Study of a Sound Absorbing Polyurethane Based on Porous Composite Material

Abstract

A new type of sound absorbing material, which was made from super strength polyurethane and mass fiber, was investigated. And the sound absorption coefficient of the material was tested by standing wave tube method. Experiment results manifested that content of glass fibers, blowing agent and thickness have great effects on the sound absorbing performance of the sample. When the content of glass fiber and blowing agent are separately 3% and 0.4%, the performance of the material reaches optimum. The noise reduction coefficient of the material is 0.6, and the sound absorption property at middle-low frequency is good.
