Of these, about 8% becomes waste, which is disposed improperly, resulting in environmental problems. In this context, studies aiming the reutilization of this waste, become viable both in the environmental context as in economic context. So the aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of the addition of different contents and sizes of cotton fiber waste generated from the sanding process: raw and functionalized waste, as reinforcement material in cement matrices CPP Special Class for oil wells. The fiber functionalization was made with the polyelectrolyte poly diallyl dimethyl ammonium (PDDACl) by imerção the waste in a solution containing 5% of PDDACl by mass of fiber, at 70 °C, for 30 minutes. The material was filtered and dried in an oven. TGA/DSC, FTIR, SEM and DRX analysis were performed to characterize the raw and functionalized fiber. Colorimetry techinique was also employed for measuring the effective functionalization of the fiber. Also, the waste's resistance to alkaline medium was evaluated. The splitting tension test (TCD) was used to evaluate the effect of the fiber on the mechanical behavior of the cement matrix.Fiber type: raw and functionalized; concentration: 0,5 and 1% and particle size: large (retained in 14 mesh sieve) and thin (through 28 mesh sieve) were evaluated in cement matrices with 7 days of setting time. The characterization showed that the residue consists almost exclusively of cellulose, as well as being highly resistant to alkaline environment. Colorimetric analysis after dyeing and washing of the residue, and SEM images showed that the PDDACl indeed adhered to the surface of the residue by physical adsorption. The results of the TCD tests indicate that resistance increases is proportional to the concentration of cellulosic waste used. The smaller residue also showed better results. For the functionalized residue, content of 0.5% resulted in a reduction of the mechanical properties, however, the use of 1% of functionalized residue showed the best results. The functionalized cotton fiber waste originating from the sanding process shows great potential for application in cement pastes for wells cementing, in view of the significant increase in splitting tension strength, even with a low content of the waste.Acesso AbertoResíduoFibra de algodãoProcesso de lixamentoCimentação de poços de petróleoInteração fibra-matrizmasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::QUIMICA
