The document discusses various types of acoustic materials used for soundproofing, including sound absorbers, diffusers, barriers, and reflectors. It provides examples of common materials for each type such as acoustic foam panels, fabric wrapped panels, ceiling tiles, and mineral wool rolls for absorbers. For diffusers it mentions pyramidal, quadratic, and polycylindrical styles. Barriers include mass loaded vinyl, composite foams, and metal sheet curtains. Price ranges and specifications are given for many products.

2. Acoustics is the interdisciplinary science that deals
with the study of all mechanical waves in gases,
liquids, and solids including vibration, sound,
ultrasound and infrasound.
Acoustical materials are a variety of foams,
fabrics, metals, etc. used to quiet workplaces,
homes, automobiles, and so forth to increase the
comfort and safety of their inhabitants by
reducing noise generated both inside and
outside of those spaces.
TYPES OF MATERIALS:-
▪Sound absorbers
▪Sound diffusers
▪Noise barriers
▪Sound reflectors

3. Sound Absorbers
• These sound absorbing acoustical panels and soundproofing materials are used to
eliminate sound reflections to improve speech intelligibility, reduce standing waves
and prevent comb filtering.
• Typical materials are open cell polyurethane foam, cellular melamine, fiberglass, fluffy
fabrics and other porous materials.
• A wide variety of materials can be applied to walls and ceilings depending on your
application and environment.
• These materials vary in thickness and in shape to achieve different absorption ratings
depending on the specific sound requirements.
TYPES –
▪Acoustical foam panels
▪White paintable acoustical wall
panels
▪Fabric wrapped panels
▪Acoustical wall coverings
▪Ceiling tiles
▪Baffles and banners for ceiling
▪Fibre glass blankets and roll

7. Sound Diffusers
• These devices reduce the intensity of sound by scattering it over an
expanded area, rather than eliminating the sound reflections as an
absorber would.
• Traditional spatial diffusers, such as the polycylindrical (barrel) shapes also
double as low frequency traps.
• Temporal diffusers, such as binary arrays and quadratics, scatter sound in a
manner like diffraction of light, where the timing of reflections from an
uneven surface of varying depths causes interference which spreads the
sound.
• Examples:-
• QUADRA PYRAMID DIFFUSER - This diffuser generates a uniform polar
response over a broad frequency range using a pre-rotated pyramidal pattern
to create 16 angles of reflection.
• PYRAMIDAL DIFFUSER - This traditional industry workhorse disperses sound
uniformly over a broad frequency range. A quick solution to reduce flutter echo.
• DOUBLE DUTY DIFFUSER - These Polycylindrical Diffusers do twice the work.
They scatter sound and function as a bass trap.
• QUADRATIC DIFFUSER A true quadratic residue diffuser designed for uniform
broadband scattering and reducing High-Q reflections.

10. Noise Barriers
• These materials range from dense materials to block the transmission of airborne
sound to devices and compounds used to isolate structures from one another and
reduce impact noise.
• BARRIERS:-
• Sound barrier materials are used to reduce the transmission of airborne sound.
• The BlockAid® series of products include the standard one pound per square foot non
reinforced barrier, transparent material when observation or supervision is required,
reinforced vinyl to create a hanging barrier partition.
• COMPOSITES
• Composite materials are manufactured from combinations of various materials from
open and closed celled foams to quilted fiberglass and barrier.
• These products are used to block and absorb sound for machine enclosures as well as
blocking airborne sound and impact noise.
• Some of these products include Composite Foams, Strati Quilt Blankets and Floor
Underlayment.
• VIBRATION CONTROL
• Vibration control products are used to absorb vibration energy and prevent structural
noise transmission.
• These include vibration damping compounds and vibration pads, isolation hangers,
and resilient clips. They improve sound transmission loss.
