Abstract |
This study was performed to manufacture a rigid sound absorbing material by increasing the continuous void ratio of cellular concrete, thereby achieving an increase in sound absorption ratio and an enhancement in strength of the cellular concrete. By the experiments, it was determined that an increase in sound absorption ratio is achieved by increasing the added amount of air voids, thereby increasing the continuous void ratio. When the material had a thickness of 5 cm, a satisfactory average sound absorption ratio of 70% was obtained at a continuous void ratio of 40% or more. An increase in the thickness of the sound absorbing material resulted in an increase in sound absorption ratio in a super bass range. The specific gravity of cellular concrete meeting an average sound absorption ratio of 70% was 0.4 at a material thickness of 5 cm, and 0.6 or less at a material thickness of 7 cm. The compressive strength of the cellular concrete having a specific gravity of 0.4 meeting an average sound absorption ratio of 70% or more was 1.37 Mpa at a cement fineness of 3,000. This compressive strength was increased to 3.34 MPa at a cement fineness of 8,000. Accordingly, it was determined that the compressive strength of cellular concrete having continuous voids increases with a higher cement fineness.
