A utilização das tecnologias e seus recursos digitais na sociedade exercem cada vez mais importantes papeis no dia a dia das pessoas e na educação. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar as contribuições do uso das tecnologias de informação no processo de ensino-aprendizagem em química pelos alunos do ensino médio de uma escola pública da rede estadual de União-PI. Os resultados apontam que a maioria dos alunos entrevistados (85%) consideram importante aprender química usando as (TICs). Percebe-se então que há a necessidade de se aderir a uma prática além da baseada nos princípios básicos educacionais, no qual se busca também inserir a prática motivacional, com uso de metodologias e recursos tecnológicos diversificados para que haja a integração do ensino de química baseado no cotidiano e nas mudanças da sociedade, para que o processo ensino aprendizagem tenha resultados positivos e significativos. Palavras-chave: Tecnologias de informação; Recursos tecnológicos; Metodologia do ensino de Química; Ensino-aprendizagem; Práticas pedagógicas.
In recent years, anthocyanins, natural dyes, have promoted great scientific and technological interest. Their intrinsic antioxidant properties and health benefits make them ideal representatives of natural dyes as replacements for synthetic dyes. However, their instability can limit their use. A promising strategy to increase the color stability of anthocyanins is their interaction with clay minerals structures. Clay minerals have characteristics favorable to the stabilization of natural dyes, such as adsorption capacity, good surface chemistry, ion exchange capacity, abundance, non-toxicity, and environmental compatibility. This review summarizes relevant works that present different clays or clay minerals as robust inorganic matrices for incorporation, improved stability, and increased resistance against the thermal- and photodegradation of anthocyanins. In addition, several authors propose different applications for the formed anthocyanin-based hybrids.
Annatto dye is a natural organic dye belonging to carotenoids, whose main components are bixin and norbixin. Due to its low stability, it is convenient to protect the dye molecules with other materials. The use of clay minerals is an alternative, which are phyllosilicates with attractive physico-chemical properties, such as high specific surface area, cation exchange capacity, mechanical/chemical stability and non-toxicity. The main purpose of this work was to develop hybrid materials, using annatto dye and clay mineral modified with different inorganic cations, and then, to evaluate the stability of the new pigments. The process of preparing the modified clay minerals involved mixing a synthetic montmorillonite in solutions containing the precursor salts of the metal cations. Subsequently, the dye was dissolved in a solution containing water and alcohol, followed by filtration and mixed with the modified clay, giving rise to the hybrid pigments. Through the characterizations, it was noted that a variety of colors were obtained, and the sample containing aluminum was the one that most adsorbed the dye and showed a significant increase in stability at high temperatures. This hybrid material was better to dye than its pure form. Therefore, the bixin/montmorillonite pigments are promising for replacing artificial colors in practical applications such as in the cosmetics, food or pharmaceutical industries.
Anthocyanins are one of the natural pigments that humanity has employed the most and can substitute synthetic food dyes, which are considered toxic. They are responsible for most purple, blue, and red pigment nuances in tubers, fruits, and flowers. However, they have some limitations in light, pH, oxygen, and temperature conditions. Combining biomolecules and inorganic materials such as clay minerals can help to reverse these limitations. The present work aims to produce materials obtained using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide in bentonite clay for incorporation and photostabilization of anthocyanin dye. Characterizations showed that the organic molecules were intercalated between the clay mineral layers, and the dye was successfully incorporated at a different pH. Visible light-driven photostability tests were performed with 200 h of irradiation, confirming that the organic–inorganic matrices were efficient enough to stabilize the quinoidal base form of anthocyanin. The pigment prepared at pH 10 was three-fold more stable than pH 4, showing that the increase in the synthesis pH promotes more stable colors, probably due to the stronger intermolecular interaction obtained under these conditions. Therefore, organobentonite hybrids allow to stabilize the fragile color coming from the quinoidal base form of anthocyanin dyes.

O presente trabalho apresenta uma análise dos trabalhos publicados na linha temática Tecnologia da Informação e Comunicação no Ensino (TIC) nos anais do Encontro Nacional de Ensino de Química (ENEQ), entre 2008 a 2018. Esta pesquisa é de caráter bibliográfico e tem como objetivo apresentar um levantamento dos trabalhos publicados na temática TIC nas últimas seis edições do ENEQ, visando mapear e analisar como a temática vem sendo debatida na área de ensino de Química. Observou-se que, ao longo das edições, houve um aumento expressivo de pesquisadores que sinalizam para novas discussões e debates no meio acadêmico e científico acerca da temática TIC como possibilidade educacional no ensino de Química no decorrer dos encontros. Além disso, foram apresentados, ainda, os níveis de ensino em que eram abordadas as pesquisas. Foi possível identificar que a temática TIC está cada vez mais presente nas salas de aulas e alcança diferentes níveis de escolaridade, do Ensino Fundamental aos cursos de ensino superior.
