Barrier properties of model coatings using recycled iron oxide pigment / Barriäregenskaper hos modellbeläggningar med återvunnet järnoxidpigment

Hagenfjärd, Nathalie January 2021 (has links)
The aim of this study was to compare the barrier properties of organic coatings with the same polymer matrix but different types of iron oxide particles, commercial and recycled. The work was carried out for the company SSAB with the aim of investigating whether the pigment Merox ferric oxide, which is produced in-house at the company during the pickling process, can be used and replace commercial iron oxide pigment. Evaluation of the barrier properties was done using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy where the capacitance of the coatings is calculated and reflects the water absorption of the coating over a period of exposure to the electrolyte. By comparing the capacitance of the different coatings, an estimation of the water transport through the different coatings was made. Complementary methods used were digital optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.  In this project, 6 lab samples were evaluated. In common, the samples consisted of the same metal substrate, hot-dip galvanized steel, and the binder in the coatings was polyester-melamine. Sample 1 consisted of the binder only, sample 2 contained the commercial iron oxide pigment, samples 3 and 4 consisted of Merox pigments but different levels of chlorine in the pigment. The thickness of the coatings of the 4 samples was 6 m. Sample 5 had a thicker coating of 20 m and contained Merox pigment. The last sample evaluated was a reference sample with anti-corrosive pigment with a thickness of 20 m. Furthermore, exposure tests were carried out with sample 5 to test how different electrolyte solutions affected the samples. The electrolytes tested were 1 M Na2SO4 (for reference), 1 M NaNO3 and 0.1 M NaCl.  The impedance measurements were performed in 3 parallel measurements on the samples with thinner coating (6 m) and an average of the capacitance was used to analyze how the capacitance changes over time. The results showed that sample 1 had much better barrier properties than the samples containing iron oxide pigments, although the exposure time to electrolyte was longer for this sample, the capacitance was lower. Both samples 2 and 4 increased rapidly in capacitance over a short period of time. Sample 3 had a rapid increase at the beginning which later decreased, the sample showed better barrier properties compared to samples 2 and 4. Cross-sectional studies carried out by scanning electron microscopy detected corrosion formation between the zinc and the coating on all samples with thinner coatings. Only one impedance measurement was made on samples 5 and 6, hence multiple measurements need to be performed to calculate the capacitance over time and provide complete and reliable results for these samples.  The results of the exposure tests indicated that the electrolyte used for the electrochemical impedance measurements, 1 M Na2SO4 is more corrosive than the other electrolytes tested, 1 M NaNO3 and 0.1 M NaCl. / Syftet med denna studie var att jämföra barriärsegenskaper hos organiska beläggningar med samma polymer matris men olika typer av järnoxidpartiklar, kommersiella och återvunna. Arbetet utfördes åt företaget SSAB med målet att undersöka om pigmentet Merox ferric oxide, vilket produceras internt på företaget under betningsprocessen, kan användas och ersätta kommersiellt järnoxidpigment. Utvärdering av barriärsegenskaperna gjordes med elektrokemisk impedansspektroskopi där beläggningarnas kapacitans beräknas och avspeglar vattenabsorption av beläggningen över en tidsperiod av exponering till elektrolyt. Genom att jämföra kapacitansen för de olika beläggningarna, har en estimering av vattentransporten genom de olika beläggningarna gjorts. Kompletterande metoder som användes var digitalt optiskt mikroskop och svepelektronmikroskopi.  I detta projekt utvärderades 6 labb-prover. Gemensamt bestod proverna av samma metallsubstrat, varmförzinkat stål och bindaren i beläggningarna var polyester-melamine. Prov 1 bestod endast av bindaren, prov 2 innehöll kommersiellt järnoxidpigmentet. Prov 3 och 4 bestod av Merox pigment men olika halter av klor i pigmentet. Tjockleken på beläggningarna hos de 4 proverna var 6 m. Prov 5 hade en tjockare beläggning på 20 m och innehöll Merox pigment. Det sista provet som utvärderades var ett referensprov med anti-korrosivt pigment med en tjocklek på 20 m. Vidare gjordes exponeringstester med prov 5 för att testa hur olika elektrolytlösningar påverkade proverna. Elektrolyterna som testades var 1 M Na2SO4 (som referens), 1 M NaNO3 och 0,1 M NaCl.  Impendansmätningarna utfördes i 3 parallella mätningar på proverna med tunnare beläggning (6 m) och ett medelvärde av kapacitansen användes för att analysera hur kapacitansen förändras över tiden. Resultatet visade att prov 1 hade mycket bättre barriärsegenskaper än proverna som innehöll järnoxid pigment, även fast exponeringstiden gentemot elektrolyt var längre för detta prov så var kapacitansen lägre. Både prov 2 och 4 ökade snabbt i kapacitans under en kort tidsperiod. Prov 3 hade en snabb ökning i början som senare avtog, provet visade bättre barriärsegenskaper jämfört med prov 2 och 4. Tvärsnittsstudier som genomfördes med svepelektronmikroskopi detekterade korrosionsbildning mellan zink och beläggningen på alla prover med tunnare beläggning. Endast en impedansmätning på prov 5 och 6 utfördes, därav behövs flera mätningar genomföras för att kunna beräkna kapacitansen över tid och ge fullständiga och pålitliga resultat för dessa prover.  Resultaten från exponeringstesterna visade på att elektrolyten som använts för elektrokemiska impedansmätningarna, 1 M Na2SO4 är mer korrosiv än de andra elektrolyterna som testades, 1 M NaNO3 och 0,1 M NaCl.

Avaliação de pilares de concreto armado colorido de alta resistência, submetidos a elevadas temperaturas. / Evaluation of reinforced HSCC columns at high temperature.

Britez, Carlos Amado 23 March 2011 (has links)
Apesar da quantidade de variáveis envolvidas, ainda persiste uma dúvida na comunidade acadêmica sobre o comportamento do concreto de alta resistência em situação de incêndio, considerando-o como mais ou menos suscetível à ocorrência do fenômeno de desplacamento (spalling) tipo explosivo. Em parte, essa dúvida decorre do fato de que, muitas vezes, os programas experimentais são conduzidos em amostras envolvendo corpos-de-prova padronizados, cilíndricos ou cúbicos, que não levam em consideração a influência de parâmetros relacionados com as dimensões dos elementos estruturais nem com a taxa e configuração das armaduras. Outros aspectos relevantes, como o tipo de agregado utilizado na mistura de concreto, bem como a idade e umidade interna do elemento ensaiado, dificilmente são abordados nas pesquisas e, muitas vezes, simplesmente são omitidos, o que dificulta a visão ampla e real do comportamento térmico do concreto de alta resistência. Esta pesquisa apresenta um programa experimental pioneiro realizado no Brasil em um pilar de concreto de alta resistência, armado, colorido, com idade de oito anos, fc,8anos de 140MPa, agregado graúdo basáltico, agregado miúdo quartzoso, seção transversal de 70cm x 70cm, 200cm de altura, ensaiado sem carregamento e com exposição de três faces pelo período de 180 minutos (3h), sob as temperaturas da curva-padrão de incêndio ISO 834. O pilar protótipo ensaiado é réplica dos pilares reais do edifício e-Tower, construído em 2002, na cidade de São Paulo, Brasil. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que, neste caso, o concreto colorido de alta resistência comportou-se de forma íntegra frente ao fogo e que a utilização de pigmento à base de óxido de ferro, pode atuar também como um excelente termômetro natural, auxiliando na avaliação da condição da estrutura pósincêndio. / In spite of the several factors that influence the behavior of concrete columns under fire conditions, there is a belief among the research community, that the high-strength concrete is more susceptible to explosive spalling than normal-strength concrete. This doubt, in part, is attributed to the small unreinforced concrete samples (specimens) used in experimental programs, to evaluate the fire resistance of structural concrete. On the other hand, relevant aspects as the coarse aggregate type used in the concrete mixture, as well as the age and content moisture (relative humidity) are not considered in the researches and sometimes simply omitted. This research presents a pioneer experimental program, carried out in Brazil on a high strength colored reinforced concrete column (HSCC) with 200cm high, eight yearsold, fc,8years of 140MPa, basalt coarse aggregate, cross section of 700mm x 700mm, tested under no load and with three faces exposed to a standard fire curve ISO 834 for a period of 180min (3h). The column prototype is a replica of the actual columns of the e-Tower Building, constructed in 2002 in São Paulo city, Brazil. The results demonstrated concrete column integrity under experimental fire and that the iron oxide pigments can work as an excellent natural thermometer, contributing in the evaluation of the structure post-fire.
