Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to laminated sound-absorbing materials. [Background technology]

[0002] Automobiles and other vehicles are machines that have a power source such as an engine and can be moved by human operation, and they generate various vibrations and noises. The sounds transmitted inside a vehicle include not only the sounds emitted by the power source, but also sounds generated outside the vehicle, such as road noise, tire pattern noise, and wind noise that occur when the vehicle is in motion. If these sounds are transmitted inside the vehicle, they can cause discomfort to people, so soundproofing measures are taken using sound insulation and sound absorption materials in the engine, engine compartment, interior, body, and around the exhaust pipe.

[0003] For example, in Patent Document 1, the normal incidence sound absorption coefficient of a test specimen, in which a 1 mm thick foam film consisting of a base resin that forms open cells and expanded organic hollow particles with an average particle size of 0.1 to 3000 μm dispersed in the base resin and forming closed cells is bonded to a 10 mm thick nonwoven fabric, is measured and the sound absorption coefficient in the frequency range of 2000 to 4000 Hz is 81 to 92%. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-2617 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0005] Conventional sound-absorbing materials have been insufficient in addressing noise in the 500-1000Hz frequency range, which is considered unpleasant to humans. Furthermore, since the installation space for soundproofing materials is limited in vehicles such as automobiles, there is a need for sound-absorbing materials that are highly space-saving.

[0006] The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a laminated sound-absorbing material that has excellent sound absorption in the frequency range of 500 to 1000 Hz, which makes people feel uncomfortable, despite having a small thickness and being lightweight.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0007] As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors have reached the present invention. That is, the present invention is a laminated sound-absorbing material including at least one layer (A) and at least one layer (B), the layer (A) is made of a resin film, the layer (B) is made of a porous body, and the apparent density of the layer (A) is 0.9~1.3 g / cm 3 wherein the air permeability (A1, unit: cm 3 / cm 2 / sec) of the layer (A) conforming to JIS K6400 is 0 cm 3 / cm 2 / sec, the total thickness (T1, unit: mm) of the layer (A) is 0.1 to 1.0 mm, the apparent density of the layer (B) is 0.010~0.060 g / cm 3 wherein the air permeability of the layer (B) conforming to JIS K6400 is 3~150 cm 3 / cm 2 / sec, and the total thickness of the layer (B) is 10~35 mm, and it is a laminated sound-absorbing material. The layer (A) is positioned facing the sound source.

Effects of the Invention

[0008] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a laminated sound-absorbing material that has excellent sound absorption in the frequency range of 500 to 1000 Hz, which makes people feel uncomfortable, despite having a small thickness and being lightweight.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0009] The present invention is a laminated sound-absorbing material including at least one layer (A) and at least one layer (B). The layer (A) and the layer (B) may each be a single layer or a plurality of layers. The total thickness (T1, unit: mm) of layer (A) is 0.1 to 1.0 mm, preferably 0.15 to 0.50 mm. If it is less than 0.1 mm, the sound absorption rate in the low-frequency region will decrease, and if it exceeds 1.0 mm, the sound absorption material will become heavy. By press molding at appropriate temperature, time and pressure, layer (A) having the above thickness can be obtained.

[0010] The apparent density of layer (A) is 0.15 to 1.5 g / cm 3 and preferably 0.2 to 1.3 g / cm 3 and more preferably 0.9 to 1.3 g / cm 3 is. If it is less than 0.15 g / cm 3 , the sound absorption rate in the low-frequency region will decrease, and if it exceeds 1.5 g / cm 3 , the sound absorption material will become heavy. In order to make the apparent density within the above range, it can be adjusted to the preferred range by selecting the material of layer (A) and press molding the selected material at appropriate temperature, time and pressure. The apparent density of layer (A) can be measured in accordance with JIS K7222:2005.

[0011] The air permeability (A1, unit: cm 3 / cm 2 / sec) of layer (A) conforming to JIS K6400 is 0 to 10 cm 3 W / cm 2 W / sec, preferably 0 to 7 cm 3 W / cm 2 W / sec, most preferably 0 to 4 cm 3 W / cm 2 W / sec, particularly preferably 0 to 1 cm 3 W / cm 2 W / sec. If it exceeds 10 cm 3 W / cm 2 W / sec, the sound absorption rate in the low-frequency region will decrease. In order to make the air permeability (A1) within the above range, it can be adjusted to the preferred range by press molding at appropriate temperature, time and pressure.

[0012] The relationship between the air permeability (A1) of the layer (A) and the total thickness (T1) of the layer (A) preferably satisfies the following equation 1. This results in good sound absorption characteristics in the low-frequency range. Formula 1: (A1)≦11.111(T1)-1.111

[0013] The layer (A) preferably consists of at least one selected from the group consisting of resin film, compressed chip sheet, foamed resin sheet, and nonwoven fabric. The resin film is preferably made of urethane resin, urethane urea resin, polyvinyl chloride resin, or polyolefin resin. A compressed chip sheet refers to a sheet obtained by compressing and molding chipped resin or pulp by press processing, and urethane resin compressed chip sheets (hereinafter also referred to as compressed chip urethane sheets or compressed urethane chip sheets) and compressed chip urethane urea sheets are preferred. A foamed resin sheet refers to a sheet-shaped foamed resin (such as urethane foam and urethane urea foam), and includes resins that have been foamed into a sheet shape and compressed foams that have been press-formed into a sheet shape from foamed resins, with compressed urethane foam and compressed urethane urea foam being preferred. As the nonwoven fabric, synthetic fiber nonwoven fabrics are preferred, and short fiber nonwoven fabrics and long fiber nonwoven fabrics can be used. Compressed nonwoven fabrics that have undergone press processing are also acceptable. Layer (A) may consist of at least one selected from resin film, compressed chip sheet, foamed resin sheet, and nonwoven fabric, and may be composed of a single material or of multiple materials laminated together.

[0014] The total thickness of layer (B) is 10 to 65 mm, preferably 10 to 35 mm, and more preferably 15 to 30 mm. If the thickness is less than 10 mm, the sound absorption coefficient in the low-frequency range decreases, and if it exceeds 65 mm, the sound-absorbing material becomes heavy. Layer (B) having the above thickness can be obtained by cutting it to an appropriate thickness.

[0015] The apparent density of layer (B) is 0.005–0.080 g / cm³. 3 The concentration is preferably 0.008 to 0.060 g / cm³. 3 And more preferably 0.010 to 0.060 g / cm³. 3 The apparent density of the porous material in layer (B) can be brought within the aforementioned range by adjusting the amount of foaming agent. 0.005 g / cm³ 3 If the amount is less than 0.080 g / cm³, molding becomes difficult. 3 Beyond a certain point, the low-frequency sound absorption is poor. The apparent density of layer (B) can be determined in accordance with JIS K7222:2005.

[0016] The air permeability of layer (B) according to JIS K6400 is 0.1 to 250 cm. 3 / cm 2 The interval is / sec, preferably 3-220cm. 3 / cm 2 The interval is / sec, and more preferably 3 to 150 cm. 3 / cm 2 It is / sec. 250cm 3 / cm 2 If the rate exceeds / sec, the porous material strength will be insufficient. The air permeability of layer (B) can be adjusted to the above range by adjusting the amounts of foaming agent and baffling agent.

[0017] The layer (B) is preferably made of a porous material. A porous material means a material in which multiple fine pores are formed. Examples of porous materials include foamed resins (polyurethane foam, melamine foam, and rubber sponge, etc.), molded articles obtained by compression molding of pulverized foamed resins (such as chip urethane), nonwoven fabrics, woven fabrics, cotton, felt, and glass wool. Of these, foamed resins and nonwoven fabrics are preferred from the viewpoint of sound absorption in the low-frequency range, and urethane foam and nonwoven fabrics are more preferred. Layer (B) can be any porous material, and may be composed of a single material or multiple materials stacked together.

[0018] When the porous body is polyurethane foam, known methods can be applied as the method for producing the polyurethane foam. These methods include a mold molding foaming method in which a mixture of a polyol component (Q) and, if necessary, a catalyst (C), a foam stabilizer (I), a crosslinking agent, a connecting agent, and a foaming agent (K) is stirred and mixed, then stirred and mixed with a polyisocyanate component (B), and then injected into a suitable mold for foaming, or a slab stock foaming method in which foaming is performed without injecting into a suitable mold.

[0019] The laminated sound-absorbing material of the present invention is obtained by laminating the above layer (A) and the above layer (B). The method for laminating layer (A) and layer (B) is not particularly limited. Examples include foaming the urethane foam before resinification and bonding it to the other substrate, bonding it by frame lamination of the urethane foam, and bonding by heat melting. Layer (A) and layer (B) may also be bonded and laminated using an adhesive (such as spray adhesive) or double-sided tape. The thickness of the adhesive and double-sided tape is preferably 10 to 100 μm, and more preferably 20 to 50 μm.

[0020] If there are two or more layers (A) or layers (B), the laminated sound-absorbing material of the present invention is composed of three or more layers of laminated material by laminating layer (A) and layer (B).

[0021] When there are two or more layers (B), the layers (A) are preferably resin films, and examples of layers (B) include laminates having a first layer (B) which is a urethane foam layer (B1) and a second layer (B) which is a porous layer (B2). The apparent density of the urethane foam layer (B1) is more preferably 0.05 to 0.1 g / cm³ from the viewpoint of sound absorption in the low-frequency range and moldability. 3 And more preferably 0.05 to 0.07 g / cm³. 3 That is the case. The thickness of the urethane foam layer (B1) is more preferably 3 to 15 mm, and even more preferably 5 to 12 mm, from the viewpoint of sound absorption in the low frequency range and lightweight properties. The air permeability of the urethane foam layer (B1) is preferably 1 to 50 cm from the viewpoint of sound absorption. 3 / cm 2 / sec, and more preferably 1-10cm 3 / cm 2 It is / sec.

[0022] The apparent density of the porous layer (B2) is more preferably 0.005 to 0.060 g / cm³ from the viewpoint of sound absorption in the low-frequency range and moldability. 3 And more preferably 0.008 to 0.040 g / cm³. 3 The most preferred concentration is 0.010 to 0.025 g / cm³. 3 That is the case. The thickness of the porous layer (B2) is more preferably 10 to 50 mm, even more preferably 10 to 30 mm, and most preferably 10 to 20 mm, from the viewpoint of sound absorption in the low frequency range and lightweight properties. From the viewpoint of sound absorption, the air permeability of the porous layer (B2) is preferably 1 to 250 cm. 3 / cm 2 / sec, and more preferably 3-220cm 3 / cm 2 It is / sec.

[0023] The porous layer (B2) can be the same as the porous material exemplified as that constituting layer (B), and the preferred material is also the same.

[0024] When the layer (B) constituting the laminated sound-absorbing material of the present invention is a laminate of a urethane foam layer (B1) and a porous layer (B2), it is preferable that the urethane foam layer (B1) is placed between the layer (A) and the porous layer (B2). This arrangement achieves a higher sound absorption effect.

[0025] The method for laminating the urethane foam layer (B1) and the porous layer (B2) is not particularly limited. Examples include creating the urethane foam on the porous layer (B2) and laminating it, or bonding them by frame lamination of the urethane foam. Alternatively, a known adhesive can be applied to one or both of the opposing surfaces of the urethane foam layer (B1) and the porous layer (B2) and allowed to dry to bond them, or double-sided tape can be used to bond the urethane foam layer (B1) and the porous layer (B2). When the urethane foam layer (B1) and the porous layer (B2) are bonded with an adhesive or double-sided tape, the thickness of the adhesive layer or double-sided tape layer is preferably 10 to 100 μm, and more preferably 20 to 50 μm.

[0026] In the laminated sound-absorbing material of the present invention, it is preferable to arrange layer (A) in a direction opposite to the sound source. Layer (A) is formed from a material that is thinner than layer (B) and has low breathability along the direction of sound propagation. This allows the material to exhibit a sound-absorbing effect through membrane vibration, particularly in frequency bands that people find unpleasant, thereby achieving a sound-absorbing effect.

[0083] [Table 5]

[0084] The physical properties, basis weight of the laminated sound-absorbing material, and sound absorption performance of Examples 1-19 and Comparative Examples 1-9 were measured as follows.

[0085] <Apparent density of layer (A)> The apparent density was measured in accordance with JIS K7222:2005.

[0086] <Thickness of layer (A)> The thickness was measured in accordance with JIS K7130:1999.

[0087] <Air permeability> Measured in accordance with JIS K6400 (units are cm) 3 / cm 2 ( / sec).

[0088] <Apparent density of layer (B)> The apparent density was measured in accordance with JIS K7222:2005.

[0089] <Thickness of layer (B)> The thickness was measured in accordance with JIS K7248:2005.

[0090] <Weight of laminated sound-absorbing material> The weight (basis weight) of layer (B) in the laminated sound-absorbing material was calculated by multiplying the density of layer (B), measured according to the underwater displacement method of JIS K7112:1999, by the thickness of layer (B). If layer (B) is a nonwoven fabric, the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric was determined based on "mass per unit area" in JIS L-1913:2010, 6.2. If layer (B) is polyurethane foam, the apparent density of the porous material was measured in accordance with JIS K7222:2005 and calculated by multiplying it by the thickness. In Example 10, where layer (B) is composed of two types of layers, the basis weight of the laminated sound-absorbing material was defined as the sum of the basis weights of each layer (unit: kg / m). 2 ).

[0091] <Sound absorption coefficient of laminated sound-absorbing material with perpendicular incidence> The normal incidence sound absorption coefficient was measured according to the method compliant with JIS A 1405-2. A sound absorption coefficient of 1 indicates that all sound is absorbed, and a coefficient of 0 indicates that all sound is reflected. "Sound absorption coefficient at frequencies of 500-1000 Hz" means "the average value of the sound absorption coefficient at frequencies of 500-1000 Hz."

[0092] Tables 2-5 show that the laminated sound-absorbing material of the present invention, despite its small thickness and light weight, exhibits excellent sound absorption in the 500-1000Hz frequency range, which is considered uncomfortable for humans. [Industrial applicability]

[0093] Despite its small thickness and light weight, the laminated sound-absorbing material of the present invention exhibits excellent sound absorption in the 500-1000Hz frequency range, which is considered unpleasant to humans.
