“…The relationship between sound absorption and physical properties of these samples was investigated by measuring the sound absorption coefficients from 250 to 2000 Hz with an air gap behind the specimens. According to this paper 3 and corroborated by others, 1,4,8 the acoustical absorptive behavior of highly porous fiber assemblies is strongly dependent on the air motion, resulting in frictional losses in the pores of the nonwoven.…”

“…Sound absorption-related literature utilizing nonwovens has primarily focused on the influence of structural parameters. 2,4–8,11–14 In this research, however, the interaction of the sound wave with the material is also taken into consideration in explaining the acoustic energy absorption of the high-loft nonwovens. Aso and Kinoshita 3,10 published several interesting papers in which the effect of the acoustic field was also considered.…”

Sound absorption characteristics of specially designed high-loft nonwovens with minimum thickness were reported in this study. Three different polypropylene and polyester fiber-based high-loft, air-laid, and thermally bonded nonwovens varying in basis weight were produced. Heavier high-loft nonwoven samples at various thicknesses were formed using a specially designed mold. The sound absorption coefficients of samples with mass per unit areas ranging from 350 to 1575 g/m2 and with thicknesses ranging from 5 to 45 mm were measured. Acoustical absorptive behavior of the high-loft nonwovens was explained by analyzing the displacements of small air control volumes in a high-loft nonwoven and the air velocities in the impedance tube. Results indicate that the velocity and the total displacement of the small air volumes inside the fiber network have a major effect on sound absorption. High-loft nonwovens can be much more effective in terms of sound absorption if they are produced at the thickness at which average maximum velocity of the air is calculated highest. If there is a desire to absorb more acoustic energy, heavier nonwovens can be produced. It is suggested that relatively heavy nonwovens (from 700 to 1575 g/m2) can be produced thinner (5–10 mm) than the calculated thickness value based on the average maximum air velocity to get maximum sound absorption at lower thickness.

Influence of Fibre Cross Section and Various Bonding Techniques Adopting TaguchiOwing to their high porosity and low solid volume fraction nonwoven materials are considered to be the most appropriate textile based sound absorbers for noise control applications. The solid volume fraction in majority of nonwovens could be 20% or less. The structure of nonwovens inherently has pores with tortuous paths, allowing the sound waves to enter through them. Various kinds of pores like 'open' or 'closed' can be present in a porous material [6]. 'Open' pored materials have a continuous channel of communication with the external surface of the body.The open-pored structure of nonwovens provides a proper medium for sound waves to be absorbed by three mechanisms which are: converting the sound energy into heat in the material, viscous losses because of the oscillating air flow entering the porous areas inside the material and vibration of fibers due to vibration of air particles caused by the sound waves [7]. Since nonwoven materials have a complex structure, there are many variables influencing

This work presents the results of efforts focused on the development of relatively lightweight and fibrous acoustic webs. For this objective, nonwoven webs that contain bicomponent filaments with islands-in-the-sea cross sections were produced by spunbonding, which involves the extrusion of sea and island polymer melts through dies, cooling and attenuating the bicomponent filaments by high-velocity air streams. Nylon 6 and polyethylene were used as the island and sea polymers, respectively. Webs were hydroentangled with high-pressure water jets prior to the dissolving process to obtain fiber entanglement. Sea polymer was removed from the spunbonded nonwovens by using a reflux dissolution setup. Weight, thickness, air permeability, pore size and sound absorption coefficients of the nonwoven samples were measured before and after the sea polymer removal. Results demonstrated that sea polymer removal led to further bicomponent filament fibrillation, which affected sound absorption positively. The structure with the higher number of island fibers had better acoustical properties. Lightweight and fibrous acoustic nonwovens can be obtained with the method given in this study.
