Item Study of mechanical, durability and microstructural properties of cementitious composite with addition of different iron ore tailings from Brazil.(2022) Almada, Bruna Silva; Melo, Henrique da Silva Silveira; Duarte, Marlo Souza; Aguilar, Maria Teresa Paulino de; Garcia, Dayana Cristina Silva; Silva, Guilherme Jorge Brigolini; Santos, White José dosBrazil is the second-largest global iron ore producer in the world. Consequently, a large volume of iron ore tailings (IOTs) is generated, which is associated with environmental impacts. IOTs present potential to be used as an addition in cementitious compounds, however, few studies assess how the heterogeneity of this waste can limit its utilization as a building material. Thus, the present study aims to assess whether the heterogeneity of IOTs influences mechanical, durability, and microstructural properties when added to the cementitious composite. Four IOTs samples from different origins were collected and added to cementitious composite at 40% addition content. Composites’ mechanical (compressive strength and modulus of elasticity) and durability properties (water absorption, porosity, electrical resistivity, carbonation, and pH pore solution) were correlated to the microstructure of the IOTs. Results showed that the IOTs from different mines exhibited different physical properties and chemical/mineralogical compositions. Moreover, the higher the degree of ore processing, the lower the heterogeneity, iron content, and specific gravity. Although the IOT samples are heterogeneous, this type of tailing can be used as a filler addition in structural mortars. IOT addition tends to improve the mechanical and durability properties. Heterogeneity most significantly influenced the properties in the fresh state, durability, and microstructural properties. The microstructure of the cement matrix tends to be denser in the IOT-added with higher SSA and silica content. Was observed higher-porosity in regions close to the interfacial transition zone in the samples with coarser IOT.Item Investigation on mechanical and microstructural properties of alkali-activated materials made of wood biomass ash and glass powder.(2021) Silva, Guilherme Jorge Brigolini; Santana, Vanessa Pereira; Wójcik, MartaThe possibility of the application of biomass fly ash (BFA) as a precursor material for the synthesis of alkaliactivated materials (AAM) is presented in this paper. Glass powder (GP) was tested as an additional substrate in a synthesis process. Different mixtures of samples were produced: four mixtures using only BFA for different NaOH concentrations and nine mixtures where BFA was partially replaced by the GP. Three different NaOH concentrations were applied here. Compressive and flexural strength after 7 and 14 days were performed. The microstructure and the chemical composition of samples were obtained. The results show that the compressive and flexural strength of materials increased with the increase of NaOH concentration and the decrease of the GP content in a mixture. The samples were also characterized by the high porosity with some voids and microcracks. The poorly dissolved BFA particles were also noted in a matrix.Item Assessment of the mechanical parameters of resin composites with the addition of various types of fibres.(2020) Dębska, Bernardeta; Lichołai, Lech; Silva, Guilherme Jorge Brigolini; Caetano, Marina AltoéThe article describes tests of epoxy mortars after the addition of fibres. The fibres were a substitute for sand in the amount of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% by volume, respectively. Three types of mortar were obtained, containing polypropylene, glass and carbon fibres, respectively. Statistical analyses (ANOVA) were carried out to assess the impact of fibre content on the mechanical properties of mortars. Brittle fracture toughness was also tested using the Cracked Straight Through Brazilian Disc method. The addition of each type of fibre improved the assessed parameters. Based on the obtained research results, and also due to availability and price, the most advantageous seems to be the production of composites containing the addition of polypropylene fibres.
