ResumoO edifício que abriga atualmente o Museu foi residência do jurista, escritor e político brasileiro Rui Barbosa de Oliveira e está localizado no bairro de Botafogo na cidade do Rio de Janeiro tombado pelo IPHAN. A construção data de 1850 e seu valor não se delimita apenas por ter abrigado Ruy Barbosa, mas também por ter sido cenário de grandes eventos sociais e políticos da época. O objetivo do presente trabalho é a caracterização de argamassas históricas do Museu Casa Rui Barbosa, por meio de análises petrográficas, mineralógicas, químicas, físicas, térmicas, granulométricas e reconstituição do traço usando método Teutonico, o mais difundido para argamassas históricas à base de cal. Todas as análises apresentaram resultados extremamente consistentes quanto à composição da argamassa. Por diferentes técnicas foi possível constatar que a maior parte das amostras analisadas é composta por areia (quartzo) e cal (calcita). As amostras também apresentaram outros minerais, em menor quantidade, como caulinita, microclina (feldspato) e muscovita (filossilicato). Foi possível ainda visualizar na microscopia óptica os minerais detectados pelo método de difração de raios-X com bastante definição de imagem. Quanto aos testes físicos, as argamassas apresentaram massa específica aparente seca 1,6 kg.m-³ e saturada de 1,9kg.m-³, enquanto a média de porosidade de 25% e absorção de água de 15%. Durante a caracterização térmica todas as argamassas apresentaram perfil de degradação similar e as maiores perdas de massa aconteceram em temperaturas acima de 600ºC, na faixa de decomposição do material carbonáceo (cerca de 8% em média). Além disso, a análise granulométrica apresentou curva característica de material rico em areia, corroborando com todas as outras análises. Sendo que, grande parte dessas partículas, está entre 0,6 e 2,0mm, sendo, portanto, areia grossa. A maioria das amostras apresentou a relação areia:cal de 4:1, mas também havia amostras com 1:1, 2:1 e 3:1. Mostrando assim que a relação areia:cal não é constante em todo o Museu, independente da fachada. Palavras Chave: argamassas históricas, caracterização, Museu Casa de Rui Barbosa  AbstractTECNOLOGIC CHARACTERIZATION OF HISTORICAL MORTARS FROM CASA RUI BARBOSA MUSEUM. The building that currently houses the Museum was the residence of a lawyer, a Brazilian writer and politician Ruy Barbosa de Oliveira and is located in Botafogo in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The Museum was built 1850 and its value not only defines for having sheltered Ruy Barbosa, but also for having been the scene of major social and political events of the time. The aim of this work is the characterization of historical mortars Museum Casa Rui Barbosa, using petrographic, mineralogical, chemical, physical, thermal, particle size analysis and reconstitution of the trace with Teutonico method, the most common for lime based mortar. All analyzes showed very consistent results regarding the composition of the mortar. For various techniques, the samples are composed of sand (quartz) and lime (calcite). The samples also showed other minerals, in smaller quantities, such as kaolinite, microcline (feldspar) and muscovite (phyllosilicate). The minerals detected by diffraction method of X-rays was possible observed by microscopy analysis. During the physical testing, the mortars showed apparent density 1.6 kg.m-³for saturated and 1.9 kg.m-³ for dry while the average porosity of 25% and 15% water absorption. The thermal characterization showed a similar degradation curve for all mortars and higher mass losses occurred at temperatures above 600°C, in the range of decomposition of the carbonaceous material (about 8% on average). Furthermore, the particle size analysis showed characteristic curve rich material sand, confirming others analyzes. Most of these particles is between 0.6 and 2.0mm, and therefore, sand (high diameter). Most samples showed the ratio sand:lime 3:1, but there were samples with 1:1, 2:1 and 4:1. It can be concluded through those ratios sand: lime is not constant throughout the museum, regardless of the façade.Keywords: historical mortar, characterization, Casa Rui Barbosa Museum.

Objective: This study aimed to prepare and characterize anti-acne ethosomes using the cold- and thin-layer hydration methods.Methods: A sonication step was included during ethosome preparation to improve the quality of the cold method. Azelaic acid, Phospholipon 90G,ethanol, propylene glycol, and phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) were used in the procedures. Prepared ethosomal suspensions were characterized usingtransmission electron microscopy, particle-size analysis, and spectrophotometry.Results: Ethosomes prepared using the thin-layer hydration method (F1) had small unilamellar vesicles, while those prepared using the cold methodwith 15-min sonication (F4) showed spherical, elliptical, unilamellar, and multilamellar vesicles. F1 ethosomes had a Dmean volume of 648.57±231.26,whereas those prepared using the cold method with 5- (F2), 10- (F3), and 15-min (F4) sonication had Dmean volumes of 2734.04±231.49 nm,948.90±394.52 nm, and 931.69±471.84 nm, respectively. Polydispersity indices of F2, F3, and F4 ethosomes were 0.74±0.21, 0.86±0.05, and 0.91±0.03,respectively, with a poor particle-size distribution, compared to that of F1 (0.39±0.01). Zeta potentials of F1–F4 ethosomes were −38.27±1.72 mV,−23.53±1.04 mV, −31.4±1.04 mV, and −34.3±1.61 mV, respectively. Entrapment efficiencies of F1–F4 ethosomes were 90.71±0.11%, 53.84±3.16%,72.56±0.28%, and 75.11±1.42%, respectively.Conclusion: Anti-acne ethosomes produced using the thin-layer hydration method had superior properties than those produced using the coldmethod with 15-min sonication.

Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) powder was synthesized by a simple heating process involving simple chemical reaction. The characterization of the produced powder showed that the powder is nanosize with particle in the range of 30-70 mm in diameter and almost evenly spherical in shape. The powder also has a high surface area of 43.16 m2/g. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) observation showed the crystallite and particle size become bigger with an increment of calcination temperature, indicating increasing of crystallinity.. FESEM observation showed the particle size become bigger with an increment of calcinations temperature. It is in agreement with the crystallite size analysis, obtained by Scherer’s formula and particle size analysis, measured by nanoSizer. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infra Red Spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses exhibited the same result, where HA phase was clearly observed at at various temperatures up to 600 ̊C. However, at temperature more than 600 ̊C, Tri calcium phosphate (TCP) phase appeared suppressing the HA phase, producing biphasic calcium phosphate.

Slip is a semifluid clayey type of material used in the ceramic industry for coating earthware products, such as bricks and tiles, thus providing distinct surface colors or patterns. In the present work a characterization was conducted to identify the mineralogical as well the chemical and physical properties of geological materials existing in the slip used by industries in the north region of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The basic natural materials composing a slip, namely clay and kaolin, are responsible for changes not only the slip plasticity but also in its viscosity and adhesion to the surface of the ceramic piece. The slip characterization was performed in terms of particle size analysis, Atterberg limits and actual grain density. The chemical composition was obtained by X-ray fluorescence and the thermal properties by differential thermal analysis. The results indicated that marked differences exist between slip from distinct origins. A few slip samples failed to present the required properties.

The mono-dispersed Co3O4 nano-particles were prepared by means of solid phase synthetical method. The particle size, specific surface area, crystal structure and morphology of the samples were characterized by laser particle size analysis, x-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively. The catalytic effects of nano-particles on the combustion of fuel rich propellant were investigated. The results show that the Co3O4 nano-particles prepared are uniform and with relatively wide size distribution curve. The catalytic effect of Co3O4 nano-particles on the fuel rich propellant is stronger than those of micro-sized Co3O4 particles and CuO nano-particles.
