Spiders spin up to seven different types of silk and each type possesses different mechanical properties. The reports on base sequences of spider silk protein genes have gained importance as the mechanical properties of silk fibers have been revealed. This review aims to link recent molecular data, often translated in…

We have studied the phase transformation kinetics occurring in aluminum alloys containing Mn, Mg, and Mn-Mn-Mg by means of electrical resistivity (rho) and thermoelectric power (deltaS). The alloy samples were annealed isochronally at temperatures ranging from ambient temperature to 615 °C. Both rho and deltaS allowed…

To understand the principles of polymer modification and its interference in the formation of some phases of Portland cement composites, several techniques are adopted such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Thermogravimetric Analysis. In this study, these techniques were adopted to verify the influence of…

HEMA/MMA/EDMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate/methyl methacrylate/ethyleneglycol methacrylate) copolymer beads have been synthesized for use in aqueous SEC. This porous chromatographic support consisted of a large average particle size (250 µm) and contained macropores with a median pore size of approximately 880 Å. The…

This paper deals with a new concept that is Functionally Gradient Materials (FGM). The materials developed in this work are constituted by a 430L matrix core and composite materials with this matrix and gradient concentration with NbC reinforcement, from the core to the surface, through different steps. Composite powd…

Most of today s fatigue analysis and design methods for composite laminates were developed primarily on the basis of experience with homogeneous metals. Such methods are subject to serious drawbacks, however, because the failure the modes of failure observed in metals. A theoretical model for predicting the fatigue li…

Interpretation of chlorides profiles is important to predict concrete structures service life, among other factors. However, reported results are, in general, from small specimens exposed to specific atmospheres instead of real structures. The objective of this work was the obtention and interpretation of the chloride…

Poly(o-methylaniline) (poly-o-toluidine, PTOL) was synthesized by chemical oxidation of o-toluidine with ammonium peroxydisulfate in an aqueous 1.0 mol L-1 HCl solution. The progress of polymerization was followed by measuring the open-circuit potential (OCP) of a Pt electrode immersed in the reaction medium with the…

In a PWR nuclear power plant, the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) contains the fuel assemblies and reactor vessels internals and keeps the coolant at high temperature and high pressure during normal operation. The RPV integrity must be assured all along its useful life to protect the general public against a significant…

In this work, the feldspar used as a flux in typical porcelain was replaced by waste glass, and the resulting batch composition contained 50% kaolin, 25% quartz and 25% waste glass. The properties of this porcelain with glass powder (GP) were compared to traditional porcelain (TP), which utilizes feldspar. The samples…

This paper discusses the application of ultrasound waves on a Brazilian hardwood, Goupia glabra, to evaluate the sensitivity of the ultrasonic technique to the moisture content in wood. The velocity of ultrasonic wave is sensitive to the material's quality-determining factors; hence, this technique is an important ind…
