All you need to know about acoustic sound-absorbing materials

If we talk about all the acoustic materials that are used for high-quality sound insulation of various types of premises, then they can be conditionally divided into sound-absorbing and sound-proof. Installation of sound-absorbing panels is necessary when there is a need to protect the premises from high noise levels, for example, in production. In addition, they are often used in those rooms in which it is necessary to create certain acoustic conditions, for example, recording studios or concert halls.

Given that such materials have a porous structure, they are able to absorb any sound waves, creating the necessary acoustic effect. Also, the energy of sound waves that is absorbed is converted into thermal energy due to the effect of friction.

To date, soft, hard and semi-rigid materials are widely available, each of which has its own type of structure. For example, if we talk about soft acoustic panels, they are made of mineral wool or fiberglass, so they are used in combination with perforated panels, which ensures high-quality sound absorption.

If we talk about porous materials, they are made from light mineral materials and are used to reduce extraneous sounds in rooms such as corridors or foyers.

As for semi-rigid materials, they have a porous surface covered with a film, which ensures their excellent acoustic performance. I would like to clarify that solid materials are produced in the form of plates and can have not only a different structure, but also a shade. From the foregoing, we can conclude that the type of material and its quantity are chosen purely on the effect to be achieved and on the type of room in which the materials will be installed.
