Soundproofing - Mass loaded Vinyl Industrial Residential



Wholesale MLV residential/commercial loaded vinyl soundproofing

is a specialty developed MLV layer loaded vinyl sound barrier product offering superior soundproofing. Mass barrier damper sheet offers STC Ratings up to 37, It is a low cost material 1/8" $1.10 per sq ft. Soundproofing with MLVused for a variety of marine and land based room soundproofing. The drawings below shows MLV barrier installed as a suspended mass loaded barrier. This typical application would improve transmission loss between Residential, commercial office, Home Theaters adjoining room spaces. The combination of the damping and stiffness properties of MLV vinyl sound barrier gives it excellent performance as a combined layer and damper when applied to partition panels and lightweight structural bulkheads, reducing room transmission of both airborne and structure Borne noise attenuation. Application direct to panels is best done with pre-applied pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) backed up be minimal fasteners or staples. Ideal product for sound studio, garage, basement and recording studio and much more. UL 94 HF-1 MVSS 302 1SO 4589-3
Tolerances are 0 +/- 1/8" for width.

There are several methods to soundproof a room with Mass loaded vinyl sound barrier;

Pre Construction using MLV vinyl and rock wool or Quiet zone batt as illustrated in the graphic below, place rockwool between the 2 X 4's then place Mass vinyl barrier over the studs, finally placing a layer of sheet rock as the final layer. STC values listed in illustrations below. Can be used for, ceilings, walls & floors. One deviation of this method is; using resilient channel.

Post Construction you would need to place furring strips double thick 16" on center, then place 1" Rockwool in-between the furring strips then place MLV vinyl - over the studs, finally placing a layer of sheet rock as the final layer.
 

Rockwool is made of slag, which is a recycled steel product, and rock, a trap rock mined in Texas...those are the only raw materials in rockwool insulation.rock wool insulation we use "coke" which is a recycled material from coal. it is used to make the heat hotter in the manufacturing process, in order to save energy...rockwool is the safest insulation on the market today...it also has one of the best thermal insulating properties as well as a superior sound control while not supporting mold or mildew. all while not having to add any chemicals...many other insulation products on the market today are either all chemical, foams, or have chemicals added to them to keep them fire retardant, cellulose...

E.2.3 Coefficient of absorption. All materials absorb some sound, and the percentage of sound is measured (in laboratory tests) as a coefficient of absorption. Coefficients of absorption range in value from close to 0 (no absorption) to nearly 1.0 (100 % efficient); these coefficients vary as a function of frequency. Materials that are most efficient at absorbing sound include soft porous "fuzzy» materials such as glass fiber, mineral wool fiber, carpet, curtains, acoustic tile, and other specialty materials. Materials that depend on their porosity to absorb sound should not be painted which will clog their pores, and thus degrade their acoustical performance.

MLV vinyl is a specialty developed layer product offering superior soundproofing. MLV Damper sheet offers STC Ratings up to 53, It is a low cost material used for a variety of marine and land based building room soundproofing. The drawings below shows MLV vinyl installed as a suspended Mass  barrier. This typical application would improve transmission loss between adjoining room spaces "Residential mass barrier". The combination of the damping and stiffness properties of  MLV loaded vinyl gives it excellent performance as a combined layer and damper when applied to partition panels and lightweight structural bulkheads, reducing room transmission of both airborne and structure Borne noise attenuation. Application direct to panels is best done with pre-applied pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) backed up by minimal fasteners or staples. Ideal product for sound studio music room, Residential soundproofing, garage, basement and recording studio and much more.
