Melamine Foam- Ideal for acoustic insulation

Melamine foam is undeniably one of the best acoustic insulation materials. It is fire-resistant and has outstanding noise reduction and sound attenuation properties. Its vibration isolation and soundproofing properties create a serene environment for everyone. In this post, we will offer more details on why melamine foams are ideal for acoustic insulation.

What exactly is melamine foam?

Melamine foams are flexible, sleek, low-density micro porous material made from melamine resin, a thermosetting polymer composed of formaldehyde and melamine. To create melamine foam composite, the melamine resin compound is foamed with a unique three-dimensional structure featured by a highly interconnected cross-linked system.

The high degree of cross-linking of the sonex foam makes it more resistant to cold and more thermally stable than conventional foams like polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyurethane, which have lesser degrees of cross-linking.

Characteristics and features of Sonex foam

Sonex foam sheets have become the ultimate choice for different kinds or acoustic insulations, thanks to their unbeatable features. However, melamine does have some superior qualities. Some of the features that define open-cell insulation material include:

Semi-rigid but flexible

Simple to personalize

Flame resistant

Light in weight

Toxicity, smoke generation and low flame propagation

Sound absorption

Foam composite is amazing for its sound absorbing qualities. It has a microscopic cellular structure that absorbs sound waves, isolating vibrations and preventing noise from echoes on ceilings, walls and floors. This property makes it a perfect insulator for transportation, insulation, aerospace, construction and other implementations.

Conclusion

Melamine foams are undeniably the ultimate insulation solution for acoustic implementations. It is flame-resistant, light in weight, waterproof and has outstanding soundproofing features. It can withstand high temperatures and Des Moines noise control for a more convenient and serene ambience. Its implementation cuts across different industries, making it suitable for insulation needs.

Different types of melamine foam density

Melamine foam is a sponge made of melamine formaldehyde resin foamed through a fixation process. After compression at various pressures, actual density melamine foam will become melamine foam with various densities. The extensively used density of this type of foam is 8 and 12 density options.

The actual density of melamine foam is fixed at 8 densities, which is also the lowest density. The density will surge under high pressures of the compressor, but the weight remains unchanged, so this type of foam will have different kinds of densities.

8 density Sonex foam has an excellent benefit in the field of home decoration as acoustic material. Foam with 8 densities implies that in 1 cubic meter of space, the weight of the foam is 8 kilograms.

8 density foam composite can also be used for regular cleaning purposes along with being an acoustic material, like removing dirt, stains, and stubborn marks from surfaces like floors, walls and furniture.

This is the best foam product due to its versatility. Incidentally, this foam is also the most inexpensive among all products as it uses the least melamine raw material for the same volume. 12 density foam of this type is a very long-lasting cleaning product. This type of foam also comes with a custom pattern service for Des Moines noise control.

At O’Neill Engineered Systems, we are committed to serving our customers with the best possible service and products. No matter you are a wholesale customer planning to purchase huge quantities of melamine foam or an individual looking for foam of various densities for personal use, we are here to assist.

Along with our standard shapes and sizes, we also provide custom cutting services and packages to meet the particular requirements of our customers. This enables us to provide foam that are customized to the unique needs of every application.

Pyramid and egg crate foam - good for acoustics or not?

Making pyramid or egg crate (known as convoluted) foam is not as easy as making flat sheet foam, and so it costs more. You would hope that it gave more absorption since it costs more but it doesn’t. The same depth of flat sheet foam gives you more acoustic absorption because there is more foam!! Not only this, it costs less.

The giant wedges in anechoic chambers work as impedance transformers for sound waves because they are large enough to work at the sort of wavelengths that sound waves exist at. However, down at the size of 50 or 100mm, they are way too small to work like this.

Odd really isn’t it, that the more costly sculpted foam look like it should absorb more but really it doesn’t. So remember, for normal audio applications like studios and theatres, flat foam costs less and provides more acoustic absorption.

Building an EEG Lab:  Electrical and Acoustic Isolation

Below are some recommendations I’ve developed related to designing EEG acquisition spaces. By no means am I an expert in this area – this is a layperson’s guide. When in doubt, work with an electrician. All of the tools and products mentioned below are simply things that have worked for me.

Testing Electrical Grounding of Your Outlets

Working with an electrician or some tools and some web searching you can be sure the circuit you are powering your EEG equipment is grounded and not inducing noise in your data. The simplest test can be done with a receptacle tester that often are less than $10 (for example: https://tinyurl.com/yxtluhbl) or a multimeter (for example: https://tinyurl.com/MultiMeterTesters) or you can by a kit with multiple tools for as little as $35 (for example: https://tinyurl.com/ElectricToolKilt). If you discover that your outlet is not grounded, you should speak with your institutional electricians about installing a dedicated grounded circuit. If you have concerns about power outages or noise from the electrical system, try a continuous power supply that features a line conditioner.

Electrical Isolation

Faraday cages were once thought to be essential for EEG equipment but given that a majority of researchers will end up placing computers, speakers and other electronic equipment inside the shielded environment, a less expensive and potentially equally effective strategy is isolation. Electric fields drop off as a function of distance (http://www.emfs.info/what/distance/) so as long as the participant and equipment are a few feet away from a source you can expect minimal noise to contaminate the EEG. Try to limit or remove any non-essential equipment in the environment and minimize power supplies and looped cables near the participant or the amplifier.

Troubleshooting electrical noise sources can be difficult but an EMF meter can help locate sources so you can remove, distance, turn off or shield sources such as power cords and lighting. Not all EMF meters are created equal and have different levels of sensitivity that can make things more challenging. My favorite EMF meter is the TriField EMF Meter (Model TF2, $168, available at https://www.trifield.com/product/trifield-emf-meter/).

Sound Proofing / Acoustic Isolation

If you are building a new space or have funds to renovate a space for EEG acquisition, you can create a quiet space by using sound proof drywall such as Soundbreak XP or QuietRock. These two acoustic dry wall options can be twice as expensive as typical drywall but definitely make for a quiet room, particularly when used with soundproofing foam on top. Some labs use a double layer of acoustic drywall. It is best to not use insulation in walls as an air gap is better for attenuating sound. Again, if you have the walls open be sure to limit electrical wiring near your participant or EEG components that carry the signal to the amplifier.

I have used Sonex Foam (https://acousticalsolutions.com/product-category/acoustic-foam/) but imagine there are other brands available from many different suppliers. Depending on the size of the room, you can create a very quiet room for just a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. Often people forget to cover the ceiling with foam which can allow for a quite a bit of noise to enter even if you have acoustic ceiling tiles. Doors can also allow in quite a bit of noise if they are not
