Product catalog summary
Technical Specifications Summary
Acoustical Absorption Foam: Soundown provides high-quality acoustical foam materials with various facings such as Mylar, Urethane, and Vinyl. These foams are available with Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) to avoid the use of strong odor spray adhesives. The foam is made from a polyether formulation, offering superior hydrolytic stability in marine environments compared to polyester foams, which degrade in damp conditions.
Thickness and Effectiveness: The foam is available in thicknesses ranging from 1/4" to 2", with thicker materials providing better sound absorption and a wider frequency range. For engine noise, a minimum thickness of 1/2" is recommended, with 1" being effective and 1-2" considered optimal.
Acoustical Open Cell Foam: The document includes a figure (Fig. 2A) showing typical sound absorption values for fiberglass and foams of various thicknesses.
Physical and Acoustic Properties: The foam exhibits resilience, load-bearing capacity, excellent hydrolysis and oxidation resistance, and moderate solvent resistance. It is hydrophobic and has a noise reduction coefficient of 0.85 at 1" thickness. The foam is produced in 54" wide rolls, with roll length varying by thickness.
Material Surface Density and Thickness: The foam's surface density varies with thickness, ranging from 0.07 lb/ft² for 0.5" thick foam to 0.28 lb/ft² for 2.0" thick foam.
