Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to methods of forming sound absorbing composite structures have an acoustic tuning layer.
- 2. Background Art
- There is an increasing demand for the reduction of sound levels to improve perception in the passenger compartments of automobiles. Development of methods and systems that accomplish such reductions require an understanding of the potential internal and external noise sources in an automobile as well as the effect of various automobile components in masking or attenuating such noise. Moreover, reduction of noise in the 1 KHZ to 5 KHz frequency range is particularly desirable due to the increased sensitivity of vehicle passengers in that range for speech intelligibility and speech clarity.
- Some sound insulating components such as dash insulators and vehicle passenger floor components act as acoustic tuning layers by controlling the air permeability of a single layer within a composite. Examples of such acoustic tuning layers include perforated films or fabrics that resist air flow. In other variations, the layer may be coated with a material such as a sintered or powder coated thermoplastic. These layers shift the sound absorption of a composite to lower frequencies than it would have if impermeable to air. A problem sound absorbing component having such layers is that after the component is formed into a shape the air permeability of the acoustic tuning layer is altered.
- Accordingly, there is a need in the prior art for improved methods of forming sound insulating automobile components with adjustable air permeability.
- The present invention solves one or more problems of the prior art by providing in at least one embodiment a method of making a sound insulating layered composite structure. In the method of the invention, a sound insulating layered composite structure is formed from a padding layer. The padding layer has a preformed shaped corresponding to the automobile component which is ultimately formed. The padding layer is contacted with a curable liquid composition to form an uncured or partially cured cap layer disposed over at least a portion of the padding layer. Uncured or partially cured cap layer is cured to form the sound insulating composite structure of the present embodiment. Advantageously, the sound insulating layered composite structure of the present embodiment is useful for making a variety of sound insulating automotive components such as dash insulators.
