    The characterization studies of tailings from mining are crucial for the development of its reuse processes and the reduction of impacts caused by its conditioning on the earth’s surface. This study characterizes the magnetic tailings from phosphate-rock processing using X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and quantitative electron microscopy techniques. Samples were obtained from the magnetic tailings deposit of a mining company in the Alto Paranaíba region, Minas Gerais. The tailings are mainly composed of hematite/magnetite (74.92%), ilmenite (8.91%), fluorapatite (8.8%), anatase (3.07%), calcite (1.67%), goethite (1.62%), and quartz (1.02%). The particle size of the tailings is smaller than that specified for the production of sinter feed. The hematite/magnetite phase is strongly associated with ilmenite and fluorapatite. New stages of comminution and separation are needed due to the low degree of liberation of these minerals for a possible reuse of the components.

    Economic viability and eco-friendliness are important characteristics that make implants available to the pop- ulation in a sustainable way. In this work, we evaluate the performance of a low-cost, widely available, and eco- friendly material (talc from soapstone) relative to reduced graphene oxide as reinforcement to brittle hy- droxyapatite coatings. We employ a low-cost and straightforward technique, electrodeposition, to deposit the composite coatings on the titanium substrate. Corrosion, wear, and biocompatibility tests indicate that the reduced graphene oxide can be effectively replaced by talc without reducing the mechanical, anticorrosion, and biocompatible composite coatings properties. Our results indicate that talc from soapstone is a promising ma- terial for biomedical applications.

    Development and characterization of titanium dioxide ceramic substrates with high dielectric permittivities.
    (2020) Freitas, Antonio Evangelista de; Manhabosco, Taíse Matte; Batista, Ronaldo Junio Campos; Rêgo Segundo, Alan Kardek; Araujo, Humberto Xavier de; Araujo, Fernando Gabriel da Silva; Costa, Adilson Rodrigues da
    Titanium dioxide substrates have been synthesized by means of solid-state reactions with sintering temperatures varying from 1150 ◦C up to 1350 ◦C. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) where employed to investigate the crystal structure, grain size and porosity of the resulting samples. The obtained ceramics are tetragonal (rutile phase) with average grain sizes varying from 2.94 µm up to 5.81 µm. The average grain size of samples increases with increasing temperature, while the porosity decreases. The effect of microstructure on the dielectric properties has been also studied. The reduction of porosity of samples significantly improves the dielectric parameters (relative dielectric permittivity and loss tangent) in comparison to those of commercial substrates, indicating that the obtained ceramic substrates could be useful in the miniaturization of telecommunication devices.
