The paper concerns the sound absorption performance of a compound absorber which consists of a parallel arrangement of multiple perforated panel absorbers of different backing cavity depths partially filled with poroelastic polymer materials. Three polymer materials are considered: expandable polystyrene (EPS) foam, polymethacrylimide (PMI) foam, and polyester fiber. The normal incidence sound absorption coefficients of the compound panel absorber are tested experimentally. Results show that the former two foams can achieve similar absorption performance to the rigid cavity configuration, while the resonances shift to lower frequencies due to the changes of effective cavity depths. It is also found that the additional attenuation by polymer foams may improve sound absorption, but the effect is marginal. For polyester fiber, results show that it performs more like a single perforated panel absorber. Finite element simulation of the compound panel absorber is also discussed, and good agreement is observed between simulated and experimental results.

As a natural fiber, kapok fiber has the high hollow degree that is very good for sound absorption. Four different kinds of kapok-based fiber nonwoven fabrics, made by kapok fiber mixing with hollow polyester, viscose fiber, PP fiber and cotton fiber respectively, were made and the sound absorption coefficients were measured in the frequency region of 100 - 6300 Hz by using a two-microphone transfer-function method. The comparisons of the sound absorption for four types of materials with similar thickness and densities with no air gap and with 1 cm, 3 cm air gap were made. The results indicate that the sound absorption of kapok/hollow polyester fiber nonwoven fabrics is superior to those of other three ones and kapok/hollow polyester fiber nonwoven fabrics can be used for sound-absorbing materials in engineering.

Microperforated panels (MPPs) are recognized as suitable absorbers for noise control applications demanding special clean and health requirements.While it is relatively easy to design single-layer MPPs for sound absorption in one-to-two octave bands at medium-high frequencies, the performance for low frequencies (below 600 Hz) leads to a rather narrow-band absorption, similar to that of a Helmholtz resonator. However, multiple-layer MPPs can be designed as sound absorbers that yield low-frequency absorption in a wide frequency band. Recently, multiple-cavity perforated panels have been proposed to improve the performance of MPPs in the low-frequency range. In this article, the capability of multiple-layer and multiple-cavity MPPs to provide sound absorption at low frequencies is analyzed.

More and more concern for environmental problems has led public to use natural and environmentally benign sound-absorbing materials. In this study, the sound-absorbing nonwoven composites based on kapok fiber and hollow polyester fiber were developed and sound absorption properties of kapok fiber nonwoven composites were investigated in the low frequency region of 100-500 Hz using the impedance tube method. The poor sound-absorbing at low-frequency is one of the difficult problems that urgently need to be solved in fibrous sound-absorbing materials. The effects of physical parameters, including bulk density and thickness, and depth of back cavity on sound absorption properties of composites were studied. Increasing of the bulk density, thickness and depth of back cavity is contribute to improve sound absorption properties of composites at low frequency. The comparisons of kapok fiber with polypropylene (PP) fiber and hollow polyester fiber indicated that as a natural fiber, kapok fiber had a superior acoustical properties at low frequency.

Non-woven textile industry in an emerging field, with the process short, high yield, low cost and wide source of raw materials, but also has excellent performance of many functions on, making non-woven over the past half century gained textiles attention and consumers of all ages. The proportion of the world of non-woven fiber material used in the product, 85% in rayon ,and the other 15% in natural fibers, polyester fibers which accounted for the largest proportion of use. The experiment uses a low melting point polyester fiber (LPET) 20%, three-dimensional hollow curly polyester fiber (TPET) and recycled far infrared fiber (REPET) 40% each as the basic conditions change pressing temperature 100 °C-140 °C, in order to observe and compare the effects of temperature on the non-woven fabric, this experiment tests including air permeability, tensile strength testing, infrared testing and SEM, respectively in different hot pressing temperature, each of the non-woven hot pressing temperatures sample go through microscopic to analysis for non-woven with the hot temperatures strong reason to improve or decline with hot temperature of air permeability.

This study aims to investigate the optimal value of design parameters for the sound-absorbing nonwoven composite board. The number of laminated layers and thickness of polyester fiber are viewed as the design parameters for fabricating the nonwoven composite board. The 2D, 7D and 12D polyester fibers are individually mixed with 4D low-melting point polyester fiber to produce 2D polyester nonwoven fabric (2D-PETF), 7D polyester nonwoven fabric (7D-PETF) and 12D polyester nonwoven fabric (12D-PETF) respectively. The developed nonwoven fabrics are then used to fabricate 2D-PET, 7D-PET and 12D-PET nonwoven composite boards through the multiple needle-punching and thermal bonding techniques. The sound absorption performance of each PET composite board is carefully examined. The experimental results reveal that the 7D-PET composite board with 10 laminated layers has the optimal sound absorption performance.
