The present study aims to evaluate the properties of a tile made from Copiúba waste (Goupia glabra Aubl) and vegetable polyurethane resin, with the effect of reducing waste from timber mills in the Amazon region, giving sawdust waste a viable and ecological destination. The initial tile density of 0.8 g/cm3 was used as parameters, with resin additions in a range of (15% to 30%) of the waste mass. The properties evaluated were: flexural strength, water absorption, swelling and permeability according to the prescriptions of ASTM-D1037 and NBR-13310/2005. The results demonstrate that tiles made with wood residue and vegetable resin suits to the normative parameters of tiles in terms of load capacity and water absorption, with performance proportional to the addition of resin to the mixture, thus making it viable to use this residue for production of ecological tiles.

摘要

The present study aims to evaluate the properties of a tile made from Copiúba waste (Goupia glabra Aubl) and vegetable polyurethane resin, with the effect of reducing waste from timber mills in the Amazon region, giving sawdust waste a viable and ecological destination. The initial tile density of 0.8 g/cm3 was used as parameters, with resin additions in a range of (15% to 30%) of the waste mass. The properties evaluated were: flexural strength, water absorption, swelling and permeability according to the prescriptions of ASTM-D1037 and NBR-13310/2005. The results demonstrate that tiles made with wood residue and vegetable resin suits to the normative parameters of tiles in terms of load capacity and water absorption, with performance proportional to the addition of resin to the mixture, thus making it viable to use this residue for production of ecological tiles.
