ISOLMASS® Multi-Layered products with a heavy layer

Product catalog summary

Introduction to Sound and Noise:
Sound is characterized by longitudinal mechanical waves with key parameters such as frequency, speed, wavelength, and amplitude. Acoustic pressure, measured in decibels (dB), is essential for determining sound volume, with a 3 dB increase indicating a doubling of noise power.

Noise Propagation:
Noise can propagate through airborne and structure-borne methods. Airborne sound insulation deals with external and internal noise, while structure-borne sound involves impact noise like footsteps. Effective insulation reduces transmitted and reflected noise.

Airborne Sound Insulation:
Airborne sound travels through air and can be reflected or absorbed by surfaces. Insulation effectiveness is measured by descriptors like Dnt,w and Rw, with higher values indicating better insulation. Sound absorption materials help improve room acoustics by reducing reflected sound.

Structure-Borne/Impact Sound:
Impact sound results from direct impacts or vibrations through building structures. Descriptors like L’n,w and ∆Lw measure sound levels, with lower values indicating better insulation.

Service Equipment Sound:
Service equipment generates both airborne and structure-borne sound, with waste water pipes being significant noise sources. Standards like EN 14366 guide insulation testing.

Acoustic Insulation: how to block noise WHAT IS A SOUND OR A NOISE? The sound is composed by longitudinal mechanical waves, characterized by a pressure deviation (+∆pt compression phase, -∆pt rarefaction phase) from an equilibrium point. In case the sound transmits in the air, the equilibrium point is represented by air atmospheric pressure. Like every waves, the sound waves are defined by physical parameters such as frequency, speed, wave length, amplitude. The acoustic pressure is the most distinctive parameter of a sound/noise, basically defining its volume. Unit measure of pressure is Pascal,...

ISOLMASS® Multi-Layered products with a heavy layer-3

AIRBORNE SOUND The airborne sound is transmitted through the air. Sound waves propagate firstly in the area/room where they are originated. Then, when the waves reach another surface and/or obstacle (i.e. separation wall), the sound energy is partly reflected and absorbed, and partly transmitted through separation elements. The aim of acoustic insulation system is to decrease as much as possible the transmitted part and, furthermore, avoid too much reflected noise. In building sector, the airborne sound is related to the following situations: • External noise, such as façade insulation (external...
