Wall absorbers or so-called wall insulation can be attached to walls such as home walls, factory walls, office walls, and other buildings to adequately attenuate various noises that can occur. , A term for insulation that is fully damped.
Today, many large companies, factories, home remodeling, music studios, or various other commercial buildings and locations use wall-mounted dampers to keep the atmosphere comfortable and undisturbed by excessive noise.
Material for Wall Insulation to Reduce Noise
Good wall attenuator insulation should be made of polyester material and is eco-friendly as the soundproofing function is more efficient. Soundproofing material itself can be divided into two types: soundproofing material and sound absorbing material.
Do you think that the soundproofing material and the sound absorbing material are the same or different?
In the world of noise reduction, we often hear the word “silencer”. Is that the correct word?
Commonly known noise protection consists of adding a silencer to the room. Even if the use of the word silencer for soundproofing is not completely correct.
Soundproofing comes from the word sound and proofing. “Proofing” itself means reducing. Therefore, soundproofing means a material that reduces noise. Whether it’s reducing noise or reducing room echo.
Soundproofing Material
Soundproof material is a material that can block (block) the intrusion of sound into and out of the room. The wall made of soundproof material can withstand the intrusion of sound into other rooms, so there is no noise from the sound source in other rooms.
Insulation material is very heavy, non-porous, has a hard surface and is viscoelastic. Examples of soundproofing materials include Acourete Noise Armor, Red Brick, Iron Plate, and Acourete Paint EZ1.
Sound Absorbing Material
Next, the sound absorbing material will be explained. Absorbing here means absorbing sound from the sound source to reduce room noise.
Not all sound is absorbed by the absorber. When the sound hits the sound absorbing material, the sound is absorbed and partially transmitted. Therefore, if you need a sound-absorbing material that can reduce external noise so that it does not enter the room, use a sound-absorbing material instead. This is not appropriate. The absorber features a light, porous and soft surface. Examples of these materials include acurete board, follicle foam, rock wool, acolete fiber and so on.
As shown below, these two materials are often combined for good performance. However, the above two materials can be combined to obtain a good sound insulation partition wall system. Insulation must block incoming sound, and sound absorbers must absorb the remaining sound energy that is not blocked by the insulation. These combination will give the best result compared when you install only just one. However, note that installing those two combined will cost you a lot more money.
Well those are the deeper knowledge about the soundproofing material and sound absorbing material. If you are about to install wall insulation to reduce noise and etc., make sure you know the type of material that will be installed. Using correct material will enhance the proofing feature, or absorbing feature that will make your home or studio is protected and felt professional.
