Acoustical
ARPRO Benefits
-
Acoustical - Noise reduction levels up to 10 times that of alternative materials.
-
thermal insulation - Outstanding thermal insulation for temperature sensitive applications.
-
structural strength - Load bearing structural support from high strength to weight ratio.
-
chemically inert - Unaffected by exposure to oil, grease, petroleum and most chemicals.
ARPRO® is a unique (simultaneously porous) closed cell bead foam that features air pockets, or voids, within the hollow cylinder-shaped bead structure; these extra voids increase the number of air pockets, which enhance acoustic performance.
ARPRO® Porous is highly durable and resists multiple impacts without damage. Unlike many other acoustic materials, ARPRO® Porous is not fibrous, discharges no particles when abraded, and semi-structural.
Automotive engineers benefit from ARPRO® Porous in key applications to reduce noise, vibration and harshness (NVH), with tests showing noise reduction levels of up to ten times that of alternative materials. ARPRO® Porous is used extensively in car interiors to reduce noise levels without increasing weight. ARPRO® is also used in domestic and industrial HVAC-R component casings specifically to reduce pump, valve and control mechanism noise.
