RESUMO

A growing concem about environmental and social subject justified the use of the vegetable~ wastes in the manufacture constructive elements. This study investigated the vegetable wast<: composite with polymer-modified cement to manufacture hollow blocks. Severa! mixture~ were composed of Portland cement types 11, 111 and V, treated vegetable residue, from fow species: Euca/yptus grandis, Pinus caribaea, Oriza sativa (rice husk) and Agave sisa/ant (sisal); small aggregate (washed sand), stone powder, latex type polymer styrene-butadiem rubber (SBR), acetate-vinyl versatato (P A V22), CaCh additive and an adequate water ratio fOI the mixtures. The evaluation of compatibility between vegetable wastes and Portland cemenl was done by methodology of the evolution heat hydration. The composite was characterizec based on mortar tests carried out according to ABNT standards to determine its mechanica: behavior, workability and water absorption by capillarity. Non destructive tests (NDT) wen utilized to evaluate the hardening of the composites during the first 28 aging days. The fina! characterization utilized a methodology to determinate porosity and permeability by nitroger gas intrusion, thermal conductivity and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the: composites microstructures. The characterization of the hollow blocks consisted in the: determination of compressive strength, water absorption, humidity ratio and liquid area. The: results of compressive strength and water absorption showed that the vegetables wastes can be: adequate to manufacture hollow blocks, according to the normalization tests to blocks withou structural function. The rnicrographics from SEM presented the impregnation polymer oveJ the vegetable wastes and hydration products, with a polymeric film formed, contributing to the: impermeability of the composites
