Soundproofing the walls in the apartment: modern materials

Not only utility and convenience heat provide comfortable living conditions., You need to feel great reduce noise from the busy streets and neighbors. For this purpose the insulation in the walls of the apartment. Advanced materials help considerably subtract background noise. If you do not know which option to choose the sound insulation, that our review will help you. From it you will learn about the advantages and disadvantages of different materials.

Soundproofing the walls in the apartment: modern materials, the basic characteristics

When choosing soundproofing materials for the walls need to know that sound insulation and sound absorption is not the same thing. Soundproofing implies a certain barrier to the waves produced.

Absorption is performed at a sound energy transformation into heat. This reduces the activity of the reflected wave. In this case, sound-proof fabric should have a high density and mass, and sound-absorbing - soft and porous volume. Learn about existing materials more information you can from this movie:

When choosing a suitable option, you need to decide who will do the packing: experts or you yourself. And what is more important to you: to reduce noise or to save more space in the apartment. To make the installation on their own, you can pick up sandwich panels. They can be installed without the frame in a simple manner on the surface of the sticker.

There are three options that can be selected:

• Thin insulation composite material MaksForte SoundPRO;

a new generation of material created in view of the theoretical developments in the field of building acoustics and practical experience of installation works. With a minimum thickness of 12 mm material provides maximum protection from airborne and impact sound and irreplaceable small apartmentsWhere every centimeter counts! Completely environmentally friendly: it contains no adhesives and other chemicals. MaksForte-SoundPRO - perfect for any room apartments, kindergartens, schools. Also, the material acts as a fire protection (Completely non-flammable) and thermal insulation!

Roller assembly with this structure:

• wall covering plasterboard or multilayer tiles;

• coating a thin type.

Of sound-absorbing materials for the walls you can find such varieties:

• glass fiber plates and plates made of mineral wool. They may have a thickness of 30 mm. More often than not fit into the prepared frame with a shell made of plasterboard;

• panels of polyurethane foam fixed on the adhesive. When the alignment is not required this technology. structural thickness is in the range - 3.5-10 cm;

• and sound-absorbing characteristics are liquid materials. They distribute high layer. When this alignment is not required, since the top will be used gypsum plasterboard;

• roll bung It is a natural product having a thickness of 0.8-1 cm. The sound will be absorbed better if the cell size is 3 mm.

For soundproofing walls in modern apartment materialymogut be:

• decoration gipsovolokonnyh plates with fixings to the wall. Between the wall and the frame must be left technological space into which sound-absorbing sheets are placed;

• panel systems have a thickness in the range 5,5-13,5 cm. They are mounted without installation frame;

• Decorative products such as They represent a thin layer, only lish1,2-1,5 cm from the framing system and a mineral particulate filler;

• acoustic plate represent the device of waterproofing, reinforcing layers and polystyrene;

• tiles from fiber They are thin facing sheet;

• thin membranes large density.

Shumanet BM - option sound insulation walls in the apartment: the price of a modern material

Shumanet BM - is an advanced materials. Soundproofing the walls in the apartment it is made from a special min.plity made of basalt fiber. Thus one of the sides of the treated glass fiber surface, which gives the mat strength. Such quality is necessary if it is required an additional processing embodiment. Since the products are characterized by a high rate of water-resistance, it allows it to be used for wet areas. Such soundproofing option made taking into account the rules SNIP. It can be used for suspended structures. It is often used for walls and partitions of the multi-layer type.

Performing insulation using Shumanet

Installation is carried out by analogy with the laying of the mineral wool. The installation consists of the following stages:

• on the prepared wall surface marking is performed for securing crates parts;
• then battens fixed components. For this purpose timber wood;
• between the bars and the wall are laid thinnest sheets for insulation;
• bars are attached with hangers;
• over the vapor-permeable membrane is attached. After that, mount plasterboard elements.

Teksaund - option soundproof decorative panels for walls

Recently applied for soundproofing teksaund. Price of the material is readily available. The material has a small area, thereby saving space. The lime-based material is aragonite and as binders different polymer formulations are used. With their excellent flexibility provided via webs. Even the sheets of small thickness able to dissipate qualitatively different sounds. Such an article is used for a variety of surfaces. It is mounted on the wall, the ceiling or even on floor. In most cases such products are used together with thermal insulation cloths.

This product has been created by the Spanish company engineers Texsa. Then there was also the first production. Teksaund done in canvases and packed in polyethylene rolls.

Here are the advantages:

• resistance to temperature changes. In the case of minus temperatures the elasticity of the web is not reduced;
• cover something similar to rubber, because of its plasticity;
• fabric is resistant to humidity, It will not mildew;
• It has a long operating life;
• perfectly combined with different coatings.

Mounting material

Using this material, you can make high-quality soundproofing the walls in the apartment with his hands. Cheap but work will not do. To install such a framework approach, as drywall, plastic, wood or concrete. It is important that the surface is thoroughly cleaned of old paint, primed and dried. If there is a layer plasterThen to work it needs to be primed.

Installation can be carried out in two variants. The first method is without a heater, and the second - with thermal insulation material.

Here are the stages of operation without insulation:

• the pretreated surface of the adhesive is distributed. Often a special adhesive composition is used for the job. You should wait for 15-20 minutes until the glue better grab;
• sound-insulating material is divided into pieces in advance. The adhesive solution should be applied also in advance;
• It simplifies the special self-adhesive materials;
• the sheet is pressed, then it must be well pin roller. This would allow a qualitative adhesion to surfaces;
• web should be located carefully lapped;
• if sticking is performed on the surface of the ceiling, it is necessary to use small sheets as canvases are heavy;
• you can take advantage of special fasteners fungi for better fixation.

Also consider the installation steps with the additional heat insulating material for insulation:

• pre-wall primedAnd then mounted on the edge batten construction;
• If the wall is fixed first insulation, the insulation layer and fastened fungi strips of metal;
• as insulation mineral wool. The layer of insulation can be secured with a special membrane;
• as a facing material applied plasterboard, OSB sheets or plywood;
• fixing to the uprights crates is done by screws;
• be sure to hold joint compound, as well as to mask the top screws;
• then the entire surface is further treated with primer and if necessary puttiedAnd the walls are decorated with finishing.

Note! To align the walls often used drywall.

Foam mats as sound insulation materials for walls and ceilings

The acoustic material is often used as a material variant soundproofing walls into flat materials. Product price is quite acceptable. Foam mats attributed to the budget type product. They are used in large rooms. They even allow you to drown out the low frequency sounds. Furthermore, such layer scatter and absorb sound vibrations.

Mats of foam have a long life. When mounting the fabric are stacked directly on the surface of the wall without any pads.

Acoustic foam can vary according to the type of terrain pyramid, wave or a wedge. Product thickness varies from 10 to 120 mm. By cheap foam embodiments refers to the design in the form of a wedge. To get the highest quality sound insulation is further applied decorative plates and wedges for insulation.

Fixation foam produced using liquid nails warmed silicone and double-sided tape.

Interesting information! If the foam layer to handle not only the walls, but the floor and the ceiling, the room will be provided with high-quality soundproofing.

How to choose the best sound insulation material: prices and specifications

Let's see what kind of stuff all - it's better. To combat aircraft noise remarkably fit drywall, foam concrete, Mineral wool or sandwich panels. To get rid of the shock noise is necessary to apply polystyrene, polyethylene or cork sheets.

To get rid of the structural noise materials are recommended with a high level of elasticity. This can be fiberglass or vybroakustichesky sealant.
