No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2022-01-01; Context: Urea is widely used in ruminant diets as a source of non-protein nitrogen (NPN), partially substituting for true protein in feed, but high levels of urea in the diet may cause toxicity. Aims: This study investigated the microencapsulation of urea in carnauba wax for slow release in the rumen to...
The interest in environmentally correct technologies has become a major concern, motivated, among many things, by the growth of social and environmental awareness. In this context, vegetable fibers emerge as major candidates, as ecological and economical alternatives to replace synthetic fibers derived from non-renewable sources.The bamboo fibers are perfectly adequate for this trend: they are long, have high s...
The extraction of plant fibers nanocelulose is an example of the growing search for more sustainable materials with good performance and quality. In this work, was extracted nanocelulose bamboo fibers that are rich in cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. After some tests, detected high abundance of cellulose, and the accompanying guidance in the areas of bamboo internodes. Therefore, the aim objective is to ext...
This paper describes the characterization of rigid pipes of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), manufactured with recycled resin derived from industrial waste reprocessing and/or sanitary. The recycled pipe was characterized using the techniques of X-ray Diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry (TG / DTG), vibrational spectroscopy absorption Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and tensile testing. The diffraction pattern reveal...
Titanate nanotubes (TiNTs) with the chemical composition Na2Ti3O7.nH2O (NaTiNT) were obtained through a hydrothermal method in highly alkaline medium. Protonated titanates nanotubes (H-TiNTs), with the composition H2Ti3O7.nH2O, were prepared by ion exchange reaction through a suspension of Na2Ti3O7nH2O nanotubes in HCl medium, promoting the exchange of Na+ ions by H+. Both Na2Ti3O7.nH2O and H2Ti3O7.nH2O produc...
The work shows the energy potential of blends of sugarcane bagasse with the mango tree and cashew tree's pruning. The samples were characterized by gross calorific value, density, proximate analysis (moisture, ash, volatile matter and fixed carbon), elemental analysis and thermogravimetry. The blends were prepared with different mass fractions. After evaluation of the samples qualitative and quantitative analys...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-09-01; Maltodextrin (DE 20) and gelatin (4:1, w/w, respectively) were investigated as encapsulant materials for lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus DC. Stapf) essential oil microencapsulation by freeze-drying. Three formulations were prepared: M1 (5% essential oil), M2 (10% essential oil), and M3 (15% essential oi...
Pesquisas na área do Ensino de Química vêm se expandindo além dos muros das escolas dando início ao ensino informal, onde a preocupação é divulgar a Ciência, encantar e atrair os jovens para o conhecimento científico. Dentre as metodologias empregadas encontra-se o teatro científico, unindo aspectos lúdicos das artes cênicas com conceitos científicos. Nesta perspectiva, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo cr...

O presente trabalho apresenta o estudo da síntese e caracterização estrutural de uma nova benzoxazina obtida a partir do guaiacol, composto cuja estrutura aromática é reconhecida como uma unidade representativa da molécula da lignina, enquadrando-se como fonte renovável e, desta forma, em concordância com os princípios da Química Verde. As benzoxazinas são compostos heterocíclicos que apresentam em sua estrutur...
