These days, loud noises are some of the biggest annoyances that people cite. Do you want to improve the "protection" of sound in your house, music studio or place of business? Are you looking for noise protection?
Yes, the sound-absorbing materials are found in increasing numbers from music studios to homes and industrial environments. The three types of sound-absorbing materials we will examine here are: Sound-insulated curtains, Acoustic foam and Cork underlay. Let's look at all three.
Cork base
Have you ever been in a modern data center full of computers? If the data center was of any noticeable size, you were probably flooded by the noise generated there, both by computers and by cooling fans and air conditioners!
In such settings as well as at home, the use of cork underlayment can significantly reduce the amount of noise transmitted to the floor below. Typically, a sheet of cork underlay is installed under the tile floor or under the hard floor. It effectively absorbs both the thumping noise from walking and from the air conditioners as well as the "airborne" noise, the noise that spreads through the air. Cork underlay is a natural noise-absorbing material that has several advantages over man-made replacements.
Soundproof curtains
Were you aware that hospitals used soundproof curtains or soundproof curtains to protect patients from the nervous sounds from the equipment to be attached to the patient bed? When you are lying in bed, sick or recovering, it is definitely the last thing you want to hear loud, repetitive noises. Soundproof curtains will both attenuate and absorb the sound from the machines and direct the sound away from the patient or patients. That way, they will provide a more peaceful, healing environment.
This is just an example. sound absorbent panels UK curtains and sound-absorbing cloth are used in homes, music studios and industrial environments.
Acoustic foam
Acoustic foam or sound-absorbing foam is an effective sound-absorbing material. It is mostly used in music studios and other places where maximum sound absorption is desired. By using a special foam material, many, but especially high frequencies are absorbed efficiently. By further shaping the foam to assume a "spiky" or "wedgy" surface appearance, one increases the surface area of the foam and increases the absorption of sound. A good home application for acoustic foam is in a home theater.
