Preparation and characterization of bionanocomposites based on protein and cellulose nanocrystals by continuous casting
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-12-11)
This Ph.D. thesis covers the production and characterization of gelatin-cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) bionanocomposite films intended for multifunctional food packaging. The up-scalability of the gelatin/CNCs films was ...
Cristalização e relaxação em vidros óxidos uma tentativa de solução do Paradoxo de Kauzmann
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-09-03)
The quest for a solution to Kauzmann’s Paradox has been a lifelong
journey for many glass scientists over the last seventy years. The idea that this
paradox may violate the Third Law of Thermodynamics is ...
Influência dos contornos de grãos nas propriedades elétricas de hematita policristalina modificada com diferentes elementos químicos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2020-03-13)
The use of molecular hydrogen produced by photoelectrochemical cells is an alternative to fossil fuels, economically and environmentally. Hematite (α-Fe2O3) is a promising candidate to the realization of photoelectrochemical ...
On-line FTIR spectroscopy system for extrusion-based process analysis
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-11-11)
Polymer processing is a fundamental key to achieve the desired properties to reach the needs of polymer applications. Thus, it is important to understand how the processing can contribute to material characteristics during ...
Efeito do tamanho e distribuição de tamanho inicial das partículas da hematita, na cinética de sinterização assistida por micro-ondas
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2021-11-26)
This thesis aimed to study the effect of the initial particle size and its
distribution of hematite on microwave-assisted sintering kinetics. Two synthesis
methods were used: sol-gel and seeded-mediated growth. By sol-gel ...
Modelagem numérica do perfil térmico e do escoamento de material termoplástico por extrusão em um cabeçote customizado para manufatura aditiva
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2024-04-10)
This work presents a procedure for modeling and numerical analysis of the flow of a thermoplastic fluid with pseudoplastic behavior applied to a custom miniature vertical head based on twin-screw extrusion for additive ...
Síntese de nanopartículas de CuO e aplicações catalíticas
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2024-03-28)
Global population growth, reaching 8 billion people in November 2022, will continue to impose significant pressures on industrial production, agriculture, urban mobility, and energy demand. Coupled with the depletion of ...
Caracterização reo-óptica da interação entre desenovelamento e desenrosco de cadeias poliméricas em fluxo cisalhante
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2024-07-04)
Rheo-optical studies involve monitoring the flow of polymers by measuring their optical properties. In the case of pure polymeric fluids, flow birefringence can be used to quantify the molecular chain orientation. This ...
Fracture of refractories at room and elevated temperatures analyzed with wedge splitting tests and image correlation
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2024-02-20)
Industrial high-temperature processes relies on castable refractories, whose formulation and characterization become crucial for minimizing energy loss and costs. Increasing the failure predictability is key to reducing ...
Vitrocerâmicas de silicato de lítio com gradientes microestruturais - simulações e experimentos
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2022-08-08)
The microstructure of glass-ceramics (GCs) depends on their chemical
composition and thermal history, from the cooling of the precursor glass to the
heat treatments. In glass production, the cooling rate on the surface ...
