A Novel Acoustic Sandwich Panel Based On Sheep Wool
COATINGS(2020)
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to propose a novel sandwich panel, which would be suitable for sound absorption and airborne sound insulation, used as applied cladding or independent lightweight partition wall. As far as the authors are concerned, this is the first sheep wool-based sandwich panel using only natural materials. The structure was prepared using hydrated lime-based composite face sheets and a sheep wool-based core. Several parameters of the sandwich panel were determined, including sound absorption coefficient, airborne sound insulation, thermal conductivity, thermal resistance, compressive strength, and bending strength, respectively. The results indicate that the maximum sound absorption value of 0.903 was obtained at the frequency of 524 Hz in the case of the unperforated sample, 0.822 at 536 Hz in the case of the sample with 10% perforations, 0.780 at 3036 Hz in the case of the sample with 20% perforations, and 0.853 at 3200 Hz in the case of the sample with 30% perforations. The registered airborne sound insulation index of the panel was 38 dB. Based on the obtained data, it can be concluded that the studied panel recorded comparable values with other synthetic noise control solutions, which are suitable as applied cladding or an independent lightweight partition wall, with good acoustic properties.
