Influência do tipo de resina na fabricação de um compósito de reforço de resíduos de mármore

Abstract

One of the great problems faced in the current century are having a solid economy together with a healthy environment, whereas the great impasse is to make both of them move towards a single positive side. Thus, when idealizing this work, it was observed a great waste of material in marble shops that consequently affect the environment. The study, therefore, aims to reuse ornamental stone residues, especially those produced in marble, along with the use of epoxy and polyester resins to create an alternative material on the market. The efficiency of the two resins was compared, benefiting both marble and its waste, which instead of been thrown away, it would be sold and reused preserving the environment, as this was where a large part of this waste was disposed of. The study was done by comparing four experiments already carried out by different authors, where both reuse marble and granite residues for the creation of the composite, where each procedure is done in a divergent way, from the collection of the material to the manufacturing process of the products. specimens and through these comparisons observe which resin will present better results in the tests of mechanical resistance, analyzing its averages, dispersion of values and standard deviations. Obtaining as best results the experiments carried out with epoxy resin and as the concentration of marble and granite in its composition increases, the resistance of the material tends to fall, reaching excellent results in the production of the material, thus proving the effectiveness in the use of the composite.
