Previous issue date: 2011-07-22 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / The process of recycling has been stimulated by the markets for several reasons, mainly on economical and environmental. Several products have been developed from recycled materials that already exist as well as several residues have been studied in different forms of applications. The greater majority of the applications for thermal insulation in the domestic, commercial and industrial systems have been elaborated in the temperature ranges between low to medium reaching up to 180oC. Many materials such as glass wool, rock wool, polystyrene are being used which are aggressive to the environment. Such materials in spite of the effectiveness in the retention of heat flow, they cost more and when discarded take several years to be absorbed by the nature. This way, in order to adapt to a world politics concerning the preservation of the environment, the present study was intended to develop a material composed of natural/biodegradable materials and industrial residues. The development of such a product in the form of a composite material based on tyre scrapes and latex for thermal insulation is presented in this research work. Thermal and physical properties of the tire scrapes as well as latex were studied in order to use them as raw materials for the manufacture of the intended composite to be applied as a thermal insulator in hot and cold systems varying between 0?C and 200oC, respectively. Composite blankets were manufactured manually, in weight proportions of 1:1 (50:50%); 1:2 (33:67%) and 2:1 (67:33%) (tire scrapes: latex) respectively. Physical, mechanical and thermal properties of the composites were analyzed to obtain data about the viability of using the composite as a thermal insulator. The analyses carried out were based on standards ABNT, ASTM and UL. The maximum temperature obtained for the composite as a thermal insulator was 200?C, which meets the range of applications that could be used as a thermal insulator in domestic as well as industrial purposes. The experimental results prove that the composite can be used as a thermal insulator on heated or cooled surface / A reciclagem tem sido muito estimulada pelo mercado. J? existem v?rios produtos que s?o produzidos com materiais reciclados e v?rios res?duos t?m sido estudados nas mais diversas formas de aplica??es. A grande maioria das aplica??es de isolamento t?rmico em sistemas dom?sticos, comerciais e industriais na faixa de baixas e m?dias temperaturas (at? 180?C), utilizam materiais agressivos ? natureza tais como: l? de vidro, l? de rocha, poliuretano, poliestireno. Tais materiais, apesar da efic?cia na reten??o do fluxo de calor, t?m custo elevado e quando descartados demoram anos para serem absorvidos pela natureza. Dessa forma, tentando adequar-se a uma pol?tica mundial acerca da preserva??o do meio ambiente, foi realizado um estudo com o intuito de desenvolver um isolante t?rmico composto de materiais naturais/biodegrad?veis e rejeitos industriais. Com isso, esta pesquisa apresenta o desenvolvimento de um material comp?sito a base de raspas de pneu e l?tex para isolamento t?rmico. Para isso, analisou-se as propriedades t?rmicas e f?sicas da raspa de pneu e do l?tex visando a utiliza??o como mat?ria-prima para fabrica??o do comp?sito a ser aplicado como isolante t?rmico em sistemas quentes (at? 200?C) e frios (0?C). Atrav?s de processos manuais, foram fabricadas mantas do comp?sito nas propor??es em peso de 1:1 (50:50%); 1:2 (33:67%) e 2:1 (67:33%) (raspa de pneu : l?tex) respectivamente. Foram analisadas propriedades f?sicas e t?rmicas dos comp?sitos com intuito de obter dados sobre a viabilidade de uso como isolante t?rmico. As an?lises foram fundamentadas em normas ABNT, ASTM e UL. O limite de temperatura de trabalho obtido para o comp?sito foi de 200?C, que se encontra na faixa de aplica??es que abrangem desde o uso domestico at? o industrial. Os resultados obtidos experimentalmente comprovaram que o comp?sito, pode ser utilizado para fins de isolamento t?rmico tanto em superf?cies aquecidas como resfriadas
