2. Acoustic plaster - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_plaster

   Instead, conventional plaster or drywall systems were more frequently used in homes and other environments where interior aesthetics is a more important consideration but these are, however, not ideal in sound absorption. [4] Limitations of acoustic panels or conventional drywall systems also affect the flexibility of room configuration and uses.

3. Popcorn ceiling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popcorn_ceiling

   Popcorn ceiling texture. A popcorn ceiling, also known as a stipple ceiling or acoustic ceiling, is a ceiling with one of a variety of spray-on or paint-on treatments. [1] The bumpy surface is created by tiny particles of vermiculite or polystyrene, which gives the ceiling sound-deadening properties. Mixtures are available in fine, medium, and ...

4. Acoustic panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_panel

   An acoustic board is a board made from sound absorbing materials, designed to provide sound insulation. [3] [4] Between two outer walls sound absorbing material is inserted and the wall is porous. Thus, when sound passes through an acoustic board, the intensity of sound is decreased. The loss of sound energy is balanced by producing heat energy.

5. Soundproofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundproofing

   A pair of headphones being tested inside an anechoic chamber for soundproofing. Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation.There are several methods employed including increasing the distance between the source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using ...

6. Noise reduction coefficient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction_coefficient

   A reverberation chamber is used to test the sound absorption coefficients and NRC of a material. The noise reduction coefficient (commonly abbreviated NRC) is a single number value ranging from 0.0 to 1.0 that describes the average sound absorption performance of a material. An NRC of 0.0 indicates the object does not attenuate mid-frequency ...

7. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

   Adding absorptive materials to the interior surfaces of rooms, for example fabric-faced fiberglass panels and thick curtains, will result in a decrease of reverberated sound energy within the room. However, absorptive interior surface treatments of this kind do not significantly improve the sound transmission class. [ 19 ]
