dc.description | The proposed study focuses on the research and development of a prototype composite material that incorporates corn husks as a reinforcing agent in a polymeric matrix, with the aim of offering a sustainable industrial alternative. The problem of corn husk waste in Ecuador is presented, where there is a high production of this agricultural waste and, in turn, a significant generation of plastic waste, which represents a significant environmental challenge. In this sense, there is an opportunity to use corn husks as a resource to improve the mechanical properties of polymeric products, thus contributing to the reduction of environmental impact and promoting the circular economy. The results of this research are expected to provide knowledge on the use of corn husks as reinforcement in polymeric matrices and their impact on the properties of composite materials. Furthermore, the developed prototypes are expected to demonstrate their technical and economic feasibility for possible application in industry. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | El estudio propuesto se centra en la investigación y desarrollo de un prototipo de material compuesto que incorpora cáscara de maíz como agente de refuerzo en una matriz polimérica, con el objetivo de ofrecer una alternativa industrial sostenible. Se presenta la problemática del desperdicio de cáscara de maíz en Ecuador, donde se evidencia una alta producción de este residuo agrícola y, a su vez, una importante generación de desechos plásticos, lo cual representa un desafío ambiental significativo. En este sentido, se plantea la oportunidad de aprovechar la cáscara de maíz como recurso para mejorar las propiedades mecánicas de los productos poliméricos, contribuyendo así a la reducción del impacto ambiental y promoviendo la economía circular. Se espera que los resultados de esta investigación aporten conocimientos sobre el uso de cáscaras de maíz como refuerzo en matrices poliméricas y su impacto en las propiedades de los materiales compuestos. Además, se espera que los prototipos desarrollados demuestren su viabilidad técnica y económica para su posible aplicación en la industria. | es_ES |
