Dentre os materiais de fontes naturais e renováveis, a celulose se destaca pela sua abundância, podendo ser encontrada em diversos organismos vivos, como plantas, amebas, bactérias, fungos e alguns animais marinhos. Suas dimensões podem ser reduzidas por quebra das cadeias amorfas, com possibilidade de atingir escalas nanométricas, obtendo-se assim as chamadas nanopartículas de celulose ou nanocelulose. Devido à alta cristalinidade, a nanocelulose possui altos valores de módulo elástico, proporcionando alta capacidade de reforço em matrizes poliméricas, combinados com baixo peso, área superficial elevada e biodegradabilidade. A borracha natural é uma matéria-prima de fonte natural, sendo extraída das seringueiras na forma de látex - dispersão coloidal de partículas de borracha e substâncias não-borrachas em um meio aquoso, com aspecto leitoso. No presente trabalho foram estudados compósitos de borracha natural e nanocelulose. Inicialmente, foi realizada uma análise do látex de nacionalidade brasileira, centrifugado, contendo 60% em massa de sólidos. Os resultados de caracterização do látex centrifugado comercial, a qual consistiu na análise de concentração de sólidos totais e na medida do pH, estavam de acordo com os dados apresentados pelo fornecedor. Além disso, a análise de distribuição de tamanho de partícula indicou que o material apresenta uma população, com tamanho médio de 1,0 ?m. A borracha coagulada com ácido acético apresentou, após mastigação em cilindro aberto, viscosidade Mooney e extrato acetônico igual a, respectivamente, 52,8 e 2,57%. As nanoceluloses foram obtidas por hidrólise com ácido ortofosfórico (NC P) e sulfúrico (NC S), sendo classificadas como nanocristal de celulose (NC). NC P apresentaram comprimento médio, razão de aspecto e cristalinidade igual a, respectivamente, 270 ± 89 nm, 50 ± 24 e 78%; e as NC S apresentaram 209 ± 51 nm, 29 ± 10 e 75%.. Os compósitos de borracha natural com nanocristais de celulose apresentaram, nos ensaios de tração, aumentos nos valores de todas as propriedades analisadas, quando comparados à borracha natural pura. Ao adicionar-se 10 phr de nanocelulose preparada com ácido fosfórico na borracha natural, os valores de resistência à tração na ruptura, alongamento na ruptura e módulo a 300% aumentaram, respectivamente, em 90%, 16% e 52%. Já com a adição de 10 phr de NC S, essas propriedades aumentaram, respectivamente, em 68%, 5% e 109%. O mesmo foi observado para a dureza Shore A. Com a adição de 10 phr de nanocelulose obtida por ácido fosfórico à composição da borracha natural, a dureza Shore A aumentou em cerca de 22%; já com a adição de 10 phr de NCs S, a dureza da borracha natural aumentou em 36%. / Among the natural and renewable sources\' materials, cellulose stands out for its abundance, it can be found in many living organisms, such as plants, amoebas, bacteria, fungi and some marine animals. Its dimensions can be reduced by breaking the amorphous chains, with the possibility of reaching nanometric scales, obtaining the nanocellulose or cellulose nanoparticles. Due to the high crystallinity, the nanocellulose has high elastic modulus value, providing high reinforcement capacity combined with low weight, high surface area and biodegradability. Natural rubber is a raw material from a natural source, extracted from the latex - colloidal dispersion of rubber particles and non-rubbers in a milkylooking aqueous solution. At this work, composites of natural rubber and nanocellulose were studied. Initially, a Brazilian centrifuged latex with 60% of its weight in solids was characterized, by analyzing if the total solids concentration and the pH measurement is in agreement with the data presented by the supplier. In addition, particle size distribution analysis demonstrated that the material had an average size of 1.0 ?m. Then, the mastication in the open cylinder and the Mooney viscosity and acetone extract was measured and them were equal to, respectively, 52.8 and 2.57%. The nanocelluloses obtained by hydrolysis with phosphoric and sulfuric acids are classified as cellulose nanocrystal. NC P present average length, aspect ratio and crystallinity equal to 270 ± 89 nm, 50 ± 24 and 78%; and the NC S had 209 ± 51 nm, 29 ± 10 and 75%. In the tensile test, it was observed that there was an increase in all the mechanical properties analyzed for natural rubber when adding the nanocellulose in its composition. By adding 10 phr of prepared nanocellulose with phosphoric acid in the natural rubber the values of tensile strength at rupture, strain at rupture and modulus at 300% increased, respectively, by 90%, 16% and 52%. When added 10 phr of NC S, these properties increased, respectively, by 68%, 5% and 109%. The same was observed for Shore A hardness. When adding 10 phr of nanocellulose obtained by phosphoric acid in its composition, the Shore A hardness increased by about 22%; When adding 10 phr of NCs S, the hardness increased by 36%.

Hevea brasiliensis, un arbre tropical, est la source principale de caoutchouc naturel commercialement viable. La biosynthèse de caoutchouc se passe dans les cellules spécialisées appelées laticifères. Il représente jusqu’à 90% de la matière sèche du latex. Le latex, laiteux, s’écoule de l’encoche faite sur l’écorce de l’arbre jusqu’aux cellules laticifères. La collecte de latex, faite par saignée régulière tous 2-3 jours, est vraiment stressante pour l’arbre. Pour stimuler la production de latex, un générateur d’éthylène peut être appliqué sur le panneau de saignée. Le stress s’intensifie avec l’application hormonale. La production d’espèces activées de l’oxygène (ROS) se fait en réponse aux stress environnementaux ainsi que lors de l’exploitation de l’arbre. Au-delà d’un certain seuil, la production de ROS est massive dans les laticifères. De nombreuses études ont montré que les ROS entraîne une dégradation par peroxydation des lipides insaturés des membranes et ensuite une déstabilisation et lyse des organites. La lyse des lutoïdes permet la libération des facteurs de coagulation dans le latex entraînant la coagulation in situ des particules de caoutchouc dans l’écorce des arbres stressés. Ce syndrome physiologique, appelé syndrome de l’encoche sèche (TPD), est un des facteurs limitant la production de caoutchouc.Ce travail de thèse vise à identifier les gènes associés à la production et la neutralisation des ROS ainsi que leurs caractérisations dans les laticifères. Premièrement, nous avons fait une analyse bibliographique complète sur les gènes associés à la production et la neutralisation des ROS chez l’hévéa et les plantes modèles. La NADPH oxydase a été décrite comme la source principale de ROS chez les arbres stressés. Les enzymes antioxydantes et les antioxydants constituent le système de neutralisation des ROS. Deuxièmement, à partir d’une analyse à l’échelle du génome, 407 gènes impliqués dans la production des ROS et dans leur neutralisation ont été identifiés. Troisièmement, à partir d’une analyse du transcriptome, 164 gènes redox ont été détectés dans le latex du clone SP 217 et 161 dans celui du clone PB 260. Quatrièmement, à partir des petits ARNs et d’une analyse dégradome, 13 gènes ont été identifiés pour être clivés par 11 microARNs et 15 gènes clivés par 16 petits ARNs phasés dans le latex. Enfin, cette étude a mis en évidence des régulations spécifiques de la production des ROS et du système antioxydant dans le latex. HbRBOH2 a été identifié comme la source principale de ROS dans le latex. HbCuZnSOD4 pourrait être le contributeur majeur de la neutralisation des ROS dans le latex des arbres atteints de TPD. / Hevea brasiliensis, a tropical tree, is the main commercial source of nature rubber. The rubber biosynthesis occurs in specialized latex cells of rubber tree. Up 90% dry weight of latex is nature rubber. The milky latex flows out from cut latex cells by tapping rubber tree trunk bark. Rubber exploitation by tapping every several days is very stressful for the bark of rubber tree. To stimulate latex production, ethylene releaser is applied during rubber exploitation in some cases. The stress is increased after hormone stimulation. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is generated when plant suffers stresses from environment and harvesting activity. Over a certain limit of stress, ROS bursting is motivated in latex cell. A lots of the evidences showed that the ROS lead to the peroxidatic degradation of the unsaturated lipids of the membrane and then to destabilisation and lysis of the organelles. Lysis of the lutoids results in liberation of coagulating factors into latex and coagulation in situ of rubber particles in stressed trees. This serious physiology syndrome is tapping panel dryness (TPD) which is one of main factor limiting rubber production.This PhD aims at identifying ROS production and scavenging genes and their characterizations in latex cell. Firstly, we made a comprehensive bibliography study on ROS production and scavenging genes both in rubber tree and model plant. The NADPH oxidase was considered as the main source of ROS in the stressed trees. ROS scavenging enzymes and antioxidants constituted the ROS scavenging systems in latex. Secondly, based on a genome-wide analysis, 407 genes involved in ROS production and scavenging were identified. Thirdly, based on a transcriptome analysis, 164 redox-related genes were detected expressing in latex of clone SP217 and 161 genes expressing in latex of clone PB260. Fourthly, based on small RNA and degradome analysis, 13 genes were shown to be targeted by 11 microRNAs and 15 genes by 16 phased siRNA in latex. Lastly, this study illustrated specific regulation systems of ROS production and scavenging in latex. HbRBOH2 was identified as the main source gene of ROS in latex. HbCuZnSOD4 might be the most important ROS scavenging gene to detoxify the ROS in latex of TPD tolerant tree.
