Acoustic Baffles

StarStarStarStar

Free-hanging absorbers used in large spaces to control echo and reverberation, improving speech intelligibility.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Composites

StarStarStarStar

Combines different materials with distinct acoustic properties to target a broad range of frequencies.

StarStarStarStar

Rubber Acoustic Materials

StarStarStarStar

Elastic materials that prevent sound transmission and reduce vibration due to their mass and flexibility.

StarStarStarStar

Microperforated Panels

StarStarStarStar

Panels with small holes that absorb sound due to the friction between air and the panel's surface.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Membranes

StarStarStarStar

Thin, flexible materials that react to sound waves, able to absorb low-frequency sounds when tensioned and placed over an airspace.

StarStarStarStar

Smart Acoustic Materials

StarStarStarStar

Materials that change their acoustic properties in response to an external stimulus, such as temperature, electric field, or stress.

StarStarStarStar

Fibrous Absorbers

StarStarStarStar

Materials that trap sound waves among fibers, converting the acoustic energy into heat.

StarStarStarStar

Porous Absorbers

StarStarStarStar

Materials that absorb sound through viscous and thermal interaction within the pores, often used for soundproofing.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Plasters

StarStarStarStar

A special type of plaster designed to allow sound to pass through and be absorbed by an underlying material.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Fabrics

StarStarStarStar

Fabrics that allow sound to pass through for absorption by a backing material, used in decorative acoustical panels.

StarStarStarStar

Phase Change Materials (PCMs)

StarStarStarStar

Materials that absorb and release thermal energy during the process of melting and solidifying, affecting acoustic properties.

StarStarStarStar

Viscoelastic Materials

StarStarStarStar

Materials with both viscous and elastic characteristics, good for damping vibrations that cause unwanted noise.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Insulation

StarStarStarStar

Bulk materials that slow sound transmission between spaces, typically used in walls and floors of buildings.

StarStarStarStar

Metamaterials

StarStarStarStar

Artificial materials engineered to have properties not found in naturally occurring materials, often manipulating sound waves in unconventional ways.

StarStarStarStar

Resonant Absorbers

StarStarStarStar

Use the resonant properties of materials to absorb specific frequencies of sound, such as panel absorbers and Helmholtz resonators.

StarStarStarStar

Sound Barriers

StarStarStarStar

Designed to block or reflect sound waves, used along highways and in construction sites to mitigate noise pollution.

StarStarStarStar

Helmholtz Resonators

StarStarStarStar

Designed to target and absorb specific frequencies based on the size of the cavity and neck.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Foams

StarStarStarStar

Lightweight materials with open-celled structures, which absorb sound waves and dampen echoes.
