Estudi de la degradació de materials de canvi de fase d’origen vegetal per a la millora de la eficiència energètica en sistemes actius
Treballs Finals de Grau de Química, Facultat de Química, Universitat de Barcelona, Any: 2019, Tutores Ana Inés Fernández Renna, Camila Barreneche GuerisoliNowadays, sustainability is one of the most important fields of research due to the importance of making a profitable use of the planet resources. In many fields are working to develop new ways to improve energy efficiency. This is the case of development in phase change materials, a type of chemical substances which contribute to a better efficiency of the thermal energy storage in systems like buildings or refrigerate compartments.
There are different materials that can be used as phase change materials, but bio-based materials are very interesting to overcome those made by fossil fuel, for their sustainable characteristics. However, bio-based PCM commercially distributed have been not investigated in deep and due to the lack of investigation on them, these phase change materials implementation in actual buildings is low. One of the principle problems of these materials is the lack of information about their degradation towards daily thermal conditions in a real building.
This work focuses in the study of degradation of two fatty acids used as PCM, capric acid and myristic acid, in order to evaluate if their structure or their thermo-physical properties change after two different types of thermal treatments which try to reproduce the daily conditions of a building.
Some similar investigations have been previously done on fatty acids degradation, but they focused characterization on infrared spectroscopy, not being able to determinate a structural change on the fatty acids molecules. In this work, further characterization is done, such as DSC and TGA to analyse thermo-physical properties, rheometry to determinate changes in viscosity, and gas chromatography with mass spectrometer detector to obtain better results in structural characterization
Educación artística : plástica y visual : contenidos, actividades y recursos
Todas las obras de la colección son libros de hojas cambiables que cuentan con una actualización periódica de tres entregas al añoSe dan aspectos generales para la reflexión sobre las dimensiones psicopedagógicas y curriculares referidas a la educación secundaria obligatoria y en concreto sobre la educación visual y plástica. Se abordan los siguientes contenidos: comunicación visual, representación, lenguajes y proyectos, arte, estética y estudios culturales, patrimonio, museo y entorno. Éstos se desarrollan a través de distintas unidades que siguen el siguiente esquema: presentación del tema, selección y secuenciación de contenidos, desarrollo de la propuesta y recursos de intervención. Se ofrece la organización de la actividad y materiales para el profesor y para los alumnos. Las actividades y materiales que se sugieren se han experimentado previamente, adaptados a la edad y concebidos para aplicar inmediatamente en el aula orientados a favorecer la implicación del alumno.CataluñaES
