Damping Glue DG-1000

DG-1000 can be used in combination with:

• Steel
• Aluminium
• Concrete floor
• MDF
• Wood and other porous materials.

The high damping loss factor is obtained over a wide frequency and temperature range. The result of an optimized loss factor and shear modulus of the damping material is a big reduction of the structural vibrations and therefore also the radiated sound as well as an increased transmission loss.

Acoustic Properties

The stiffness ratio between the constraining layers should preferably be 1:3. Best result is obtained with ratio 1:1.

DG-1000 is easy to apply and increases the damping of the base structure which leads to lower vibrations, increased impact damping and less noise radiation.

Applications

• Structural damping of floors in bus and rail vehicles, stages and walls.
• Impact damping of floors, e.g. in buildings and trains.
• Increased transmission loss of walls and doors.
• Further more is the glue an excellent solution for loudspeaker constructions.

Damped and suspended concrete floor system with improved impact damping and reduced noise transmission:

A floor construction with concrete elements (such as 200 mm thick hollow “HDF 20” elements) coated with approximately 2 mm damping compound type DG-1000 and about 50 mm concrete casted onto the DG-1000, creates a well damped floor system with reduced impact noise.

In order to further improve the acoustic performance of the floor system the concrete elements may be placed on elastic decouplers (e.g Rubloc), decoupling the floor system from the building.
