Resumo Estudos têm contribuído para a definição de importantes diretrizes acerca da conservação de documentos de arquivo e, em especial, a conservação preventiva, fomentando a discussão e a consolidação de políticas que busquem auxiliar na preservação dos acervos. Nessa perspectiva, a presente pesquisa, realizada em parceria entre o Instituto de Ciências Humanas e da Informação - curso de Arquivologia -, e a Escola de Química e Alimentos da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, tem como objetivo avaliar possíveis ações de danos provocados pelo uso das folhas autoadesivas nos documentos textuais em suporte papel, visando contribuir com as discussões e estudos sobre a temática de conservação e preservação dos acervos. A metodologia para o desenvolvimento deste trabalho foi dividida em etapas que consistiram em: seleção da amostragem e pesquisa sobre o surgimento dos blocos autoadesivos, revisão do referencial teórico, análise dos dados coletados través da técnica de microscopia eletrônica de varredura e posterior divulgação dos resultados da pesquisa.

Abstract Studies have contributed to the definition of important guidelines on the file record keeping and in particular preventive conservation fostering discussion and the consolidation of policies that seek to assist in the preservation of collections. In this perspective the present research, which is a work in partnership between the Institute of Humanities and information - Archivology course, and the School of Chemistry and Food, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, aims to evaluate possible actions deterioration caused by the use of self-adhesive sheets in textual paper documents, to contribute to discussions and studies on the theme of conservation and preservation of collections. The methodology for the development of this work has been divided into steps that were: the sample selection and research on the emergence of adhesive plates, review the theoretical framework, analysis of data collected slant electron microscopy technique and subsequent dissemination of research results.

Rhodium and platinum nanoparticles were supported in polymeric membranes with 10, 20 and 40 µm thickness. The polymeric membranes were prepared combining cellulose acetate and the ionic liquid (IL) 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (BMI.(NTf)2. The presence of metal nanoparticles induced an increase in the polymeric membrane surface areas. The increase of the IL content resulted in an improvement of elasticity and decrease in tenacity and toughness, whereas the stress at break was not affected. The presence of IL probably causes an increase in the separation between the cellulose molecules that result in a higher flexibility and processability of the polymeric membrane. The CA/IL/M(0) combinations exhibit an excellent synergistic effect that enhances the activity and durability of the catalyst for the hydrogenation of cyclohexene. The CA/IL/M(0) polymeric membrane displays higher catalytic activity (up to 7.353 h-1) for the 20 mm of CA/IL/Pt(0) and stability than the nanoparticles dispersed only in the IL.
