Sound Insulation Property of Warp Knitted Fabrics

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, a test device was designed and established for evaluating the sound insulation of fabrics, and six warp knitted fabrics with different parameters were chosen and tested. The results show that these fabrics have different sound insulation effect to various sound wave frequencies, and normally, the fabric with solid structure has better sound insulation effect that the fabric with thin structure, but the effect of latter fabric can be improved by using some treatments.
