Introduction to Glass Wool(Part 1)

 Centrifugal glass wool is a porous sound-absorbing material with good sound-absorbing performance. The reason why centrifugal glass wool can absorb sound is not because of the rough surface, but because it has a large number of tiny pores and pores connected inside and outside. When sound waves are incident on the centrifugal glass wool, the sound waves can enter the material along with the pores, causing the air molecules in the pores to vibrate. Due to the viscous resistance of air and the friction between air molecules and the pore wall, sound energy is converted into heat energy and is lost.

Sound absorption performance:

Centrifugal glass wool has good sound absorption performance for mid and high frequencies. The main factors affecting the sound absorption performance of centrifugal glass wool are thickness, density, and airflow resistance. Density is the weight of material per cubic meter. Airflow resistance is the ratio of air pressure and air velocity on both sides of the material per unit thickness. Airflow resistance is the most important factor affecting the sound absorption performance of centrifugal glass wool. If the flow resistance is too small, it means that the material is sparse, the air vibration is easy to pass through, and the sound absorption performance is reduced; the flow resistance is too large, it means that the material is dense, the air vibration is difficult to transmit, and the sound absorption performance is also reduced. For centrifugal glass wool, the sound absorption performance has the best flow resistance.

Glass Wool

In actual engineering, it is difficult to measure airflow resistance, but it can be roughly estimated and controlled by thickness and bulk density. 1. With the increase of thickness, the sound absorption coefficient of medium and low frequency increases significantly, but the high frequency changes little (high-frequency absorption is always large). 2. When the thickness remains unchanged, the bulk density increases, and the sound absorption coefficient of mid-low frequency also increases; but when the bulk density increases to a certain level, the material becomes dense, the flow resistance is greater than the optimal flow resistance, and the sound absorption coefficient decreases instead. For centrifugal glass wool with a bulk density of 16Kg/m3 with a thickness of more than 5cm, the low-frequency 125Hz is about 0.2, and the sound absorption coefficient of the medium and high frequency (>500Hz) is close to 1. When the thickness continues to increase from 5cm, the low-frequency sound absorption coefficient gradually increases. When the thickness is greater than 1m, the low-frequency 125Hz sound absorption coefficient will also be close to 1. When the thickness remains the same and the bulk density increases, the low-frequency sound absorption coefficient of centrifugal glass wool will continue to increase. When the bulk density is close to 110kg/m3, the sound absorption performance reaches the maximum, 50mm thick, and close to 0.6-0.7 at a frequency of 125Hz. When the bulk density exceeds 120kg/m3, the sound absorption performance decreases because the material becomes dense, and the mid- and high-frequency sound absorption performance is greatly affected. When the bulk density exceeds 300kg/m3, the sound absorption performance decreases a lot. The thickness of sound-absorbing glass wool commonly used in architectural acoustics is 2.5cm, 5cm, 10cm, and its bulk density is 16, 24, 32, 48, 80, 96, 112kg/m3. Usually use 5cm thick, 12-48kg/m3 centrifugal glass wool.

Do You Know What the Use of Glass Wool Insulation Material Is?

  From the present day, we can see that   Glass Wool   insulation material is used in many aspects of daily life. Its thermal insulation properties make it widely used in daily life or work. The most common is that in colder winters, people can use this product to wrap their own water pipes. This can ensure that their water pipes are not frozen, and then the water between them can be kept flowing for as long as possible.  Glass Wool Because of its shearability, glass wool insulation materials can be trimmed according to their own needs, and products of different sizes can be cut and used in different places. For example, in this relatively cold place in the Northeast, people can wrap this product on their own roofs, make their houses adhere to a certain temperature, and fully play the role of heat insulation of this product, bringing comfort and comfort to their lives. convenient. In addition, glass wool insulation materials are also used more locally. With the extensive use of this in

Neoprene vs EPDM: What's the Difference?

  Both neoprene and   EPDM   are materials used in the manufacture of conveyor belt systems. While neoprene is most commonly used in the industry, many companies are turning to EPDM because using it overcomes many of the challenges associated with using neoprene.   What is neoprene? Neoprene is made through the polymerization of chlorine. Characterised by its chemical stability, flexibility over a wide range of temperatures and resistance to degradation, the material was originally intended as a petroleum-based alternative to natural rubber.   Its durability and flexibility make neoprene suitable for a wide range of everyday products - such as sports and medical equipment, technical coverings and sleeves, diving suits and safety gloves - as well as for a variety of outdoor applications - including as hoses, gaskets, seals, and gaskets. -including as hoses, gaskets, seals, coatings and linings.   Huamei  EPDM rubber foams  include semi-closed cell supersoft and supersoft foams; closed c

What Is the Difference Between Extruded Board and Foam Board?

  Extruded plate  (XPS), based on polystyrene resin as raw material, through a special process of continuous extrusion foaming molding hardboard, its internal structure for independent closed bubbles, is one kind has high pressure, water absorption, moisture, breathable, lightweight, corrosion resistance, long service life, low coefficient of thermal conductivity, excellent environmental protection heat preservation material performance. Extruded polystyrene (XPS) insulation board is widely used in wall insulation, flat concrete roof, and steel structure roof insulation, low-temperature storage ground, parking platform, airport runway, highway and other fields of moisture-proof insulation, and control ground frost heave. 1. Excellent and long-lasting thermal insulation The extruded board has a thermal conductivity of 0.028w/MK, which has the characteristics of high thermal resistance and low linear expansion rate.
