This study aimed to contribute to the understanding ofintegration between Sanitary Surveillanceand Basic Attention, specifically in the Family Health Strategy, in a city in the countryside of São Paulo.Based on the theoretical frameworks on comprehensiveness, health promotion, Primary healthand health surveillance –Sanitary Surveillance-we seek to analyze the practices of Sanitary Surveillancein Basic Attention–specifically in the strategy of family health, through the perceptions of the Community Health Agents, considering the conception of Sanitary Surveillance, the actions and potentialities and weaknesses related to that integration. This study was attended by ten Community Health Agents, belonging to a Family Health Strategyof each territorial region and, as a qualitative research, developed from semi-structured interviews with the mentioned agents, whowork in the Family Health Strategyof the chosen city. The data wastreated based on the thematic content of the interviews through a subsequently ideographic and nomothetictrajectory,and organized into thematic categories, where the general characterization was initially performed and subsequently analyzed and empirically categorized: actions and work routine ofthe agents; the conception of Sanitary Surveillance; the relations between the work of the agentsand the Sanitary Surveillance; Difficulties and facilities for the development of related actions. The findings of the study pointedto the need ofdiscussion regarding issues related to Sanitary Surveillanceand the integrality ofhealth care: understanding about health surveillance; the need to approach Sanitary Surveillancewith Basic Attention. Also questions regarding health surveillance and actions of promotion and prevention of healthcare and other important issues for the interaction of basic attention and Sanitary Surveillance:professionaltraining. Thus, we understand that apparently the perceptions of the Community Health Agents, as well as the practices and actions of Sanitary Surveillancein the context of their actionsin the Family Health Strategy, from the perspective of the integration of actions is an incomplete process and that often theirconception on the Sanitary Surveillancepoint almost exclusively to the regulatory and surveillance issues of Sanitary Surveillanceto the detriment of health promotion and protection actions. However, we identified that the Community Health Agentsperform various actions in the territories related to the actions of the Sanitary Surveillance, but they do not make this correlation.Therefore, it seems essential that this discussion is highlighted in the context of Unified Health System, seeking strategies for greater integration of Sanitary Surveillanceand Basic Attention

This work is about the development of environment-related mathematics worksheets to give students a critical view of the world, make them search for solutions to their own communities and, in that process, understand how useful and necessary the mathematical tools are. That is the challenge that this work tries to overcome. Using Mathematical Modeling through analysis on real, serious problems concerning our environment, we introduce mathematical concepts which, through several exercises, take the students to a new thinking and rethinking about the world, perceiving information, making predictions and finding solutions to make life better for them and for their community.

La presente investigación trató de entender dentro del Asentamiento Bela Vista las diversas estrategias de resistencia campesina, sobre todo, haciendo referencia al lote Mãe Terra como un Territorio de Resistencia . Estas estrategias se vieron más allá de los aspectos económicos, lo que suscita las costumbres culturales, educativas, los políticos y los presentes en la orden moral campesina. Con este fin, tratamos de hacer una revisión bibliográfica del sentido de la política de reforma agraria en varios territorios, para entender lo que sería sentido dela política agraria brasileira, permitiendo la comprensión de la Contrarreforma Agraria presente en Brasil. También es necesario comprender la territorialización del movimiento de los trabajadores rurales sin tierra (MST) y sus orígenes, ya que sólo era posible conquistar el asentamiento, con la lucha de Campesinado. Para la comprensión de la resistencia campesina en el asentamiento de Bela Vista y el lote Mãe Terra como un territorio de esperanza, se puso en marcha la técnica de grabación y registro de relatos orales, Donde de un guión previamente elaborado, reveló el perfil de la familia assentada, su origen, su visión política y cómo entienden y organizan dentro de este proceso de lucha por la reforma agraria, también era necesario emitir elementos de resistencia campesina, un tema central dentro de la investigación. La investigación tiene el lote Mãe Terra como territorio de esperanza, que desde la ocupación de la tierra, tiene en la resistencia, en el modo de vida, en las relaciones de solidaridad y en el respeto del medio ambiente formas de garantizar su reproducción como campesinos.

This thesis deals with the right of the rural population to education, especially the access to higher education in law courses, through the public policy called Pronera - National Program of Education in Agrarian Reform. Pronera It was created by the social movements of the countryside. In 2006, started the first law course through Pronera, at the Federal University of Goiás, with formation of the first class in 2012. In 2013, two new classes began in the State of Bahia. In addition to the three groups mentioned, there are three other Pronera Law classes in progress, one at the Federal University of Paraná, the other at the Federal University of Goiás and the Federal University of South and Southeast Pará. The research analyzes these courses and their impact. in guaranteeing the rights of the rural population, if they have the possibility to train organic professionals to their social classes and if the specificities of the Course can contribute to legal education. To this end, a bibliographic and documentary research and interviews were conducted with the coordinators and students of the courses. The method used was dialectical historical materialism, more suitable for understanding concrete reality. The conclusions are that the courses make possible the access to the Law Course for the rural population, despite the small number of vacancies still offered, and the difficulties still faced, with the pedagogy of alternation and the limitation of resources, which contribute to there is counter-hegemonic legal education, as opposed to traditional legal education, which has the possibility of training organic professionals to their social classes, committed to the realization of rights and social justice.

Aristotle's account of sensation starts from two main sense objects that actualize the senses, namely, those proper to each sense and those common to all the senses. Proper as color to sight, sound to hear, and so on; and common are listed as movement, rest, figure, unity and size. Proper and common sensible are held to act on the senses as concomitant (ἀκουλουθουντα) to each other, which means that we cannot see a color without a size, and vice-versa. Since discrimination of sensible differences is putative to a unit of the faculty of perception the clarification of this sensible unit should be able to support the explanation of the discrimination of sensible differences. The first step towards this explanation comes from the joint cause of proper and common sensible. For the second, we must treat of Aristotle's definition of sense in general which says that sense is what has the capacity to receive into itself the sensible forms without the matter. This definition specifies that sensible forms occurs according to a quality (τοιονδί) and a proportion (λόγος). In this way the unity of common and proper sensible would be equivalent to the sensible form received without matter, and hence the foundation of all sensation. Whether and how the clarification of this unity makes it possible to understand discrimination is a more complex matter, since there are two points of view to be discussed: the nature and necessity of a central sense organ and the formal unity necessary for sensitive discrimination. Our hypothesis is that Aristotle's explanation is carried out by taking the proper sensible as a link to a unitary approach of the sense faculty which is the unity for both proper and common sensibles.

The term “judicial activism” has been widely used in the media, well as in the academic papers. It turns out, however, that this is an ambiguous term. Thus, the present work initially sought to find the origins of this expression and to analyze the discourse in which it was used, with the intention of extracting the original meaning of what Judicial Activism would be. It was noticed throughout the study that the author of this expression, Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., did not intend to create a concept, which turned out to be an effect produced. Despite not intending to create a concept, through the narrative of his text we were able to establish the elements that would characterize Judicial Activism, proposing our concept of Judicial Activism and Self-Containment. From this definition, we proceeded to the study of Judicialization of Politics, with the historical rescue of the expansion of the Judiciary Power, which led, in our opinion, the emergence of this phenomenon. Thus, from the study of the relevant literature, it was possible to extract the various meanings in which this term is used and, based on all these elements, we formulate a concept of Judicialization of Politics, in order to differentiate it from Judicial Activism. Then, we started to study the Politicization of the Judiciary, establishing the various meanings in which this expression can be used, also in order to differentiate them from the other terms. Once the conceptual question was solved, the path through which the studies of Judicial Activism for Law and Political Science went through was established, establishing, in the end, the different trajectories and conceptions of this term for each of the sciences. Finally, the question was answered as to whether Judicial Activism is the poison or the remedy for Democracy.

Brazil, which is a continental country, has an appropriate climate for various agricultural practices. Insects, in general, are considered pests for agricultural areas, among them, an Atta sexdens rubropilosa (leafcutter ant) that attacks as eucalyptus, pine plantations among others. Control of this pest becomes essential for the best productivity of cultivated areas. This control can be directed to inhibition of enzymes present in the target insect organism. In this line, the present work aims to immobilize the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in SPEs (screen printed electrode), using the layer-by-layer technique, using AuNPs-GSH (glutathione-decorated gold nanoparticles) and EDC reagents ( 1-ethyl-3- (3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide) and HOBt (Hydroxybenzotriazole) which establish the covalent bonds responsible for immobilizing an AchE in the SPEs. Electrochemical responses confirm effective immobilization of the enzyme with this developed protocol. For inhibition assays, Azadiractin limonoid, Toona ciliata crude extract and Picramnia riedelli and P. ciliata crude extracts showed significant inhibition percentage against AChE. The 1H NMR spectra of the crude extracts used were obtained to propose natural compounds present in them and to indicate possible relationships with the results of the enzymatic assays. These extracts showed good insecticidal activity against the leafcutter ant.

The present study aimed to know the territorial and community actions in Latin America, using a dialectical historical materialist reading. The terms territory and community fit into the political, economic and social relations established in the capitalist model of production. In occupational therapy, the terms were incorporated as a result of political, social and economic events in the countries, as a way to unite criticism about social reality with professional practices. The study aimed to understand the theoretical and conceptual development of the terms territory and community and its reflection on the practical actions performed by occupational therapy in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Colombia. To this end, data collection was performed in two stages: in the first, we elaborated four conceptual reviews of the literature, including eight interviews with most recurrent authors in the analyzed references of each country; in the second stage, social case studies were conducted through four participant observations, including interviews with the social actors present in the experiences followed. The results on the conceptual development identified that the productions of Brazil and Colombia presented concepts to the term territory, since community is more used in the Argentine and Chilean productions. In Argentina, the use of the term community and community actions began in the 1980s, influenced by the country's economic and political crises. In Brazil, community was incorporated by political militancy of professionals in the late 1970s, while territory entered the field amid psychiatric reform and the advancement of public policies in the 1990s; territorial and community action circumscribes collective micro-level interventions that seek to produce resonances in the social macrostructure. In Chile, community is incorporated in the early 1970s, composing the movement for democracy in the country, while territory was already used in the 1990s with the implementation of public policies; in practice, the actions correspond to community work, aimed at strengthening people's social participation. In Colombia, the use of the term community began in the 1980s as a result of the work of professionals with the victims of an environmental catastrophe and in university extension projects, territory started to be used after the implementation of territorial public policies and strengthened with Peace Agreement in 2016; territorial and community actions are correlated with social vulnerability and situations of violence. In the case studies, five principles present in the territorial-community action in Latin American occupational therapy stand out: the action implied in the collective and in social relations; the weaving of formal and informal networks; the building of bonds through the use of activities; the horizontality and availability in relationships; and strategies to address social vulnerability at the micro and macrosocial scopes. Finally, we indicate that the territory concept suggests a combination of space, process and relationship, surpassing the definition of a physical geographic space. While community brings the idea of collectivity, networks, belonging and identity. It is concluded that both are used in an articulated manner, which presupposes a reflection on people's ways of life and the relationships they establish with their living spaces in search of an intervention that promotes the weaving of solidarity in places as one of the purposes of the technical action.

The search for insecticide and fungicide substances to control leaf-cutting ants through biomonitored phytochemical study of Picramnia species and evaluation of bacteriostatic activity in Xanthomonas citri. Subsp citri. The search for substances with potential activity is the target of numerous studies within the chemistry of natural products, ranging from structural elucidation to the mechanism of action. Some Picramnia species have a variety of class of secondary compounds, generating interest in their application, justifying the study of this family. The species Picramnia riedelle has little study regarding its chemical composition and biological activity of its constituents. In this context, this work was developed in order to perform biomonitored study of Pricamnia riedelle extracts, seeking isolated active principles and characterizing them. Thus, the activity of methanolic extracts of leaves and branches, fractions and some isolated substances was evaluated, performing fungicide, insecticide and bacterial assays. We identified in this work 4 long chain acids, 4 long chain esters and 5 anthraquinones, together with the synthesis of a new metal complex with an anthraquinone as the ligand, the first time the report of such a molecule formed. Together with the aid of the centrifugal partition chromatography technique used for the fractionation of methanolic leaf extract.

Jongo is a common dance in southeastern Brazil and performed by black groups or communities - urban or rural. It is recognized as a traditional practice in maintaining drumming, dancing, dress, song form and articulation, as well as bonding with ancestors - both to appropriate their knowledge and to greet them. The jongo was made Intangible Cultural Heritage of Brazil because it has the characteristics of “Afro-Brazilian cultural manifestation, which comprises the elements: dancing to the sound of drums and singing with magic-poetic elements” (Iphan, 2007). From materials elaborated on the jongo, with the Iphan Dossier, the historiographic and anthropological bibliography, I return to some elaborate themes, such as African acculturation and crossbreeding. These studies made important contributions to black culture approaches in Brazil, and generally formulated analyzes of the origins of jongo and its relationship with society. Supported by the community of Jongo de Piquete, located in Piquete - a city of the state of São Paulo, I propose to highlight other practitioners agencies to maintain the jongo, the intrinsic relations to its practice and what are the disagreements with the reference literature. Throughout the reflection, I suggest that continuity is a purpose that connects families, ancestors, drums and times, as relevant as the bonds they produce with their surroundings. This paper seeks to contribute to anthropological debates about traditional practices and communities.

In the present thesis, nanostructured coatings of Ti (100 - (20 + z)) -Nb20-Xz alloys (X = Zr and Mg) were produced by sputtering. So with that, it was possible to analyze the effect of the addition of Zr and Mg on the physical, mechanical, morphological, structural and biological behavior compared to the same alloys made by casting in copper mold. The results show that Zr has an effect on the formation of phases, texture, mechanical and biological properties of the TiNb system for both cast alloys and coatings, since low levels favor the formation of martensitic phases regardless of the cooling rate, and in the coatings the precipitation of the ω phase, but for Zr contents greater than 20 at. %, it occurs the stabilization of the β phase. Also, the addition of zirconium causes the presence of texture in the coatings, which is similar to the melted alloys rapidly solidified. In addition, a decrease in both the elastic modulus and the hardness of the cast alloys, reaching values close to the bone with the increase in the cooling rate. While for Mg, the structural, morphological, mechanical and tribological properties depend on the transformation from α to β phase with increasing Mg content. Biologically, the alloys had an increase in cell growth, showing the potential of these systems for their possible use in the manufacture of medical implantation devices.

Water is an indispensable natural resource for life on Earth and it is used indirectly or directly at all productive activities. Therefore, attention to the impacts of water use is a relevant topic for the sustainable production. Brazil is one the world´s largest producer of chicken meat, which can promote several environmental impacts, including water resources. Thus, the objective of this master’s dissertation was to perform a Water Footprint Assessment and ecoefficiency assessment of the processing of poultry meat in Brazil. For the water footprint, it was used the ISO14046:2014 standard and the impact assessment methods chosen were: ReCiPe Midpoint (H) for freshwater eutrophication category, USEtox for ecotoxicity and carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic human toxicity categories, and the Available Water Remaining (AWARE) method was adopted for the water scarcity category. The product system defined was modeled from a cradle-to-gate perspective, from obtaining live chicken to slaughter, and processing meat and co-products generation. In addition, eco-efficiency was measured for each of the processes mapped based on ISO 14045:2012 guidelines. The results showed that chicken farm is a process with greater generation of water impacts (up to 98,7%) when compared to the industrial manufacturing activities. However, knowing that time is a key issue for any manufacturing process, the water footprint associated with poultry fattening and manufacturing processing time were evaluated, showing that the manufacturing was the environmental hotspot at this time. At manufacture level, chilling was the most damaging process to water resources (up to 99,7%) per unit of time. The most ecoefficient process was defeathiring and the least one was the bleeding process. Finally, it can be concluded that there was a change in the environmental hotspot analysis of the study when performing the ecoefficiency assessment vs. Water Footprint approach. Therefore, adopting or not of both of these two approaches is critical for proposing improvements and creating new scenarios looking for alternatives for improving environmental performance under the life cycle of products.

This project arose from worries caused by a brazilian Math Education increasingly disappointing in the public Middle Schools and, in this context, it had as objective to contribute with a new didactic view of this area of knowledge, by means of the adaptation of an activity, based on the innovative method of the School Projeto Âncora, in a conventional school in order to answer the following issue of research: Which contributions the use of the Mathematics Didactics of an innovative school can propitiate to the Teaching of Mathematics of a conventional school? In search of an elucidation to this question, it was conducted a field research at Projeto Âncora to explore their Mathematics Didactic. From the collected notes in the visits, it was possible to execute an experimentation with a multi-age group of 10 students (6º to 9º grades) who worked in the building of checkerboards, developing, in a practical way, basic abilities of geometry and arithmetic. The findings of this study showed a satisfying indicative to answer the issue of research, namely, it was possible to notice contributions generated from this adaptive proposal, such as the incentive of an integrated view of Math, the efficacy of a multi-age group and the proactive participation of the students during the whole experimentation, justified the viability of similar didactic adaptations in conventional schools as long as there are structural conditions and support of the school management.

We researched a practice in community music, conducted with children and youth participating in the project Experiences in Diversified Leisure Activities (VADL) in partnership with the project More Than Football (MQF). We aimed to investigate the educational processes of group music making in the community project VADL-MQF, which is based on the actions of Human Motricity (Manuel Sérgio), Existential Phenomenology (Maurice Merleau-Ponty), Ecology of Knowledges (Boaventura de Sousa Santos) and Dialogical Pedagogy (Paulo Freire). We had twenty-three meetings: twenty-one days between March 13 and June 7, 2018, when we first presented the idea and built a collective musical practice to play percussion instruments, and did appreciation, movement and score reading activities; a meeting on June 10, 2018, related to a conversation circle and musical performance with family members, participants and educators; and a meeting on September 22, 2019, when we re-encountered participants, family members and educators to talk about data analysis. Opting for a qualitative research with phenomenological approach to data collection and analysis, all these meetings had audiovisual recordings enabling a rigorous transcription of the speeches of participants. The diaries have descriptive and reflective elements. About the analysis, we first identified and highlighted the meaning units, a moment called ideographic analysis, to later group these units by thematic proximity. With this nomothetic analysis, we come to the following categories: A) “Let's go to music, right? Because this is my strength!”- Knowing and acknowledging each other; B) “Oh, I will teach you, ok? First we start here and then we go here”- Teaching and learning from each other; C) “Right on!” - Choosing and matching. The findings are related to educational processes related to the recognition of others through musical practice, autonomy of acting and teaching and democratic experience were highlighted.

Introduction: health professionals’ compliance to Standard and Specific Precautions is essential to prevent transmission of microorganisms, but it is known that this compliance is still very small. Strategies that favor interferences within one or more components of this system may increase professionals’ compliance to good precautionary practices. Objective: To evaluate the effect of an educational strategy on precautionary practices in the context of primary health care. Method: multiple design project: to elaborate and to validate the educational strategy (webquest) for nursing professionals in this scenario by using the methodological study of validation by consensus; a qualitative study in order to acknowledge the perception of local Primary Attention Managers’ regarding the educational strategy as well as to what work as facilitators and what work as barriers for the implementation; a randomized controlled trial of the pre-test / post-test kind, using a control group with no blinding, and following CONSORT standards to assess the effect of the educational strategy and its potential to interfere with adherence to precautionary practices in the studied context; and lastly a descriptive study to evaluate the practicability of the webquest. What was used for the analysis: a content validation index, frequency tables and descriptive statistics, a Pearson's chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, a Mann-Whitney test, and Repeated Measures (ANOVA). Results: The webquest was validated, with an index of content validation greater than 80; regarding the perception of Primary Attention Managers, knowing their opinion facilitated the initial stage of implementation and directed the future stages of the study; during the assessment of the webquest’s effect, there was a significant difference (p <0.05) for risk identification, hand hygiene, use of masks and cough etiquette, and referred compliance, with better results within the intervention group. After six months, there was a reduction in the average of correct answers for the instrument as a whole and in relation to the use of cough mask and etiquette; as for practicality, the average time taken to perform it was 32.48 minutes, and was pointed out as easy to perform and the resolution and the topics as easy to understand by 96% of the professionals. Conclusion: the educational strategy was validated for large-scale use in the Primary Health Care setting as it increased the knowledge of the nursing staff and referred their compliance, highlighting its importance for incorporating evidence into practice, thus contributing for the improvement of care quality.

Phosphates and tungstates are important compounds and known mainly for their photocatalytic and photoluminescent properties. The present work proposes a study of the structural, morphological and photoluminescent properties of the materials: Ag3PO4 electron beam irradiated and femtosecond laser, and Ag2-2xZnxWO4 (0≤ x ≤ 0.25) modified with different concentrations of Zn+ obtained by the method of co-precipitation. The obtained phases were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence measurements. The main results investigated for the irradiated Ag3PO4 crystals show that XRD diffraction data show that the patterns for the non-irradiated and similar electron-irradiated samples, while the femtosecond laser-irradiated sample has a higher resolution XRD pattern, low, showing a higher structural disturbance at long range. For the Raman and Rietveld Spectra they show that both [PO4] and [AgO4] are distorted clusters, being the Ag-O bonds of agglomerates [AgO4] more labile than the P-O bonds of clusters [PO4]. In addition, a distinct growth and size mechanism was observed in the production of metallic Ag. For Ag2WO4, the results showed that the increase of Zn concentration in the microcrystals in the α-Ag2WO4 host matrix caused a morphological transformation and a shift of the electronic and optical properties. And regarding the photuluminescent properties of the α-Ag2WO4 and α-Ag2-2xZnxWO4 microcrystals are explained by the effects of distortions and oxygen vacancies (V_O^x) on clusters [WO6] and [AgOy] (y = 2, 4, 6 and 7) respectively causing a redshift.

For some years researches has been adressing the replacement of part of the cement used in concrete and mortars with alternative materials such as ground glass powder. This alternative reduces 〖CO〗_2, emissions since it’s used a smaller portion of concrete. In order for this substitution to be considered viable and applicable on the market, several factors and possible problems that this incorporation may result should be examined. One of the problems that can compromise the durability of concrete is the Alkali-Aggregate Reaction. This reaction causes expansion and fissure of concrete elements, by the chemical reaction between the reactive aggregate, alkaline concrete ions and hydroxyl ions, in the presence of moisture. So, this work aims to evaluate the effect of the incorporation of ground glass powder into cementied composites in the Alkali-Aggregate Reaction. Cementious composites were made with CPV cement, active silica, additives, sand with a maximum dimension of 1.2 mm, water (water/cement ratio of 0.18) and incorporation of glass powder in the contents of 0%,10%,20%,30% and 50% in volumetric replacement to cement. Tests were performed to characterize cementitious composites, axial compression resistance, capillarity water absorption, tensile strength by diametric compression, tensile strength in flexion, static elasticity module and dynamic. Expansion tests were performed in mortar bars by the accelerated method in order to evaluate the mitigation of expansions. The results show that the incorporation of glass powder did not interfere in the workability of the mixture in the fresh state, and reduced the air content incorporated into the mixture. There was an improvement in the mechanical and physical properties of cementitious composites from 28 days, such as a decrease in water absorption by capillarity and resistance to axial compression, obtaining the highest value for composite with 30% of glass powder in 129.03 MPa and high elasticity modules, in order of 45 to 50 GPa, characteristics of high performance concrete. Concerning the results found for cementitious composites with incorporation of glass powder, they reached values close to those of the reference material. Already for the specific tests of Alkali-Silica Reaction, it is noted that the contents of 10 and 20% of glass powder incorporation increased expansions in the mortar bars studied and the contents of 30 and 50% decreased to expansions, reaching dimensional variations close to 0%. Therefore, the behavior in the face of the Alkali-Silica Reaction varied according to the glass powder content of the mixtures. It was found that 30 and 50% of incorporation are the optimal substitution levels in relation to the alkali-silica reaction.

Alginate is a nontoxic, biocompatible polymer, that is easily obtainable. It can form gels through crosslinking when in contact with bivalent metal ions (ionic alginate gel) or through intermolecular bonds by exposure to a pH smaller than its monomers pKa (acid alginate gel). In the first part of this work, coreshell composites in the form of beads, were developed. These beads are composed of a mixture of acid and ionic alginate gel, with a novel phenomenon to alginate beads, those beads open, when exposed to neutral pH. The composites were characterized and their application as a pH-controlled release device was tested. In the controlled release tests, the methylene blue dye was used as a model molecule. In the second part of this work, the modulation of sodium alginate solubility, was made by the addition of an ester group in the chemical structure of the alginate. After esterification, the ester group was functionalized by the addition of a thiol group as proof of concept. The addition of the ether group promoted a modulation of the alginate solubility, making it soluble in organic solvents. In the last part of this work, polymers were used as a teaching object. Practical experiments using polymers were planned and applied with students, exposing the practical class protocol, its application with graduate students and the pedagogical results of these experiments. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness in the acquisition of knowledge and applicability in teaching of those protocols.
