrooms, partitions for environments, structures that do not require resistance to great efforts. An important advantage of the composite studied is the decrease in the amount of resin to be used, since the residue powder load can reach 250% in relation to the matrix, reducing the cost of the material obtained for the manufacture of various structures. The polymer composite proved to be feasible to replace natural marble and granite stones.

However, when working with polymer composite materials, this is something that requires analysis, especially when exposed to adverse environmental conditions. Thus, the objective of the present thesis is the study of the direct influence of environmental aging and the form of hybridization of the reinforcement woven on the structural stability, surfacedegradation and fracture process of polymer composites laminates. For this, the development of two polymer composite laminates was necessary, where one of them was reinforced with a bi-directional woven with hybrid strandsofkevlar-49/glass-Efibers, and the other also with a bi-directionalwoven, however with weft and warpformed of alternating strandsof Kevlar-49 fibers and glass-E fiber The reinforcementwoven are industrially manufactured. Both laminates use a polyester resin as a matrixand are made up of four layers each. All laminates were industrially prepared by the hand lay-up method of manufacturing. To do this, test specimens were manufactured of the respective laminates and submitted to environmental aging accelerated through the aging chamber. They were exposed to alternating cycles of UV radiation and moisture (heated steam) for a standard defined period. At the end of the exposure period the specimens were subjected to mechanical tests of uniaxial tensile and bending in three points and to the characterizationsof the fracture and surface deterioration. In addition, they were submitted to a structural degradation assessment by the measurement of mass variation technique (MMVT) and the measurement of thickness variation technique (MTVT), this last technique being developed in this thesis.

However, challenges have arisen when their application occurs in equipment and mechanical structures which will be exposed to harsh environmental conditions, especially when there is the influence of environmental degradation due to temperature, UV radiation and moisture in the mechanical performance of these structures, causing irreversible structural damage such as loss of dimensional stability, interfacial degradation, loss of mass, loss of structural properties and changes in the damage mechanism. In this context, the objective of this thesis is the development of a process for monitoring and modeling structural degradation, and the study of the physical and mechanical properties in FRP when in the presence of adverse environmental conditions (ageing). The mechanism of ageing is characterized by controlled environmental conditions of heated steam and ultraviolet radiation. For the research, it was necessary to develop three polymer composites. The first was a lamina of polyester resin reinforced with a short glass-E fiber mat (representing the layer exposed to ageing), and the other two were laminates, both of seven layers of reinforcement, one being made up only of short fibers of glass-E, and the other a hybrid type reinforced with fibers of glass-E/ fibers of curaua. It should be noted that the two laminates have the lamina of short glass-E fibers as a layer of the ageing process incidence. The specimens were removed from the composites mentioned and submitted to environmental ageing accelerated by an ageing chamber. To study the monitoring and modeling of degradation, the ageing cycles to which the lamina was exposed were: alternating cycles of UV radiation and heated steam, a cycle only of UV radiation and a cycle only of heated steam, for a period defined by norm. The laminates have already undergone only the alternating cycle of UV and heated steam. At the end of the exposure period the specimens were subjected to a structural stability assessment by means of the developed measurement of thickness variation technique (MTVT) and the measurement of mass variation technique (MMVT). Then they were subjected to the mechanical tests of uniaxial tension for the lamina and all the laminates, besides the bending test on three points for the laminates. This study was followed by characterization of the fracture and the surface degradation. Finally, a model was developed for the composites called Ageing Zone Diagram (AZD) for monitoring and predicting the tensile strength after the ageing processes. From the results it was observed that the process of degradation occurs Abstract Raimundo Nonato Barbosa Felipe xiv differently for each composite studied, although all were affected in certain way and that the most aggressive ageing process was that of UV radiation, and that the hybrid laminated fibers of glass-E/curaua composite was most affected in its mechanical properties / A aplica??o dos materiais comp?sitos e em particular os pl?sticos refor?ados por fibras (PRF) tem conquistado espa?o, gradativamente, dos materiais ditos convencionais, por?m desafios t?m sido colocados quando sua aplica??o ocorre em equipamentos e estruturas mec?nicas que ficar?o expostos a condi??es ambientais adversas, principalmente quando se tem a influ?ncia da degrada??o ambiental do tipo temperatura, radia??o UV e umidade, no desempenho mec?nico dessas estruturas, ocasionando danos estruturais irrevers?veis tais como: perda de estabilidade dimensional, degrada??o interfacial, perda de massa, perda das propriedades estruturais e altera??es no mecanismo de dano. Neste contexto a presente tese tem como objetivo o desenvolvimento de um processo de monitoramento e modelagem da degrada??o estrutural, e o estudo das propriedades f?sicas e mec?nicas, em PRF quando em presen?a de condi??es ambientais adversas (envelhecimento). O mecanismo de envelhecimento ? caracterizado por condi??es ambientais controladas de vapor aquecido e de radia??o ultravioleta. Para a pesquisa foi desenvolvido tr?s comp?sitos polim?ricos, o primeiro uma l?mina de resina poli?ster refor?ado com manta de fibras curtas de vidro-E (representando a camada exposta ao envelhecimento) e dois laminados, ambos de sete camadas de refor?o, sendo um constitu?do s? com manta de fibras curtas de vidro-E, e o outro do tipo h?brido refor?ado com fibras de vidro-E/fibras de curau?. Ressalta-se que os dois laminados t?m a l?mina de fibras curtas de vidro-E como camada de incid?ncia do processo de envelhecimento. Os corpos de provas (CP s) foram retirados dos comp?sitos citados e submetidos ao envelhecimento ambiental acelerado atrav?s da c?mara de envelhecimento. Para o estudo do monitoramento e modelagem da degrada??o, os ciclos de envelhecimento a que foram expostos ? l?mina foram: ciclos alternados de radia??o UV e vapor aquecido, ciclo somente de radia??o UV e o ciclo somente de vapor aquecido, por um per?odo definido em norma. J? os laminados foram submetidos a apenas ao ciclo alternado de UV e vapor aquecido. Ao t?rmino do per?odo de exposi??o os CP s foram submetidos ? avalia??o da estabilidade estrutural mediante a t?cnica desenvolvida de medi??o de varia??o de espessura (TMVE) e a t?cnica de media??o de varia??o de massa (TMVM). Em seguida os mesmos foram submetidos aos ensaios mec?nicos de tra??o uniaxial para a l?mina e todos os laminados, al?m do ensaio de flex?o em tr?s pontos para os laminados. Esse estudo foi seguido da caracteriza??o da fratura e da degrada??o superficial. Por fim, foi desenvolvido um modelo para os Resumo Raimundo Nonato Barbosa Felipe xii comp?sitos denominado de Diagrama da Zona de Envelhecimento (DZE) para o monitoramento e predi??o da resist?ncia mec?nica ? tra??o ap?s os processos de envelhecimento. Ao t?rmino das an?lises foi observado que o processo de degrada??o se d? de forma diferente para cada comp?sito pesquisado, no entanto todos foram afetados, o processo de envelhecimento mais agressivo foi o de radia??o UV, e que o comp?sito que foi mais afetado em suas propriedades mec?nicas foi o laminado h?brido de fibras de vidro-E/curau?

Esses impactos podem provocar danos internos no material comprometendo sua integridade. Assim, o presente estudo tem como objetivo fazer uma an?lise experimental da resist?ncia residual ? flex?o em tr?s pontos e compress?o ap?s o impacto (CAI), de dois tipos de laminados comp?sitos de matriz polim?rica ortoft?lica, sendo um deles refor?ado a com 7 camadas de tecido bidirecional de Vidro E (CV) e o outro refor?ado com 7 camadas de tecido bidirecional de Kevlar 49 (CK), sujeitos a impactos de baixa velocidade. Esse estudo ? de grande import?ncia pelo fato de tentar conduzir ao aparecimento prematuro de instabilidade estrutural e a consequente restri??o do seu uso. A energia utilizada nesse trabalho para os dois tipos de laminados foi de aproximadamente 96J. Al?m disso, para o material comp?sito refor?ado com fibra de kevlar, foram feitos sucessivos impactos com a mesma energia verificando sua influ?ncia nas propriedades do laminado. Sendo aplicadas 5 vezes, e 10 vezes a energia m?xima de 96J. Como resultado verificou-se que no laminado CV, tanto as propriedades de compress?o como de flex?o em tr?s pontos, a resist?ncia se manteve praticamente inalterada enquanto que o m?dulo teve uma diminui??o depois do impacto. J? no laminado CK houve um decr?scimo tanto nas propriedades de compress?o como flex?o em tr?s pontos ap?s o impacto. Essa perda da integridade desses materiais pode ser justificada pela ocorr?ncia de delamina??o nas interfaces dos comp?sitos. / The mechanical properties of the composite materials, used in the most diverse industrial applications, can be significantly reduced by the occurrence of low speed impacts. These impacts can cause internal damage to the material and compromise its integrity. Thus, the present study aims to perform an experimental analysis of the residual resistance to three-point flexural test and compression after impact (CAI), in two types of composite laminates of orthophthalic polymeric matrix, being one of them reinforced with 7 layers of E-Glass bidirectional tissue (CV) and the other reinforced with 7 layers of Kevlar 49 bidirectional tissue (CK), subject to low speed impacts. This study is of great importance because it tries to lead to the premature appearance of structural instability and the consequent restriction of its use. The energy used in this work for the two types of laminates was approximately 96J. In addition, for the Kevlar fiber reinforced composite material, were made successive impacts with the same energy being checked its influence on the properties of the laminate, where it was tested with a repetition of 5 times and 10 times the maximum energy of 96J.As result, it was found that in the CV laminate, both in the compression properties and three-point flexural properties, the resistance remained practically unchanged while the modulus had a decrease after impact. In the CK laminate, there was a decrease both in compression properties and three-point flexural properties after impact. This integrity loss of these materials can be justified by the occurrence of delamination at the interfaces of the composites.
