Effect of Percentage Ratio of Hydroxylated Biomonomer with Synthetic Epoxy of Polymer Foam for Sound Absorption Study

Abstract:

Biopolymer foam was prepared based on vegetable oil and Polyol Flexible (Epoxy) with commercial Polymethane Polyphenyl Isocyanate (Modified Polymeric-MDI) with the different proportion ratio. This research is to study the acoustic property between different proportion ratio of biomonomer and epoxy. The acoustic property of biopolymer foam was examined by using an impedance tube test according to ASTM E-1050 of sound absorption coefficient (α). Based on the result obtained, mostly the values of α were consistent at the samples F. It was observed that, sample F gave the highest value of α that is 0.997 at of 3500Hz. Sample F from ratio 100:0 from epoxy to biomonomer and gave the best sound absorption than the other foam. So, different ratio give different α at different frequency (Hz).
