Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/7586In this work it was produced composite isophthalic polyester, using red mud (RM) and fibers of carded curaua (FCC) randomly oriented and aligned with and without red mud. The composites were made by hand lay-up process and compression molding. Isophthalic polyester plates were produced composites with polyester matrix and composites with RM and RM and FCC. Physical, thermal and mechanical properties of the composites were evaluated. It was found that the increase in RM in 30% (v/v) improves the mechanical, thermal and physical properties of the composites. The addition of 25% (v/v) FCC and RM 5% (v/v) recovering at 84% the modulus of elasticity compared to composite with 10% (v/v) and 5% FCC RM. In composites with 5% FCC randomly oriented and 30% (v/v) RM has 29% recovery of the modulus of elasticity. In composites with 25% (v/v) shows RM to be effective flame retardancy. LV is the influence of the thermal conductivity of the composite isophthalic polyester with increased (92% to 0 ° C) (71% at 25 ° C) (69% at 50 °C) composites with 30% LV compared with the matrix. The red mud and curaua fiber may be important inputs in composite isophthalic polyester, for the production of panels, walls, doors and internal partitions for construction.Acesso AbertoCurauáAnanas erectifoliusPropriedade mecânicaResíduos industriaisTermofixoCompósitos termofixosProcesso BayerLama vermelhaMechanical propertyIndustrial wasteThermosetThermoset compositesBayer processRed mudInfluência do uso de resíduo do processo bayer nas propriedades térmicas e mecânicas de compósitos de base polimérica reforçados com fibra de curauá (Ananas lucidus.
