A number of Al-, Mg- and Ti-base alloys were preconditioned by oxidation via Plasma-electrolytic oxidation (PEO) followed by the addition of Cr and Ni elements in the coating pores by chemical precipitation and a final stage of mechanical treatment. The overall effect was a combination of hardness and resistance to we…
Alumina films were deposited from a new plasma method using aluminum acetylacetonate (AAA) powder as precursor. The AAA was sputtered in argon and oxygen plasma mixtures. It was investigated the effect of the oxygen proportion (O2%) on the properties of the coatings. Deposition rate was derived from the layer height m…
In this work, nanocomposites with simultaneous dispersion of carbon nanotubes and clays in a high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix were prepared. Two different processes of preparation were employed: solution or melt intercalation. Two different montmorillonite clays were used separately: a natural (MMT-Na) or an or…
The corrosion behavior at different positions (top and bottom) of the weld nugget zone along the thickness plates in AA6061-T6 aluminum alloys welded by friction stir lap welding, under the conditions of 1000 rpm-60 mm/min and 900 rpm-40 mm/min in a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution, was investigated by Tafel polarization at ambi…
Titanium carbonitride (TiCN) thin films were deposited on hot-work steel (DIN 1.2606) by plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD) and the influence of different CH4/ (CH4+N2) gas flow ratio, on the layer mechanical properties, were investigated. SEM studies indicated that the growth rate is decreased by incre…
Paleometry is a promising research field that brings together different areas, such as physics and chemistry, applied to paleobiological issues. In spite of being recognized abroad, it is a new research field in Brazil. The most important characteristic is the application of mostly non-destructive techniques to the st…
Thermal inkjet-printing of copper tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine (CuTsPc) films containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) plasticizer were used to fabricate flexible metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors using anodic aluminum oxide (Al2O3) as the insulating layer. The Al2O3 layer and printed CuTsPc+PVA films were ch…
The work consists in evaluating the results of physical indices (apparent porosity, water absorption and apparent density) obtained in granitoids exploited as ornamental and revetment stones in the state of São Paulo and Espírito Santo. The results of physical indices were qualified as parameters specification publish…
This research studies the effects of mechanical cleaning by brushing and by abrasive blasting on the lime render coating of a façade. After analysing the properties of the material, the deposits to be removed and their possible influence on the treatment, different cleaning tests were made by manual brushing and by bl…
Fruit juices concentrated by osmotic distillation are characterized by higher organoleptic and sensorial properties than those of juices concentrated by thermal evaporation as confirmed by several research studies. On the other hand, no literature is readily available about the rheological characterization of juices c…
Cracks, especially microcracks, in concrete are of paramount importance to the durability and the service life of cementitious composite. However, the self-healing technology, including autogenous healing and autonomous healing, is expected to be one of effective tools to overcome this boring problem. In this paper, w…
After the 1755 earthquake that destroyed Lisbon, an innovative anti-seismic structural system was developed consisting of a timber skeleton, that included timber framed masonry walls. After more than 250 years these structures need rehabilitation to face the present demands. The research presented in this paper aimed…
Calcium leaching is a degradation process consisting in progressive dissolution of the cement paste by migration of calcium atoms to the aggressive solution. It is therefore, a complex phenomenon involving several phases and dissolution and diffusion processes simultaneously. Along this work, a new computational schem…
The aim of this work was to study the corrosion behavior of three commercial nanoceramic coatings in comparison to zinc phosphate coatings applied on mild steel (SAE 1010). The coatings were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), profilometry and hydrophobicity. The electrochemical behavior was evaluated by…
The friction and wear properties of AISI 1045 steel, nylon 6.6 composites with different types and percentages of reinforcement and a nitrile rubber, Alpha 66, were submitted to sliding wear tests. The five types of nylon 6.6 composites tested generated matching, low values for the coefficient of friction. This may be…
A study has been made of the effect of short randomly dispersed polypropylene fibers on the fracture behavior of lightweight structural concrete. Using unnotched and precracked beams subjected to bend loading, it was possible to determine the toughness factor TF and to estimate specific J integral parameters, namely J…
Surface modification techniques based on the grafting of chemical functional groups and immobilization of bioactive molecules have been used to improve biocompatibility and clinical performance of bioabsorbable scaffolds in tissue engineering and medicine regenerative applications. This study aimed at developing and c…
In the present work the effect of the microwave hybrid fast sintering of mullite-Al2O3 with non-stoichiometric mullite composition was investigated. Samples were fast sintered using a range of microwave power from 1.2 to 2.1 kW. The mullitization process of the silica-rich composition was faster than that of the alumi…
Single-phase Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3 (PFW) multiferroic ceramics doped with magnetic ions were fabricated using a modified B-site precursor method. Dielectric response was investigated over a wide range of temperature and frequency. Doping did not modify the characteristic temperatures (T C, T N) and the order at ferroelectri…
This study will analyze the two-dimensional nonlinear partial slip contact problem between a graded half plane in the normal to the contact interface and a rigid flat punch subject to a normal load. The problem, formulated under plane strain conditions, is reduced to singular integral equations of the second kind that…
