Abstract in Portuguese
O trabalho propõe um método para a avaliação expedita da durabilidade de produtos de PVC rígido expostos às intempéries em fachadas ou outras aplicações de construção civil. O método baseia-se na exposição acelerada de corpos de prova de PVC em câmara de ultravioleta (CUV). Demonstra-se a aceitabilidade desse procedimento por comparação de 3000 horas de exposição em CUV com cinco anos de exposição natural em Piracicaba, SP. Foram comparadas propriedades físicas e químicas de dezenove formulações que diferiam entre si pelos modificadores de impacto, estabilizadores e teores de aditivação (com dióxido de titânio) utilizados. A análise da influência de cada um desses fatores nos dois tipos de envelhecimento dos diversos compostos permitiu o estabelecimento de critérios quantitativos para a rejeição de compostos inadequados, com base no valor inicial e na taxa de decréscimo da resistência ao impacto Charpy, determinada em 2000 horas de exposição em CUV.a

Abstract in English
A method is proposed for durability evaluation of unplasticized PVC building products, for outdoor applications. The method relies on accelerated weathering of PVC specimens in a fluorescent ultraviolet-condensation apparatus (QUV). The procedure is validated by comparison of 3000 h of QUV exposure to five years of outdoor exposure in Piracicaba, SP. Physical and chemical properties of nineteen compounds were compared. Impact modifiers, stabilizers and pigment content (titanium dioxide) varied among those base formulations. Analysis of the influence of each of these variables, for both weathering conditions, led to quantitative criteria for rejection of inadequate compounds, based upon the initial value and the rate of decrease of the Charpy impact strength, as determined after 2000 h of QUV exposure.
