Is wool a good absorber of sound? How does it help in soundproofing your space?

The viscous and elastic properties of wool convert sound into heat energy, thereby providing excellent thermal insulation and noise dissipation. Keeping your room warm & maintaining sound quality, fittings are installed with perforated wooden panels, glass or metal sheets to improve acoustics in a building. Laying panels of acoustic wool across the roof, walls & floors can enhance the quality of your room’s atmosphere.

What is the viscoelasticity of wool?

Viscoelasticity is the property of materials that exhibit both viscous & elastic characteristics when enduring stress. Viscoelastic materials are used for automobile bumpers, computer drives, helmets, shoes, mats, walls & roofing, to reduce mechanical impact through the loss of energy within the material. This property of wool makes it excellent insulation & acoustic set up for building interiors.

When the impact hits wool fibres, the viscoelastic properties allow the material to retain its structure while most of the energy is lost and the process generates heat. Stress relaxation studies on different kinds of wool fibres show properties that exhibit excellent soundproofing & thermal properties. Commonly used to keep you warm in winter, wool is employed for various manufacturing purposes due it its useful characteristics. When stress is applied to wool fibres, the material is able to recover due to outstanding relaxation physiognomies. These viscoelastic properties make wool insulation the perfect choice for improving room acoustics & thermal control. Wool is a good absorber of sound!

How does wool help in soundproofing your space?

Glass wool blankets are a top choice for metal building insulations. The panelling can be laid across roofs, walls & floors to fill voids in the construction. The blanketed panelling is used under any wall or roof that is supported by layers, to facilitate thermal control & improve acoustic performance. By containing the indoor warmth & noise impact, glass wool installations are rising demand for interior designs that require superior acoustics.

Utilizing the properties of various materials that compliment wool’s diverse properties, Tranquil designs metal, wooden & glass wool slabs as well as panels of the highest quality.

According to project requirements, long resilient wool fibres are bonded together with resin to provide lightweight, flexible wool blankets. You can opt for foil vapour insulations, flexible glass blankets & Vinyl coated barriers among many other combinations available. Your design for acoustics should consider soundproofing, response to sound waves & noise cancellation for each space. From an array of choices, specialists at Tranquil can project the perfect design strategy for quality acoustic panelling & soundproofing in your spaces.
