Seeking to study innovative solar cell compositions with the goal to reach the highest energy efficiency level attainable, the aim of this study was to develop a route to obtain a solar cell composed by hybrid perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3) using a sequential deposition method through the techniques of spin-coating and immersion. Initially, the deposition of PbI2 thin film of was performed on a FTO/glass substrate coated with TiO2, which was subsequently converted into perovskite crystals through spin coating using a CH3NH3I solution. The influence of the PbI2 layer thickness on the formation of CH3NH3PbI3 crystals was evaluated. The hydrophilic characteristic of TiO2 affects the distribution of the crystals nucleation sites, since PbI2 possesses a non-polar liquid characteristic. The characterization of the perovskite thin films showed that thickness affects directly the bandgap and the surface morphology, revealing the presence of dendritic structures and acicular crystals. Both growth and coverage increased for thinner layers of PbI2. It was also possible to observe an increased uniformity in the film for smaller PbI2 layers.

This work investigated the effect of time on the carbonation reaction in synthetic saline solution, under mild conditions and with a controlled pH, aiming the mineral trapping of CO 2 on saline aquifers. The experiments were performed in a glass reactor at 40 °C, 6 hours and atmospheric pressure. The saline solution and solid phase were characterized by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (FAAS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). This work demonstrated that the saline solution pH lowers to approximately 7-8 in the first hour of reaction (initial pH of approximately 10), remaining constant until the end of the reaction. Through the analysis by AAS, it was found that the concentration of Ca ions in the brine decreases with time. A greatest reduction in the Ca ions concentration occurs within the first two hours of reaction, remaining constant in the others hours. The Mg concentration showed the trend of the final concentration remains close to initial concentration, even with the carbonates precipitation. SEM analysis indicated that the precipitates obtained had morphology similar to that found for various forms of calcium carbonate (i.e calcite and aragonite). FTIR analysis shows characteristic bands of carbonates, which agrees with the results of the analysis by SEM.

Graphite nanosheet (GNS) was prepared by physical/chemical method. The polyaniline (PANI)/graphite nanocomposites were synthesized by in situ polymerization of aniline monomer using different amounts (1 to 5 wt%) of graphite nanosheets. The formation of graphite nanosheets was confirmed by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). The surface morphology of exfoliated graphite and PANI/GNS nanocomposites were studied by the Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM). A device for electrical conductivity measurements was developed in this work and the results show that the conductivity of PANI/GNS is dependent of the GNS contents.

In this work we studied the Indirect Carbonation of concrete waste and steel slag in order to find the best conditions of each of then aims the CO 2 storage and find a useful destination of the waste. A complete study was developed with steel slag and the best results were adopted to concrete waste owing the expansion of construction industry in Brazil. The lixiviation with HCl acid, time, rate Liquid/Solid, temperature and concentration of acid was deep studied with a goal to use milder conditions avoiding energy penalty in the industrial process. Therefore a Calcium Carbonate was obtained and the feedstock could be re-used in the industries. The experiments were performed in a glass reactor at atmospheric pressure. The solutions and solid phases were characterized by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (FAAS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Inductively Coupled Plasma - Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES).

This work presents the synthesis of polypropylene/graphite nanocomposites by in situ polymerization using the catalytic system C 20 H 16 Cl 2 Zr ( rac -ethylenebis (indenyl)zirconium(IV)) dichloride/Methyoluminoxane (MAO). 60 nm graphite nanosheets (GNS) were obtained by means of the chemical exfoliation, thermal and ultrasound treatment. GNS previously treated with MAO were added into the reactor at percentages of 0.3, 1.0 and 2.2% (w/w) in relation to nanocomposite yields. The morphology of graphite nanosheets and nanocomposites was studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Moreover, the structural properties of natural graphite flake (NGF), graphite nanosheets (GNS) and nanocomposites were observed through the X-Ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).

Characteristics of both thermoplastic and thermoset composite materials as they pertain to marine vehicle applications are discussed. Comparison of various material selection factors such as strength, damage and moisture resistance, and flammability and toxicity as well as cost and availability of thermoset and thermoplastic composite materials are presented. Methods for testing and reducing the flammability and toxicity are discussed. Many commercially available composite systems are reported to provide favorable characteristics for marine applications. Although there seems to be a need for improved production technology for thermoplastics, they present potential advantages in physical properties over thermoset composites.

Titanium, “the wonder metal of the future” is rapidly becoming the metal of the seventies. The high strength to weight ratio, the excellent corrosion resistance in many aggressive environments, and good elevated temperature properties have resulted in the widespread use of titanium and its alloys, particularly in the aerospace and chemical industries. Titanium has demonstrated its superiority in sea water environments, yet the marine industry has been slow to utilize titanium's benefits. The intent of this paper is twofold—First to inform the marine industry on many advantages of titanium alloys for sea water use by describing properties and successful applications. Second, to show how susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking of certain titanium alloys, which became evident several years ago, is now understood and controllable. Well documented research has substituted knowledge for doubt and fear. Titanium and several titanium alloys are considered ready for use as engineeringmaterials in the marine industry. Today, they are competitive with nickel base alloys in cost. Naval architects and design engineers may now use titanium in certain applications to provide superior performance over traditional marine materials.
