Mechanical, thermal and acoustical evaluation of biocomposites made of agricultural waste for ceiling tiles

Ruben Maderuelo-Sanz et al.

Summary: This study investigates the use of agricultural waste to create acoustic panels for ceiling tiles, offering a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional building materials. The panels, made from materials such as rice husk, vine pruning residues, cork, and prickly pear, were bonded with a water-based acrylic resin. The mechanical, thermal, and acoustic properties of the panels were tested and evaluated. The results showed a high sound absorption coefficient and acceptable flexural strength, making them suitable for use as suspended ceiling tiles. These biocomposites provide a sustainable solution compared to traditional synthetic and petroleum-based acoustic ceiling panels.

Nonwoven fabric coated with core-shell and hollow nanofiber membranes for efficient sound absorption in buildings

Mahnaz Hajimohammadi et al.

Summary: This study investigates the acoustic performance of fibrous sound absorbers incorporating nanofibrous structures. The results show that electrospinning nanofibrous structures on the back side of the nonwoven fabric enhances viscosity resistance absorption, while electrospinning on the front side changes the absorption mechanism to resonance type. Hollow nanofibers demonstrated superior acoustic behavior compared to core-shell structures. The increase of membrane thickness improved the acoustic performance at low and middle frequencies.

Sound absorption characteristics of aluminosilicate fibers

P. Soltani et al.

Summary: This study investigates the morphological and acoustical characteristics of fibrous materials made of aluminosilicate fibers (ASFs). It was found that with the increase of the sample thickness, sound absorption coefficient (SAC) increases at low frequencies. Additionally, it was observed that with the increase of air gap depth, SAC enhances at low-frequency bands.

Improved sound absorption performance of synthetic fiber materials for industrial noise reduction: a review

Mengtao Liang et al.

Summary: This paper reviews the sound absorption mechanism, material modification, and structural design of various synthetic fiber materials for industrial noise reduction, focusing on the issues of low sound absorption coefficient (SAC) and narrow frequency band of porous materials. The Delany-Bazley model and Johnson-Champoux-Allard (JCA) model are commonly used to predict SAC, with slight differences between them. The air viscous effect is important in the Delany-Bazley model and its modifications, while the JCA model and its modifications also consider the effect of thermal conduction in addition to air viscosity. Synthetic fiber materials such as polymers, metal fibers, and inorganic fibers are widely used in noise reduction fields due to their unique acoustic and mechanical performance. Improving the acoustic properties of polymers can be achieved through the addition of fillers, the use of perforated structures, gradient porous structures, and multilayer composite structures. For metal fibers, enhancing engineering applications in extreme environments can be achieved by improving the preparation method, increasing the thickness of the back cavity, combining different pore sizes, developing new composite materials, and adopting perforation technology. Common methods to improve the sound absorption performance of inorganic fibers include modifying the preparation method, increasing material thickness, and researching composite materials.

Sound absorption, structure and mechanical behavior of konjac glucomannan-based aerogels with addition of gelatin and wheat straw

Yixin Wang et al.

Summary: Environment-friendly konjac glucomannan-based aerogels with addition of gelatin and wheat straw were successfully prepared using freeze-drying method. The addition of gelatin significantly improved sound absorption performance and mechanical strength. The addition of wheat straw improved sound absorption property due to its unique multi-cavity structure. The addition of wheat straw initially led to strength reduction but enhancement when the addition was more than 1.00%.

Experimental and modeling investigation of the acoustic behavior of sustainable kenaf/yucca composites

Seyed Ehsan Samaei et al.

Summary: The study explores the acoustic behavior of kenaf and yucca waste fiber composites, finding that samples with 100% kenaf fibers exhibit promising performance at low and mid-frequency bands. Decreasing kenaf content in the composite samples shifts the absorption peak towards the high-frequency region. The Johnson-Champoux-Allard (JCA) model closely follows the trend of experimental data in the frequency range of 80-6300 Hz.

Mathematical and experimental investigation of sound absorption behavior of sustainable kenaf fiber at low frequency

E. Taban et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the sound absorption behavior of sustainable kenaf fiber at low-frequency range using the Delany-Bazley model and Nelder-Mead method, comparing the results with experimental findings. Samples of natural kenaf fibers at different thicknesses and bulk densities were prepared to measure the values of airflow resistivity and sound absorption coefficients, with predicted values obtained from both models. The inverse laws approach was applied to determine physical parameters and predict absorption performance of the kenaf fiber at low frequency ranges.
